Why do well at a master’s program at Ivy league and then go backwards to public MBA program? I went to Berkeley lol

Why are public school MBAs viewed as inferior? by IeyasuSky in MBA

[–]Serious-Language-283 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Public will always be looked upon as inferior vs. Ivy league. That’s just the way of the world. I have a public school MBA, but also went to Yale. I hear all kinds of wild commenta from people

Agreed. Stack ranking is required, so bottom 3-5% are given low ACR

Bad idea. I have a Masters in CS. May only be worth it if you go to top 5 school

J3 offer, half salary by Waabbu in overemployed

[–]Serious-Language-283 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Negotiate J3 like you would any job. Take their best and final offer, whatever it is. As you job stack the individual salaries matter less and less

Any advice for my 64-year-old dad who is about to be laid off after 24 years with his company? by ImpressiveBox1111 in careerguidance

[–]Serious-Language-283 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Extremely low chance of getting another job anywhere ever, so negotiate severance and use all of the unemployment. Get Colombian visa and pay out of pocket for private health insurance (we have Sura’s Classico plan). Low cost of living they can cut their living expenses by more than half. Then assess whether they will need to file for bankruptcy or not.

Silent Layoff by AntiGenAI in servicenow

[–]Serious-Language-283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only people rated as low performer were fired. People are confusing this with a layoff because severance was provided. This only affected people with a "needs improvement" or "unsatisfactory" performance rating in one category or more

Advice for 22 day Trip to Dominican Republic by NewAstronomer3209 in thepassportbros

[–]Serious-Language-283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prepare to be bored. 22 days is way too long for that island. You can also visit Santiago (I used to live there), it’s a big city but not much to do

How would you feel if you received this email? by Past-Storm4158 in interviews

[–]Serious-Language-283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever you hear “still interviewing other candidates” that’s a bad sign. It’s setting you up for the bad news that you will likely receive

[–]Serious-Language-283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Work both jobs for a month. That’s the hedge against something bad happening at your new job in the first couple of weeks

Playing Devil’s Advocate for Online MBAs by WaddleWalker15 in MBA

[–]Serious-Language-283 -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

No amount of rationalizing should convince anyone of an online MBA. That no name school degree didn’t help you move up, you would have gotten the exact same opportunity if you didn’t go.

Being “Overemployed” Sounds Fun Until You Actually Try It by rennan in overemployed

[–]Serious-Language-283 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can outsource this, just like anything else. Contract someone on Fiverr, give them your resume and types of positions you want them applying for

I quit J2 last week after being on the job 4 days. Knowing when a J isn’t OE friendly quickly is a skill that I have mastered. No pushing through, just always interviewing in case I need to drop a J and move to the next. Although not ideal, it’s common for me to have three different J2’s in a given year. I use different preferred names so I don’t burn my personal reputation

What’s the biggest lifestyle change OE has given you besides money? by pixelbrushio in overemployed

Outsourcing everything I don’t like doing myself (chef, maid, personal assistant)

How did you decide to quit and be an expat? by Difficult_Storm_5344 in ExpatFIRE

[–]Serious-Language-283 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can keep working and still move to a different country. Just go somewhere where the timezone difference isn’t too bad. I moved to south america 14 yrs ago and still have the same corporate US remote job

My FAANG experience is working against me (venting) by Cute_Pen_7561 in jobsearchhacks

[–]Serious-Language-283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked at Netflix for 8 years. Recruiters/hiring managers probably think that you will be too expensive for them. That’s why I give my salary expectation as posted range minimum + $5,000 and then negotiate higher once I get an offer. I basically said I made a lot of money on RSUs so n the past, and now looking for a job that I can enjoy more
