What was your biggest failure as a hiring manager and what did you learn from it? I'm a fairly new manager so I am feeling quite nervous and would love to hear your tips or advice :)

I don’t feel like this is inherently bad, but something to be mindful of. When I was still new to the hiring side of things, sometimes I would not know the answer to questions that somebody would ask, and I was up front and honest about that. One time somebody gave me SUCH a hard time over it, I was kind of baffled! At the time I was so hard on myself over it, reality though you should just be honest and tell somebody you can get back to them. Don’t let them undermine you. And the bigger point, you will learn from doing and that’s ok!

wow! I can't believe they were that aggressive about it!

Boss: just do what is informed to be done, Don try to be over smart
Employee : I think this is the smartest way to jus DM Directly instead of getting likes & other reactions. Do you think that's really imp.?
Boss : in his mind this guy is too much chaalo...

1. On what grounds will the recruiter offer you a better pay. Will this not create a negative impression?
2. Can i start looking out for jobs after i put down my papers considering my skills are Snowflake, Informatica, IICS, SQL, API with 8 YOE
3.What salary should I target for the above experience and skills.

Trying to get ahead of my caseload feels like trying to climb a hill made of loosely-packed pebbles. No matter how much I scrabble, I’m sliding closer and closer to the bottom.

How do you get caught up (or even ahead) when you’re always behind? Assume that all things that can be offloaded have been offloaded. I cannot take one more all nighter trying to get a motion drafted two days before the deadline because I couldn’t get to it earlier.

Interested in joining the Reserves, but I’m guessing that’s way too much with a consulting career? No ROTC or previous military experience so I’d have to go through OCS/OTS as well.
Or is it better to wait until I exit to industry and pursue my interest in the military then?
Any and all advice appreciated.

Hi Everyone,
I have a query. Not sure if this is the right forum for it, but let me just ask it here.
I have completed my B.Tech. on 2020 and got a job in an MNC with a 3.8LPA, but due to COVID, the onboarding was delayed to Feb 2021. During this time, I had enrolled myself for a distance M.Tech. degree.
I recently joined a new company with a 10.1LPA a month back.
Just two weeks back, my M.Tech. degree is completed.
Should I have some increment in my new company as to my M.Tech. completion?
