Looking for advice.. I’ve been on a management training programme on the lowest salary possible for just over a year and will soon be finishing the programme for a promotion. I know the average salary of my coworkers in the same role I’ll be going into and was wondering if anyone had advice for negotiating higher? We live in central London for context and due to the inflation are all struggling to manage our finances!

Looking for recommendations on financial modeling courses (paid) that I can take for 3 statements/operating model, valuations, M&A, & LBO. Have been getting interviews with banks (3 in 2 months) but I come up short with the modeling experience (and weak on the technicals too). I’m thinking doing a modeling course will help with the no modeling experience + update my technicals? Thanks.

Hello fishes.
I'm a fresher and I recently joined one of the big4 as a senior analyst.
I am given sap as my competency, but honestly I'm not finding it interesting. I was hoping to shift to data analytics(python, sql, etl, powerbi, advanced excel... Working with these techs).
I have knowledge in python and sql. I also have some development skills, reactjs and stuff(not relevant to data analytics).
Should I increase my skill set before starting to apply to other firms?

Anyone here waiting for a Family Based Green Card, my lawyer filed it last September 2021. It’s 14 months now… still waiting.

Just wanted to know if anyone of you got it earlier than 2 years?

Saw this while searching —
“In most cases, it takes about two years for a green card to become available, and the entire process takes around three years. It can take slightly longer for citizens of Mexico, China, India, and the Philippines.”

On a brighter note — Got my EAD March 2022.
