Anyone take SHRM? How many hours did you study?
Got an offer for a sales applications manager role at Cisco and a Strategic AE role at Amazon - both are basically the same pay (130~ base, 220 OTE)
I don’t have any friends at either company so I was curious if anyone has experience and can shed some light on culture/ work life balance to help me make a decision? Thanks for the help guys!
Safe to see friends this weekend?

Hi Fishes
I would like to know about the client interviews (especially in data science or machine learning roles).
Are these interviews tough?
Are these interviews meant to assess technical knowledge? For example, what is binomial distribution, what are different data structures in python, ml algorithms etc.
I would request each of the nagarrians to share their thoughts irrespective of the technologies you are working.
I am thankful to you for taking time and helping me out.

Got a random email from a supposed Amazon recruiter for a SDE position (which is not at all a fit). The email is amazon.com domain and there are no red flags in the body but it doesn't feel like an Amazon recruiter due to the tacky signature, etc. Has anyone seen this kind of cold-calling from FAANG recruiter?

What's the point of working if you can enjoy the fruits of your labor?
Also - tell your husband to read Peak Performance by magnets and stuhlburg.
Basically the book talks about all of these people whose performance went up when they worked less.
I implemented that approach a few years ago and I am much happier and 3x more successful
Thank you!

More of a solidarity reply vs anything helpful but sounds like my SO. He works from 8AM to 3AM every day for his own business. We’re fine with it for now because we’re late 20s and DINK however the plan is this is to set us up for success before we have kids and once we have kids we’re dialing it back biggg time. The no mental escape hits home big time - SO can’t go anywhere without their laptop / wifi. The way I deal with it is knowing it’s temporary and the $ is good but I’m sure as I get older that will change too🤷♀️
PS We are DINK and I don’t have any concerns with him helping or doing his part because obviously he’s at max capacity. I just feel bad ☹️ and wonder if the money is worth it.
Not healthy but he may need to do it for the business. Can he hire someone to train and help out? That sounds hard on your relationship. I used to work close to that and wreaked havoc on my sleep and relationship. Good luck.

One persons opinion - there are points in time where you just make a strategic decision, together, to do the grind so you can enjoy the fruits later. If that’s where you are at, do it eyes wide open. It’s for a better tomorrow for you.
If this is it where you are at, and you don’t believe in it, that’s a different story.
All I’m saying is, no matter the profession, to get somewhere usually takes some degree of grind. And there is no harm in that, making the sacrifices to get where you want. But you have to both be in it, and you have to recognize the sacrifice that it is going to take, and then just dive in.
