Hi Everyone,

I am currently working at Meta as a Recruiting Coordinator under contract. That contract will soon come to term in July. There hasn’t been any talks about extending my contract, so I am getting very nervous about potentially being out of work in July. I am a first gen corporate worker, and I have about 5 years of experience in recruitment. I have also recently finished my Masters in HR Management, so I wanted to jump on here and see if anyone has any tips for landing a new role?

Bounce tomorrow/Tuesday then going short with oct expirations

Welcome to the bowl, Please keep your posts focused towards Mastercard and tone as positive as possible.

Cheers 🍻

Hi fishes

I have been selected for Consultant position for Mastercard. Its been 10 days since I have submitted my documents.
HR called once last week for salary negotiation but hasn’t called back since.

Should i be worried?

Is there any transport available to go to Mastercard Pune office from Hinjawadi?

Has anyone considered shifting from consulting to teaching? Doing PhD from top IIMs and working as faculty?

How hard is a career pivot from digital advertising to a product manager or even developer? I’m learning python 🐍 and at the point where I’m working on a pretty advanced project. I think having technical skills in combination with digital marketing can increase my net worth in the long run .

I’m thinking of making a switch from 4YOE in Industry to Public as a senior associate in Assurance. Do PA firm expect you to already know everything, or do they provide training to help you catch on? How challenging is it coming from industry to PA? What could be some of their expectations? And how do you exceed that?

Any referal for 2 year, security engineer in global logic??

Had a really bad day 😞 I don’t know why I keep doing this to myself. Things will be going well and then out of nowhere I get blackout drunk. I am tired of feeling sick and anxious from drinking. I don’t really even want to drink sometimes but do it anyway. Blacked out last night, and still feel sick now. I’ve never shared with anyone that I have this problem, until I found this message board. I have so much anxiety that I won’t be able to get this under control. I feel isolated and sad.

Did the billable hours bonus not get paid out today? Or is it to be paid in the next check?

How is work life balanace in Honeywell India?

What’s the hardest things you find about being a partner?

👿🎃👻 Halloween started early. I was ghosted, again. 👻🎃👿

How’s everyone holding up? For those of us who do 12 step meetings, I for one miss the hugs! We have to work harder now to stay connected as we are isolators by nature. Find time for you 🙏

Hi
Are there any couple pg/studio aprtment in pune wanna shift with my wife for some 3-4months.
Please help me with some suggestions..

About to buy my first car, am I making a mistake? It's 2019 Corolla for 25K CAD (18K USD) all in. 45K kilometres (28K miles). I have 75K saved and earn 100K a year. It just feels too expensive, but it's hard to find something decent for less. Thoughts appreciated!

Leased a new Mercedes and the dealership filed for new registration two months after the purchase. Now the temporary tags have expired and they won’t send me a new one. What can I do in this situation?

Can anyone share hands on/ownership experience with a CX-30?

What salary would you feel comfortable buying a $100k car? Trying to gauge how bad of a decision that would be…

Due to licensing in Australia, limited to a sub 660cc bike. Considering:
- Ducati Monster 659
- Triumph Street Triple
- Yamaha MT07
Appreciate any feedback from riders. Once probation period is up will be looking at a Harley; Dyna or Night Rod

Who are worse: Altima drivers or Dodge Journey drivers?

Anyone know if non-m cars have launch mode?

Bought my 911 last year for ~$120k. Only put 4,000 miles on it and seeing online values in the ~$130k range. Am I crazy for considering selling it? She's in perfect condition (even though she's my daily)

Will be in the market for a car in a month or so - narrowed down to Mazda CX 50 Turbo but the BMW X3 is only around $5k more compared to the Mazda Turbo trim I liked. Torn between these 2, would really appreciate any advice/insight in making this decision in regards to longterm ownership, rate of depreciation and maintenance.

Any Range Rover Velar owners/leaseholders here?

Would love to hear about the good, bad and ugly. TIA 😊🙏 Also about whether you own or lease it.

Been seeing a lot of gt500 slander in this bowl what’s up with that 🤔

Are dealerships not negotiating car prices right now due to the chip shortage and high demand for cars? Or is it just the used car market?

Other than a Tesla, what make and model has the best acceleration per dollar?

Are luxury brands worth the money or are you paying for a name ?

Please settle this argument between my friend and his brother. If you had to race, which car are you choosing between a 2022 X6M BMW vs 2021 Hellcat Durango.

Porsche Macan S, cayenne coupe, or Audi RS5? 29M and I can easily see myself driving and loving all three options. I know they’re different but at this point I’m prioritizing:
- Looks
- “Sex Appeal”
- Comfortable enough ride

Is buying a used, low mileage Maserati Ghibli really that bad?? Not paying that premium msrp and being able to capitalize on the depreciation seems like a win and they are fun to drive imo
