I was a EY and moved to UBS, got stuck due to visa reasons, pay is low, bonus is a joke, IT is ridiculous, some group has better work life balance. Recruiting paperwork and lawyers also a clown. Go figure.

I am a 5 year experienced developer and am applying for position as a developer in bank. I have cleared the assignment, interview and soft skills. I next have an offer interview scheduled but it’s with the IT chapter lead and the Manager instead of the recruiter. That feels bit weird and I feel they would talk me on a low salary because I am “not so experienced”. I did interview at another company earlier and they refused to pay the salary I asked for because I wasn’t senior enough. Any tips ?

Why do recruiters waste candidates time by asking them to pursue jobs with a lower title, less compensation and a smaller scope? There is so much information available online today I just simply don’t understand why there is such a disconnect. For context, my current TC is around 325k and I have a Sr. PM title at Amazon. I frequently get recruited for PM roles at small companies offering 80-100k. What is the recruiters thought process?

Hello,

I want to switch my current job to Equity Research. Can anyone please refer me?

I am a recently passed out CA with 4+ years of BIG4 experience (including internship).

My gf and I are having a big discussion and I would love to get your thoughts on this. It’s about how much we keep in touch and communicate when I’m on the road. She needs to hear from me everyday multiple times and if I don’t answer her texts within a few hours, she can get quite controlling (text over and over again, also on my work phone, asks what I am doing and gets upset). I am not used to that and have the trust if she doesn’t text back, that it’s for good reasons, busy at work…. (Ctd)
