When a job posting on LinkedIn includes hashtag MAIP, does that mean do not apply if you are white? I don’t mean to be insensitive about this. Trying to find work and I want to understand if these roles are being flagged for diverse candidates and I’d be wasting my time applying. I know when a company says recent grads that I shouldn’t bother as an older candidate.

I’m a former MAIPer and I’ve never seen that on any position above an intern. Typically there’s a different owned hashtag used for MAIP posts. I’d assume the posters are more so targeting the MAIP alumni pool. It’s a pretty big, and socially-engaged network.

That makes sense that they want their alumni seeing the posts!

I would imagine, if they are putting that hashtag on a post, they will be prioritizing non-white candidates. They might not dismiss your application, but I would assume they have a profile in mind for who they are looking to hire. That demo they highlight is probably not reflected in their team currently and they are trying to adjust. I would focus your energy elsewhere, personally. Good luck!

If they include it on every job post for the company, are they just signaling an overall message of diversity? Or should I not bother applying at that company right now until they fix whatever issues they are having?

I’m an MAIP alumni, to me it means they want a diverse selection of candidates. You can and should apply.

If you’re an older candidate, are you actually considering internships?

“First off, I want to thank you for your patience and enthusiasm throughout this entire process. Everyone that you met with, from HM on down, really enjoyed the conversations. Which makes this all the more difficult. Unfortunately, the team is moving forward with another candidate that they felt was a little better match for what the team needs.
Again, I want to thank you for being great through this process, and welcome you to apply for any other role”

Recently attended an interview from one of the top IT firms . I'd never seen any such worst process in any of my life .
Since I'd attended an interview long back i was surprised to receive this call and HR informed me that I'll be having a HR round and the day comes i joined the call ( literally they didn't even ask a single HR question and it was completely about TR) when I reached out to HR . I was told this was a TR + MR

Hi all,

Two weeks back I was asked to share my documents for an entry level role in PwC AC. However, post document submission I have not received any further communication from anyone in the company. I am really confused and don't know who to contact. Can anyone suggest a solution.

I recently interviewed for a great company and they are offer me a base + commission salary of which the base salary is much lower (15k less) than what I was making in previous role and is also below the industry rate. They say the commission will make up for my expectations. Now I am in a bit in bind because this is great company and will give me good exposure for future opportunities but I also want to negotiate the salary. How can I approach this?

I am not enjoying my work here, no motivation at all. Dreaded to report to work and having stress and anxiety. My manager is trying to micromanage me as productivity is on the lower side.

Another thing is, I have started to dislike my current tech and no more interested in it.
What are my options here ?
Is project release possible ?
