If you were an animal, what would you be? I was floored, such a shocking question

That is a great answer! I think I said dolphin because theyre smart, but I think i blocked it out lol

What is the most dangerous animal you would fight? I literally had no idea what to say! I don't want to fight an animal haah.

The first marketing job I ever had came with this fun little question during the interview. Do you plan on getting pregnant anytime soon?

Anyone using Edward Jones? Feel like we did a mistake and rolled over all my husbands retirement accounts from different employers and our kids 529 under them Jan 2020. Since then market is down and accounts lost20%. But the fees every month is pretty high around $200. I am worried to move it to fidelity or some other place and manage myself(not very confident), then I have to sell all of the Edward Jones managed funds and buy new. sell low buy low makes sense but don’t want to loose anymore.

Had a first round interview scheduled for a large CPG brand. My interviewer never called me, and I emailed following up to confirm the call. It’s been over a day and no response. What is going on with recruiters? I tried giving them the benefit of the doubt, but not even an email back saying “something came up” or “we’ve moved on” ? I’ve been ghosted after every final interview during my recent job search, but never had I been ghosted before even having the first call??
