Any downsides to leaving a “Counsel” role and moving into a “Legal Affairs” role? Still practicing and representing the company, just a difference of titles, so core work remains the same - what do you think?

Anyone know why BMS is hiring like crazy? During an economy like this, and right after an acquisition I'd expect more internal reshuffling than external hiring.

Hi guys, I joined care ratings about 5 months back. However I had been asked to move from Research to ratings due to high work load.
However now the company is asking me to move back to research. It has been 5 months and I have been trying to adapt to this company. I feel like quitting this job already. It is frustrating. Any recommendations??

How long did it take you to find the right position the first time you went in-house? I am 5 months into it and regretting turning down the (lowball) offer I got a couple months ago.

Any Atomic Habit readers here? I’m brainstorming identity-based habits for two things I want to change:

-I want to bill more hours, so my goal is to become the type of person who bills at least 8 a day
-I want to drink less alcohol, so my goal is to become the type of person who drinks occasionally

Neither of these feel that helpful. Any one have suggestions for other identity-based goals that get at these changes I want to make?

Hi after technical discussion in Infosys I got mail to upload PAN Card, offer letter or compensation letter, photo and application form to fill and upload.
Can anyone plz confirm whether I’m selected for technical round?

A friend of mine applied for a job at Bain and he said part of application requested his SAT scores! What’s the point of asking for his test scores? He has a degree.

What is the drug culture like at your office? I assume people don’t openly talk about what they do in their free time if illicit, but they may do so quietly or you can otherwise tell.
Do you get the impression many people do them? If so, soft drugs (ex - weed)? Hard drugs? Non-prescribed study drugs? Frequency? At work-sponsored social functions? To an extent that it’s noticeable/problematic?

Taking my shot in tech sales. Consulting was great experience but enjoyed the relationship and BD aspect more and didn’t see myself climbing to partner. Starting in a junior BD Rep role to learn prospecting and earn quota history. Took a big paycut for the potential future earnings as an Account Exec. Did I dun goof? Probably. But I’ll regret it forever if I didn’t take my chance now when I’m still single and young-ish.

Update got fired: Based on previous post to pick up a Lower CTC (offer $$) or not
I'm planning on taking a lower money job

How's a response to my future hire a year later

I got laid off due to covid. I picked up this opportunity to pay my bills (40% lower Money)

So had to do this for a while

Ideal firms in the DC area to exit to for Strategy/Business Ops roles? Obviously would love FAANG, but they have limited strategy roles in the area

Professional summary for a resume with 2 YOE - yay or nay? Mine sounds a bit cookie cutter but I’m wondering if I should leave it.

Can anyone please refer me within industry. Looking to move on from consulting after 7 years. Currently based out of NY but willing to relocate.

Interviewed for dreamy job in dream city last week. Got a ton of buy signs from everyone I met with, especially CEO & CTO. HR said they would reach out early this week but I haven’t heard back yet

What’s the longest you’ve had to wait on an offer in this climate?

🟢 Anyone interested in joining Accenture? I have been helping two of our recruiting leads fill roles across all our service areas. Happy to help get qualified folks to the front of the line! DM me 🔴

If you’re a core SME for a large tech implementation, what’s the right way to exit/give two weeks notice?

If you got a job at FAANG do you find out within the week If you got the job after on-site ? 2 weeks if you haven’t gotten it?

Freddie Mac? The good, the bad, the ugly?
I have a buddy that reached out and wants me to backfill a position that he used to work on. It would be a 20% pay increase, but the work is IT policy related which is what I've been doing. I personally want to get into cloud. He says I can move around once I get in.

I interviewed final round with AWS the other day and several others I know interviewed for same job req with same recruiter on same day. Some have already gotten rejections. Is this a good sign? Or just that the panel maybe hasn’t met yet?

Anyone here at DoorDash? Looking at a couple roles there posted in the past few weeks.

Anyone here who made the exit from Big 4/MBB consulting to a VC? If so, I’d love to hear about how the experience is so far. (Not to mention the WLB and comp!) I’m considering a career change but have no one in my network I can go to for insights. Thx! 🙏🏾

Anyone witness slackers who got into companies you have no idea how? Had a coworker who does jack chit at work besides chatting on Facebook yet lands at a faang company? I guess if he brings the same work ethic he will be spit out for sure. Or maybe he just had no interest in doing project work.

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.

What books would you recommend for someone wanting to get better at sales?

thoughts on wayfair?

Ghosted by salesforce after final round. Has this happened to anyone?

Is it smart to follow up with HR with an “ultimatum” (don’t know what else to call it)? Still no decision a month after final rd, keep being told positive feedback and I’ll hear by X date but don’t...
