I did industrials.. yuck...

Instead of looking at it just as “why industrials” try “why industrials at that bank” — do they have a strong track record in the space? Do you have a relationship with any of the team members? Do you have a particular interest in LevFin vs. equity offerings? All can give you valid talking points for why industrials

You want to take a job covering something you’re not interested in? Seems like a bad idea. I digress. Might be good to talk about how parts of industrials play a role across many different industries/sectors, some parts are lagging behind in tech and innovation may positively affect/make it more interesting soon

Always read about people moving to industry for 20%+ increases with RSUs, but the offer for my move is about the same I'm making now in NYC. Think I will take it anyway but curious to hear the consensus view.

Anyone have any idea when the hiring freeze might end within AWS ProServ? I’m currently at Amazon and have a TS clearance, PMP & CSM. I come from a Big4 consulting firm with a background in Enterprise Performance. I’ll be honest and say I’m not feeling very safe in my current role with the ongoing layoffs. Instead of leaving, I’d love to go back to my “consulting roots” and join the ProServ team. I’m taking my AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam next weekend. Hoping this freeze is lifted soon.

It means ICOs are no longer open to anyone. You have to be a certified investor with the SEC. This is why Filecoin is conducting their ICO with CoinList instead of on their own. CoinList ensures their ICO is only open to certified Wall Street investors and makes sure FileCoin's ICO is treated as a normal IPO.

Granted please correct me because IPO investing is something I don't know a ton about.
