What are your thoughts on personalized resume writing services? I’m considering hiring one of these to stand out in the search of a new job.
My resume looks good (1 page, bullet points on achievements, direct language, etc), but I feel I’m not getting as many interviews as my experience would enable.

Is it a red flag if during an interview the partner asks how your billable hours were last year? Could be just a standard question but I wasn’t sure.. I’ve never been asked that before in interviews.

Hi - I’m a PM at a reasonably well known company. I don’t have an MBA and see lots of folks asking about needing that to get an interview at FB, G or A. I can confirm that an MBA isn’t a hard req as I’ve had recruiters reach out and offers to move forward to interviews before. I’ve never decided to actually move forward though as I don’t see the appeal. I really want to know, what’s the thing that excites you all about working at a massive FAANG type company?

Does anyone in-house care about cover letters? I had an interview last week where the interviewer (a tech person and nonlawyer) said they found it odd that I submitted a cover letter. Aren’t they basically required? Or is this just a law firm thing?

Greetings Fishes ,

I had given interview for Python Developer role in Mindtree and my interview went very well.
After a week or so I received a mail that you are almost there and a Google link to fill some details.
It has been 2 weeks and I have not heard anything from their side and I don't have any HR no because no HR discussion has happened yet.
Can anyone tell me how much time it usually takes for next step and all.

Thanks in advance

What’s everyone’s thoughts on applying to several different positions within the same company? I’m looking at about 4 each with different focuses but mainly revolving around data analytics or entry level project analyst/coordinator. A friend of mine said it’s not a good look as it shows the company that you’re desperate. I really disagree, I feel it’s in your best interest to apply as many as you feel qualified for. Any thoughts?

I’m interested in a role at Accenture that I feel like I’m a great fit for. Anyone interested in referring me?

Role Reversal - Stock Market & Crypto Market

I have a dormant side hustle on with career transition and job hunting in banking. As some background, I've been in banking for several years, separately trained as a life/career coach, and freelanced for a CV/resume writing company for three years. I'm not ready to build out the hustle just yet (so I'm not pitching for business). But I want to ask, beyond interview training, what kinds of products and services would you find useful?

I’m a fairly new grad. Got licensed in January and started working in February. I moved across the state for this job taking my family with me. Now 4 months in it’s such a toxic environment. Unethical, unhealthy. I’m looking to apply to other places. Do I put this company on my resume to show I’ve been working since I graduated or is it worse to show I want to leave after only 4 months? Also, absolutely cannot have them contact my current job or use them as a reference. Put them or no?

Hi everyone! Does anybody here have been interviewed for Treasury Liquidity Management at Citibank?

Any tips/things to keep in mind for a phone interview? It’s the final stage.

Does anyone else feel that we’re being told “everyone is hiring” but no one is ACTUALLY hiring? More so, putting people through the ringer then saying “we’re on a hiring freeze/position put on hold”. People are not just candidates you put in your back pocket for a rainy day as much as agency’s may think they’re doing a justice by adding you to the “pipeline”. Just a ton of corporate buzz words all leading to “this job is on hold for now”. Recruiting has become a joke of a position

Hey team - I’m currently interviewing for outside roles and I’m curious to hear from recruiters and hiring managers: why do you ask why candidates want to leave their current org? Thanks in advance!

I am on my 3rd and final round interview next week for a job I am very excited about. I am interviewing for a procurement manger job and will be meeting with their regional finance manager. What kind of questions do you think I can except from this role? I have never had to interview with a financial person before. Thanks!

Interview processes involve meeting with 2-3 people. By the time you get to the third interview/person what sort of questions should I ask as the candidate? Seems like you always have to ask questions just to seem engaged but really at that point questions should’ve been answered… idk any tips

Hi when looking to move roles. Do employers value experience over a list of accredited courses or do they demand a mix of both.
If your employer put conditions on attending training would you do it? Or would it make you feel undervalued.

Is it’s okay to start interviewing with company’s even though you don’t plan on leaving your job for another year or so?

I've applied and networked for my dream job and didn't get an interview this time. Also dissatisfied with compensation and some of the responsibilities at my current job but have a lot of opportunity to learn. So the question is do I stay where I'm not thrilled to be now because it's good experience to set me up for the dream job next time there's an opening, or do I leave now to an option that's better pay and more interesting but farther off the path towards my long term goal?

Out of curiosity, how bad is it to apply to the same job twice and let’s say within two weeks. I guess like let’s say I have a more updated resume two weeks later and want the employer to see my most updated one instead? Also, I have had many jobs before and should I take out the ones that are irrelevant? At the same time, I don’t want the employer to think I have a gap year or something.

Been since May 23rd that I’ve completed my background check. Called the 3rd party company and they said the background check has been sent to the hiring company for review as of last Friday. Should I wait another day before following up with my recruiter about the status of the background check? I don’t suspect there to be any crazy thing, but I’m just anxious. I’ve just never had a background check take at or over a week. Advice?
