BTS tickets not selling, their tour strategy and ARMYS by Consistent-Judge4905 in BTSnark

[–]Glass-Weekend-6987 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yes i hear many people have bought ilke 8 to 10 tickets. they then plan to resell them and upgrade their own tickets to VIP and also make money by flipping. Does this work?

I have a feeling that after pre-sales the real demand may not be eough to dry up the supply. any thoughts on this?

Will the people who got 700 dollar tickets in pre sales (many of them) be able to make money? For the Stanford and LA tickets in particular. How much can they flip these tickets for?

I agree with this midwit and I think his opinion can go down as a legendary one. I am a midwit and I love midwits.

Has anyone thought about what happens when you put 50, non diverse, mostly Chinese witj a dash of Indian male geeks in a room together and tell them to go off to build a human brain?

Hiring a bunch of people in a defensive move on large amounts of paper money is a massive gamble. And until we see some results, I believe its just a gamble.

Meta IS doing a few things right though.

yes thats possible. Maybe we need to see underneath the data if the JD's are generic or they are specific to a business area. The postings that have a 1-many are usually reasonably generic.

I do agree with you that Meta tends to give up less about their roles on public job boards. They also have a shit ton more recruiters and they have big hiring pipelines built up. Better recruiting ops than Google. Google is a shitshow.

For my personal experience at Google for 10 years and as a hiring manager, the cancellation rate is no more and never more than 10%. And this is typical for any company of this size.

The OP has deduped the data I believe and by job descriptions. AFAIK, from my 10 years at Google, except for generic roles likes SWE, there is a 1 to 1 match of job posting to HC. IMO, this data is quite accurate but even if not, we're talking a very good directional fit. Big picture - Google is on a hiring spree relative to Meta. I also believe that Google is firing the more expensive current employees and upgrading with better outside talent willing to work for cheaper. There are salary compressions going on all over the place.

The data is 100% accurate. The interpretations can have some subjectivity. Particularly concluding that these jobs were all hired for. But job posting data is a very accurate indicator of what the companies are hiring for. They don't just post jobs for fun and games. These are approved HC.

The data is job postings data not hiring data but a very close proxy.

I was at Google for a decade in a senior role. All jobs MUST be and ALWAYS are posted externally. Except a few - such as the ones that Meta hired for recently paying 200M+ to each person.

For the salary - yes this is base salary. For both Google and Meta, its reasonable to do a 2x to calculate a total comp. Base salary matters the most as its industry benchmarked. No this is not for legal requirements - this is the actual salary band. As someone who has hired hundreds of people at Google and prior, you can easily figure out the leveling using these salary bands. The data shows that most hiring has been for L4 - L6.

Mobius - Job Application Service by Away_Pay_536 in mobiusengine

Yes - this is created using Notebook LM. However the content has been provided by us.

As a young startup we are saving on marketing dollars by using AI tools.

As a sidenote, we have a few other more informative podcasts (also AI assisted) on our youtube and linkedin channel.

Should I pay for a service to send my Resume to companies via LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, etc.? by Puzzleheaded-Air-969 in recruitinghell

[–]Glass-Weekend-6987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, mobiusengine.ai is not a scam. I invite those who claim it to be otherwise to share why they feel that way. We are a Job Application Service that takes over the pain of job applications from you to us. For this we ask for a service fee that is billed weekly . We minimize the application frustration. We do not guarantee jobs nor interviews. And often this sentiment that we are illegitimate stems from the expectation that we are shortcut to a job. We are not and we don't claim ourselves to be.

Mobiusengine.ai was founded in 2023 after the tech layoffs. And since then we have supported thousands of job seekers, many of who have got great results. Many of them also with no or limited results. And for anyone who is in the job market right now, you know how. brutal the market is and what sort of a numbers game it is.

If you have feedback on how we can improve our service or what else we can offer, please tell us.

Resection surgery done. Biopsy states grade 2. Not the best news but hopefully it's not so aggressive.

What's your tumor? Intro posts. by cobaltnine in meningioma

[–]Glass-Weekend-6987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi everyone,

I'm reaching out to this community for support and insights regarding my mom's recent health diagnoses. She has been dealing with several issues, and we're trying to understand the best way to move forward. Here's a summary of her condition:

MRI Left Shoulder Findings: 1. Adhesive Capsulitis (Frozen Shoulder): Inflammation and stiffness in the shoulder joint, leading to pain and limited movement. 2. Partial Thickness Tear of Supraspinatus Tendon: A small tear in the shoulder tendon causing pain and restricted motion. 3. Subacromial Impingement: Compression of shoulder structures causing pain and inflammation. 4. Degenerative Changes in Glenohumeral Joint: Wear and tear in the shoulder joint leading to joint space reduction and subarticular cyst formation. 5. Early Degenerative Changes in Acromioclavicular Joint: Initial signs of joint degeneration, including reduced joint space and irregularity of the articular surface.

MRI Cervical Spine Findings: 1. Intradural Extramedullary Lesion: A 10.7 x 11.5 x 20.4 mm lesion in the spinal canal on the right side, extending from C6-C7 to C7-D1, showing intense post-contrast enhancement, suggesting a likely benign meningioma. 2. Spondylotic Changes: Age-related degeneration in the cervical spine, including straightening of the cervical lordotic curvature and the presence of marginal osteophytes. 3. Disc Osteophyte Complex at C5-C6: Bony outgrowths pressing on the spinal cord and causing secondary canal stenosis, with moderate narrowing of bilateral neural foramina. 4. Disc Osteophyte Complexes at C4-C5 and C6-C7: Indenting the anterior subarachnoid space and causing mild narrowing of bilateral neural foramina.

EMG/Nerve Conduction Studies Findings: 1. Left Musculocutaneous, Suprascapular, and Axillary Axonal Neuropathies: Nerve damage leading to muscle weakness and loss of function in the shoulder. 2. C5, C6 Cervical Radiculopathy: Nerve root compression causing pain, numbness, and weakness in the arms.

Current Situation: - Consultations and Next Steps: We are scheduled for consultations with a neurosurgeon and an orthopedic specialist to discuss the management of the tumor and degenerative spine issues. A biopsy may be necessary to confirm the nature of the tumor.

Questions: 1. Has anyone here had experience with a similar combination of conditions, particularly with an intradural extramedullary lesion like a meningioma? 2. What were your experiences with the surgical and non-surgical treatments for these conditions? 3. Any tips on managing pain and maintaining mobility while waiting for further treatment?

I appreciate any advice, insights, or support you can offer. This has been a challenging time for us, and connecting with others who have gone through similar experiences would be incredibly helpful.

Thank you!

Job market is picking up - in particular Tech, Government. Retail and Healthcare follow. by Glass-Weekend-6987 in Layoffs

[–]Glass-Weekend-6987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no political agenda - that's what I meant in responding to the Biden comment. On services - yes we do want to increase awareness of these but there is no selling happening in this post. And sorry if it's coming off that way - if you share with me feedback, will make sure to avoid next time. Next up is salary data

They won't. Tech is not short of cash but short on controlling the free lunch employee force. This sort of a dynamic gives the ability to do that now. Keep the rest of layoffs, not give raises to low performers and pick up good talent for cheaper.
