When job postings say 1 year experience required, do they mean at time of application being sent or actual start date (since often it takes months to actually start)?

1 year experience translate to familiarity with subject nothing else

I would assume time of application sending but it’s generally subjective. Go for it!

Shoot your shot!!!! I apply and interview for jobs that want like 10 years experience all the time and I have 4 1/2 years experience.

Out of the 4 that I’ve interviewed for, I’ve gotten three offers.

Unless it’s some type of license or cert (and honestly even then sometimes) anything listed on a job posting is a guideline. Just send in your app

Should I renege offer from MBB?

An MBA recent grad. I signed with MBB last year. However, I have always wanted to do tech PM. I couldn’t find PM job in Fall and just signed MBB offer I have. I recently got an FAANG offer. It’s PM function, hard to break in with consulting experience. I declined the new offer during interview stage and again after they gave me initial offer, but it is coming back with 80k more in annual compensation. It made me so torn!! Should I renege MBB offer?

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
