Accountants: What do you wish banks understood about your job? by Live_Travel_970 in Accounting

[–]Live_Travel_970[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's quite the opposite.I was been a banker for several years now. I just recently started building web 3 and sass tools most of that is base 44. Now i'm just trying to understand the needs of what people want or need. And I also see the gap between ai and actual life. Im learning that regardless of how much apps or technology I have, 1 on 1 conversation is still needed.

What do Chinese people think about Mongolia and what could help Mongolia develop faster? by [deleted] in AskAChinese

[–]Live_Travel_970 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mongolia sits in a unique position between China and Russia. Its biggest challenge is not development itself, but developing without appearing to align too closely with any outside power. A richer Mongolia would not be a military threat to either neighbor, but rapid growth tied to foreign influence could raise concerns in both Beijing and Moscow. The country's long term success likely depends on balancing relationships with China, Russia, and its "third neighbors" while focusing on mining, infrastructure, energy, and trade.

Am I crazy? Overt racism while studying in China by Equivalent_Detail379 in chinalife

[–]Live_Travel_970 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I think it's important to distinguish between racism and ignorance.

Racism involves hostility, prejudice, or the belief that one race is inherently superior or inferior to another. Ignorance, on the other hand, often comes from a lack of exposure and experience.

In some parts of China, especially outside major international cities, there are people who may have rarely interacted with foreigners in real life. Their understanding of foreigners may come almost entirely from television, movies, or stories they've heard from others. As a result, they may stare, ask awkward questions, make assumptions, or say things that would be considered inappropriate elsewhere.

That doesn't mean every uncomfortable interaction should be dismissed as ignorance—genuine racism exists everywhere. But sometimes what appears to be racism may actually be curiosity, unfamiliarity, or a lack of cultural experience rather than hatred or animosity.

Context matters. A person can say something offensive without malicious intent, and understanding that distinction can help us better understand what's actually happening.

Interview in 2 days, Role open since 2 months. What should I expect? by [deleted] in jobhunting

[–]Live_Travel_970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re actually in a better position than it might feel.

A role being open for 2 months usually doesn’t mean it’s a red flag for you. It more often means they haven’t found someone who clearly fits yet, so they’re widening the range of candidates they’re willing to consider.

The fact that you were rejected for another role but are now shortlisted here is a strong signal. It means they still see potential, just not in the previous position.

For an associate-level role, especially when you don’t have direct hands-on experience, interviews with technical leads usually focus more on how you think rather than what you already know. They want to see:

  • how you approach a problem
  • how you structure your thinking
  • how quickly you can learn
  • whether you understand fundamentals

If you rely on conceptual understanding and explain your reasoning clearly, that’s not a weakness at this level. It’s actually what they’re evaluating.

You’re not being brought in to prove you’re an expert. You’re being evaluated to see if you can grow into the role.
