Depends on current situation

I don’t feel challenged on my current project. I’m definitely not growing. Single but I have a mortgage and 6 months emergency fund. I’m a Project Mgr + Solution Architect.

Ohh. Why don’t you apply directly for Amazon TPM role?

Ohh!! Usually Amazon folks say to keep on trying. They themselves will suggest if there’s any other role you want to apply.
There’s a chance this role will get converted to permanent? Its very difficult to explain later than you left booz allen to be contractor TPM unless the work is something very very close to your heart like saving the world, reducing temperature to fight climate change.

Hey Googlers, I’m going in for my GCP TAM second round on Monday and had a few QQs for you all:
1. For the RRK2 case study if there is a scenario for handling peak time workloads where the client did a lift & shift of a monolithic architecture, is the best suggestion to move them to micro services to enable serverless and auto scaling features?
2. I was told that they’ll give me 15 mins to prep after the case study is shared live, would you suggest I build a 1 pager or is that not required?Google

I recently left a company because I didn’t see eye to eye with management about recruitment. The company I worked for regularly touts its commitment to D&I but in the recruitment process my candidates were routinely exited for having natural hair, being too old, too “urban”, etc. I’m not looking to bitterly blow up their spot but I feel like someone needs to be aware of this. This was done at the higher levels of local leadership and I have no connection with anyone in corporate. What to do?
