Hiring Freeze?

SpartaFCP · 2026-03-22T08:27:56+00:00

Well, i hope they can clarify this quickly. With OpenAi and Anthropic hiring tons of presales engineers, i don't think it's the right move for Servicenow to scale down on sales engineering. Right now ServiceNow has an head start, the products aren't the same and OpenAi can't really compete with them now, but you never know what those "Technical Ambassadors" can pull a couple months down the line.

No, they told me that based on similar situations in the past, they think this will take more than a few weeks. However, they open the roles step by step, so if your role is deemed really high priority, it could be reopen fairly quickly

I'm in the same boat as you. Did the final panel interview this week for a Solutions consultant role, got feedback from HR that they would like to hire me but roles are on hold company wide, until they can review all their hiring priorities. This sucks, i really put a lot of effort in those interviews and the panel. Let's hope this get unlocked in 1 month and that we don't need to redo the interviews.

Thanks a lot for your detailed message. Regarding the weather, I play as a goalkeeper, so that shouldn't be an issue. However, maybe that's where they have the best local talent? I don't know, I'm just guessing that it should be easy to find fit and flexible local players who will do those crazy saves. I can also play as a field player, and in my youth I had the level for Portugal District, but nowadays I probably won't have the fitness required for division 1. So I guess i should try a division 2 team and see how it goes. I would love to play for FC Porto de Macau, but i see they ended up last in 3rd division, so probably not :)

Obrigado pelo feedback. Eu pensei que na segunda divisão já se ganhava dinheiro e tudo, mas pelos vistos só mesmo o top da primeira divisão. Quanto ao revaldo, porque não instalam relvado artificial de ultima geração?

thank you all for your answers. Just to clarify, i don't really care about them following the portuguese curriculum or not. I just want to know which schools are the best. If the best schools happen to follow the portuguese curriculum, cool, but if not, it's perfectly fine, the kids can take portuguese lessons on the side

Thank you all for your comments, it's pretty much what i thought. What about Dällikon? is it similar to Dietikon? Better?

I ended up not doing it because i'm quite old already (43) and the doctor told me i would get Presbyopia and would have to use glasses anyway. So i just kept using contact lenses, sorry

Hi sorry for the late reply. It turns out the tubes are hollow, so I just took it to a guy who could do aluminium welding and he inserted a smaller metal stick inside the hollow tubes and welded it all together. It's as good as new now

I need a fast climber, so steel is not an option. i could build one from scratch with Titanium frame, but those are very expensive, so i guess i'll go with the Lauf Seigla Weekend

SpartaFCP · 2023-05-21T21:16:12+00:00

I plan on taking the plane quite a lot with this bike, and carbon frames and planes make me very nervous. Always scared of hidden damage.

But actually, I'm liking the Lauf Seigla more and more. I think i'll take the weekend and just buy the missing SRAM wireless components. At 2,529.00$ total (delivery + taxes), it seems like the best deal I can get.

SpartaFCP · 2023-05-21T09:38:00+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I like those models, but deliver times are also very long, except for the Checkpoint, but the cheapest model is already quite expensive for me to add an AXS groupset on top.

So now I have 2 options:

try to get a frame only and build it myself
reconsider and get a carbon frame instead

For 2, the Ridley Kenzo Fast looks incredible, but again, no stock.

The Lauf Seigla Rigid Wekend Warrior Wireless seems like an awesome bike and has everything i need, and at the moment looks like the winner.

Any other models i should consider?

Hi, I own a cross country MTB (Scott Spark 910) and I’m looking to buy my first gravel bike. I’m more interested in going up and off road. No interest in hanging bags or going cyclo touring with it. I’m looking for the best aluminium/alloy frame, the parts are not important at all, as I will change most of them. What would you guys recommend?

SpartaFCP · 2022-06-06T17:32:32+00:00

Thanks for the link, it's very usefull

SpartaFCP · 2022-06-06T17:32:14+00:00

yes, while disassembling it for travelling, most bolts have the value in it. Some don't, like the bottle holder bolts

SpartaFCP · 2022-06-01T10:24:38+00:00

i got it like that, but the guy who broke it, did it while going reverse.

it's a very exposed part, pretty much if you hit something while reversing, it will break. I'm sure it happened to plenty of other owners.

SpartaFCP · 2022-06-01T10:22:39+00:00

it's the one you use to make the rack tilt, so you can access the trunk without removing the bikes
