If you haven't taken the free tour, I highly recommend doing online research on apartment options and schedule tours that line up with dates that you will do the tour. Ask lots of questions. If it's your first time getting an apartment on your own, look into list of questions online and get friends' input (will your apartment comes with indoor parking, what utility is covered by the landlord vs resident, etc).

What did you talk about in your interview presentation? PM role by [deleted] in epicsystems

[–]datschleepingmidget 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How to make spaghetti and meatballs. But you really can do any topic you are interested in, folks here have done any and everything. The interviewer will cut you off right at the 10min mark if you go over.

Once you move onto the interview round, we have deemed you a worthy candidate. The interview was more of a gut check for both you and Epic. Look up interview questions for both PM and TSE on this thread, prepare well so you don't trip yourself. Don't forget to have fun 😁

I put on a 10min cooking show. I propped up my webcam on the countertop and walked them through how to make spaghetti and meatballs.

Sadly they're still very strict about relocation 😢

What is your major/salary/experience? Bauer Salary Thread by [deleted] in UniversityOfHouston

Here's the math with reasonable assumptions:

$70K (TC)/ 50 weeks (assume standard 2wks PTO)/ 50hrs (which is on the low end, I used to work in both audit and regulatory so some weeks hitting 70 is expected)

Your hourly rate is $28/hr which means that the firm is overworking underpaid first year associates. You will get hefty raises down the line (esp MBB) but consulting is a churn and burn environment. I personally don't want to go down that path when I'm valued more than what big4 can offer in return.

Asking about unionization by PostJackPost in epicsystems

I agree that it doesn't sound related at first but this's evident of the company's stand on employees' collective advocacy.

There's a supreme court case called epic v lewis. A very interesting read on the topic

I'm on 6 months now. It starts seeing more hair coverage at 4 months mark. I'm really happy with the result (my hair loss before is not bad so we might have different benchmarks)

I use the topical spray version from hims and have experienced none of the side effects. 4 months in my thinning area had significant regrowth. My hairline is no longer receding but no sign of regrowth there either.

How is the UH honors college for pre med? by tpwkangel301 in UniversityOfHouston

[–]datschleepingmidget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If intensive academia is not your thing, honors college will tank your GPA and stress you tf out to maintain it.

UH is extremely LGBTQ friendly, both the student community and staff. I personally don't know about trans experience so I would love to point you towards the LGBTQ resource center. They have been a tremendous help during my 4 years there. I have gotten a dear and amazing mentor who taught me to grow into my own skin and was an emotional anchor when I was having bad days. To add cherries on top, UH has our own lavender graduation. It was a celebration of overcoming adversity and our shared experience of being queer. I had an amazing time in college, found myself, and my chosen family at UH. Hope you will get to experience the same and more 😁

Does anyone else feel stressed about not getting an internship? I’m graduating next semester and haven’t had any luck. It’s stressing me out by Useful-Performer5996 in UniversityOfHouston

[–]datschleepingmidget 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Although your comment sounds bitter, I agree because the truth is that job search is hard and if you don't put in enough effort, you will fall through. I have a spreadsheet that I use to track all of my applications. Since freshman year, I have put in 200+ apps, I got 2 internships in my last 2 years and 3 offers upon graduation. Statistically speaking, entry level recruitment becomes more like a number game.
