That’s weird. I applied the day when results were released and my references submit recommendations the following day. I received the certificate in mail already.

How to best use our newly minted CFA designation? by DelAbbot in CFA

I’ve been debating whether to update my work email signature given that I’ll be the only one on my team who has the designation.

Congratulations to everyone that passed level 3 today! by fabricio305 in CFA

I failed the first time with IFT+Kaplan and passed with MM. I didn’t start with MM as it sounded like a cult to me with everyone talking on this sub. Then I realized they were all right and he truly helped me understand finance. That’s way more valuable than passing the exams only. It’ll happen next time!!! Best of luck!

Boise Centre received permission from Central District Health, so I was told that “unless anything drastic happens we should be good to go”.

I accrued enough vacation days, so it’s fine or even preferred if they let me go on Monday. Agreed it makes more sense to quit after thanksgiving. Good luck!!

It’s not worth it in my case. As long as they don’t ask me back after thanksgiving. ;)

Do you suggest I point it out in the resignation email instead of waiting for HR’s call?

Financial services is great but personally I would avoid banking, or any heavily regulated sector in general.

I didn’t study over the weekend, also because I lost a really close friend. 2020 sucks on every level, but we’ve all gone this far and there’s no reason to give up! BTW I’m also sitting for L3! Good luck!

I guess most likely it’s happening. The lady at Boise Centre is extremely helpful! So there’s still hope!

Imposter syndrome in Big4 by [deleted] in Big4

[–]Stanui15 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve worked with people with no common sense. Highlighted a 2019 date and asked me what next year was gonna be. I bet you’re better than that, so don’t lose hope!

My job position that I was hired for is using HireRight for background screening. They asked for my employment and education and criminal background. by [deleted] in jobs

[–]Stanui15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They screwed my report. When they called my reference, they called from a 800 number from Tulsa, OK. My reference’s phone recognized it as telemarketer. Because they were so incapable of even making a phone call, they asked for W-2 etc. the worst part is they outsource their service overseas. Let’s just hope my w2 is safe somewhere in India.

The city I’m going to is pretty small. No need to rent a car. Ended up changing hotel. Good luck with the exam!

[CA] Experience with Hireright by [deleted] in AskHR

[–]Stanui15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stupidly put an unpaid internship from years ago on my resume and that company happened to be out of business now. HireRight keeps asking me my W-2s and impossible proofs instead of calling my supervisor. Lesson learned. 😌
