I have just got an options trader job at a prop trading firm. But I knew nothing about options/trading/finance. The firms said they’ll be officially training us once we start. But in the meantime, what are some books/resources that you would recommend to start learning first?

Has anyone set up a template follow-up email?

I think people who “kiss” their dogs/pet on their mouths are disgusting

I’m planning to buy the study materials for the SHRM-CP certificate through Amazon. What are the best ones to obtain?

New fish looking for career guidance.

I'm a corporate recruiter with 3 years of experience. Finishing my degree in HRM 5/2022. I'm thinking of getting my SHRM -CP shortly after graduation.

I'm not sure of where to go after that, but I doubt I will stick with recruiting or my current firm.

Has anyone here started off in recruiting and branched out to other HR functions? Do you like your new role? Do you wish you stuck with recruiting?

How am I working out a part time employees holiday entitlement? The employee works 16 hours a week over 2 days.

My wife is in sales at Mercedes and she has been averaging $200k a year and growing YoY. She loves her job, however she works long days and barely gets time off. We plan on having kids within the next year or two, and it’s highly u likely that she’ll be able to keep her current gig. We want to find a career that allows her to work remote or that at least gives her a better work life balance so that she can see her kids grow up. Should she get certifications to give her a shot at adtech?Too late?

I have 4 yoe and done certifications like admin pd1 from Salesforce and copado fundamentals 1 and copado fundamentals 2

Need references for Salesforce developer role.

Just starting to invest, should I make an account with Vanguard or Fidelity?
