HR and it’s the holidays

like

All offers at any firm have to be reviewed by the compensation team, the benefits team, legal, and probably the business as well. It takes time

like

Bruh I waited almost a month to get a written offer cause of holidays, be patient

And everyone has to sign off in the system before the official letter can be transmitted.

Salary approvals

This is the answer. Sign-offs are required for offers, and peeps are out on holiday.

Waited a month and just got to know that they are having a hiring freeze 🤣🤣

We needed finance approval because the offer we decided to give you was 10k under what we typically pay. Happy holidays.

P1- Plot twist I am considering other offers maybe so better come correct with your offer

Waiting on an offer too because the CFO needs to sign off and he’s currently on vacay abroad. The wait and frustration is real.

Hi everyone, I am getting ready for a job interview, and need to create a media plan. I was hoping someone can help me with the next task: basically, I need to create inventory recommendation based on past performance. What I am very confused about is that they gave me Booked Impressions (=4M), but in the task it says I should assume there is unlimited inventory. Am I supposed to use this 4M only to calculate spend, ROAS, etc., but can actually have unlimited allocated impressions? Thank you!

Hi Fishes
I want to share very bad experience I had at
Mastercard
I was given offer by Mastercard in month of Dec The hike was less but looking at brand & other perks I accepted the offer & was looking forward to joining them.I got few offers & I went back to them for sole purpose of renegotiating CTC, to have a industry standard hike. They didn't reverted back for 2-3 days & just dropped a mail that they are revoking initial offer as well on grounds that they didn't like i gave other interview
