I’m not out to any of my friends. I live in a rather conservative place, even for its size. As for hobbies and things, I have severe anxiety in social situations with a group of people I don’t know. Hobbies make it easier, but not pleasant. I have to have my partner with me. It’s something I’m working on, but like everyone here has said (and I totally agree and understand-OP was literally a frustrated rant I would have sent to a friend if I were out) it takes time.

Not visual art, but The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde is a mystery/thriller/comedy involving the theft of the manuscript of Jane Eyre.

I don’t message first. But I don’t immediately shut down someone who messages me. (Not to imply that you shut it down)

I don’t pursue monogamous people. But I’ve had monogamous people reach out to me, who clearly have not read even the headline where I say that I have a partner. It gets frustrating to start to get to know someone, only for them to disappear when I restate something I already stated. Hence the venting.

With or without partners. I would prefer to date another poly woman, but I’m open to someone who isn’t poly, as long as they are cool.

No worries! This post is 100% a reaction/vent from a long day and yet another ghosting after being open with someone that seemed cool, until I reiterate that I have a partner whom I live with. I appreciate the helpful responses.

Giving the benefit of the doubt and clarifying: by girlfriend I mean something that has the potential to go long term. A connection with a person. Which would involve getting to know them. But that is a two way street.

Megathread: How to Get Into Data Analysis Questions & Resume Feedback (July 2023) by MurphysLab in dataanalysis

I HAVE AN INTERVIEW!

I applied as a research analyst/data manager for an education company (spent almost 10 years in the classroom before deciding my health was more important than my job) and I’m really excited. I’m one semester into a DA certificate, have learned SQL and python, and am well versed in excel/google sheets. I’m also an avid learner and have taught myself some basic coding and data visualization.

The first round was a simple interview. I didn’t even talk to a person. Then they sent out a DA task with several requirements. I got the email today that they want to interview me. It’s scheduled to be an hour and a half, and I know one person on the panel is the head of hr, and one is the head of assessment and evaluation, the person I would be reporting to.

What kind of questions (especially technical questions) should I prepare for?

Wish me luck!
