Unemployed during COVID-19

I’m feeling anxiety about Coronavirus. Does anyone else think that the virus is being used by the government for population control? I don’t know if I’m paranoid.

Posting my question again:::
How Barclays India helped it's employees during COVID?? Did they fire anyone???

Hi Fishes,

Cctc:6.5
Designation:Engineer

I joined in jan2020 but the training period of our entire batch was extended due to covid. Hence getting first appraisal in sept 2021.
Thanks in Advance😀

Is anyone changing their retirement plans based on COVID-19 realities and the future of work.

So… 3.5 year relationship came crashing in Jan due to covid depression, work burn out, lockdown etc. We have stayed in contact and recently he has come around to apologizing and considering getting back together. However he also revealed he started seeing someone casually 4 weeks ago and technically is cheating on her by meeting me for coffee and to discuss this. I’m upset that he’s dating others but shouldn’t be right? I mean, I did the same. Still hurts though. And I told him to sort that out

How hard is it to pivot to a BDR/SDR role as a tech consultant from a boutique firm with 1-yr experience? I don’t have previous sales experience, except for my time at a call center which lasted for two months until covid hit. What should I be doing now to bridge this knowledge gap? Is there anyone willing to give a referral?

More people died of covid under Biden than under Trump.

People that have small children - how do you deal with your child’s stress and separation anxiety when you go to work? My 4-year old goes berserk almost every day at some point relating to me having to work. The worst part is that I’ve been working from home bc of Covid and I’m literally just walking upstairs after giving hugs and kisses and saying see you soon 800 times. My spouse is a stay at home parent, but that doesn’t seem to matter to my son. A piece of me dies everyday because of this.

A sleepy summer Sunday watching the end of a great test cricket match, grabbing a beer with friends and glorious weather. Honestly it is the first day since covid that life feels normal for me

Sometime I feel like I'm operating at lower capacity than during the height of Covid trying to navigate billables and no childcare/remote school. Anyone else feel this way? Are we just burnt out from all the working nights and weekend in 2020/2021?

For folks that are in the interview process, are u negotiating for best salary or just taking what you get , asking because market is slow cause of Covid.

After COVID crisis how can I get an idea of average salary of Global Sales Director in Dubai vs. cost of living?

How is anyone surprised that people like Caputo are highly politicized pieces of the COVID response

Just took FAR for the fourth time today 😂 LOTS of not for profit questions and even sims were not for profit!!!!! Definitely more than 5-15% Becker said!!! I got like 60% was based on NFP!

How is Paysafe Group? I've been selected there in SD. Is it a good company to switch from ZS Associates?

Does anyone have suggestions for what a salary should be for a Digital Marketing Analyst | Paid Social & Performance Media? I have 1 year of experience, the job asks for 0-1 year of experience. I feel I over meet the qualifications in some areas and just meet them in others. The recruiter said 50k is the salary the company is offer. I know I can negotiate. What are your thoughts on what the salary should be?

Sales and Trading vs PE? What is comp, WLB and career trajectory like. Doing my MBA now and likely going into consulting, but not sure. Might plan to exit to PE but if S&T offers decent hours and similar pay, may just skip the whole consulting to PE business.

Can someone tell me , How many days Barclays will take to respond to any job applications.

Anyone working for AstraZeneca or Pfizer within oncology?

Anyone here work @ Novo Nordisk? I have a sales interview tomorrow morning for diabetes care specialist

Anyone who has started up a side hustle whilst working in consulting - is it generally a good idea to let your employer know or will they make your life difficult/try to push you out if they know?

(Context - I need the extra income to have a shot at affording grad school, I work for a small boutique, job contract was ambiguous on the issue. Side hustle is selling stuff I make as a hobby on Amazon)

Thanks!

Anyone else think this corporate life isn’t for them?

Have about 5k to invest - should I do FXAIX or FSKAX?

How much are Indiana CMA's making??

I'm holding an offer from MakeMyTrip and another offer from OlaElectric. Ninjacart is willing to make me an offer. But they're saying that they'd discuss the offer only after the other company that I'm interviewing with has come up with an offer first. There's been a delay from HRs of the companies in a similar way. How do I urge them to send me the offer letter without sounding pushy? I had reached out to some of the HRs myself. Would that be too awkward if I accept & back out their offer?

Is 80k cash + 20k company share a good deal for a junior dev role in the bay area?🙏

what's the salary range of SM at EY GDS assurance practice ?

Is buddy and counsellor same in EY Gds?

Do HCL revise offered salary or counter offer if other in hand offer shared?

I have a consulting/PE interview on Friday, please recommend consulting books or sites to read. Need to speak consulting language
