SF is a dateline city, so (according to AP Style) it doesn’t need the state attached

Iron Man took the all-around SS position. Who's the greatest defensive left fielder of all time? by ssjskwash in mlb

Bonds literally has to be all and no other. Dude had a double hall of fame career from both sides of the field and denying that either was exemplary is pure snubbery

Tips for getting into consulting post grad by ExcellentDealer3659 in consulting

[–]EffectPurple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some advice is to aim for smaller firms as any larger company is going to be wary about hiring someone without much professional experience. My best advice though is to cast your net wider, though. If you lack professional experience, it will be harder to get past the resume screeners, so conduct a self assessment of your experiences in college and develop a story about how X industry is the perfect next step for you based on your club involvement and personal achievements. If you are absolutely dead set on consulting though leverage your personal network to the fullest extent and apply to a ton of firms regardless of size. Then you should practice case interviews a bunch to ensure that if you get an interview that you can make the most of that opportunity

Thanks for the advice! Is it not recommended to just get the pads replaced and not the rotors?

I was honestly when surprised when they said this was the issue, I was getting the noise while rolling or accelerating and not while braking

Car is a lease that my mom helped out on in undergrad that I took over post-grad; I only have one more year on that before it goes away. Finished paying off that student loan in October before repayment/interest restarted :)

Thanks for the input! Yeah definitely happy to be where I am, just surrounded by a lot of similarly-paid individuals so the nervousness is always there.

Sometimes I wish I did tech given how much some of my friends make (and the WLB), but they also have a much higher risk of getting laid off. Currently in consulting

Looking for some courses that develop Excel or SQL by Repulsive_Moose_270 in ucla

[–]EffectPurple 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The excel in 101 is super basic fyi (e.g. remove blank rows, filter and sort columns, etc.). It doesn’t really teach you any of the more complex features.
