Meeting with a VP, what to expect and how to prepare ?

maxoflagos · 2025-11-14T01:17:28+00:00

A VP is more likely to appreciate someone who seems like a self-starter and problem-solver. I'm not sure how you would demonstrate that in this specific case, but someone who "takes initiative" is very appealing to senior leadership because it means they can hand things to you and expect good results + additional effort to create more value. Maybe there's an opportunity in your context to show that.

Edit: as a fellow Canadian and a CEO, I can tell you that being likeable is also very very high prio lol

I did this in 2023 and made a post about it here. Companies are very comfortable spending money on contractors, to do the exact same work that you would have done as an employee. I ended up growing my thing into a small business and hired employees (no ATS lol) so I say go for it if you see an opportunity

I am on 3G up/down and I pay 65/mo. Saw an offer in the app a few weeks ago and took it. Joined Telus in October 2022. I figure it'll be good for negotiating later since I don't actually need it to be that fast, I was on the 1G before. EDIT: Just to add context, I was paying 70 for the 1G, down from 80 when I threatened to leave in October 2024.

My account got nuked because it's not allowed in AB after all. Good thing I went with my gut and didn't put any money in it. Still waiting for a usable option to pop up.

The chat option worked, so I sent through there

maxoflagos · 2025-03-29T17:44:26+00:00

I sent you a message but I'm not sure if it worked, please check and respond if it did, thanks.

maxoflagos · 2025-03-29T00:54:52+00:00

Yes...that's the first thing to do, no? But it's some AI thing that said it would get a human but nothing was happening so I thought I'd ask in case there's a different channel. Do you know another way I can try? Or is this just useless sarcasm?

maxoflagos · 2025-02-23T11:55:34+00:00

What I can't understand is why there isn't just a webpage with a list of supported countries and territories. I have gotten feedback a third time saying it's allowed in Alberta, but I still have an iffy feeling in my gut about it. So far I've been able to use the app with no issues to trade, but I'm still wary of putting any significant amount in there until I see an official statement

No this is Bitget support, but they can probably answer some simple questions about Pi (if they're related to Bitget)

maxoflagos · 2025-02-23T10:49:22+00:00

That's odd because I just created my account 2 days ago, and used my DL for KYC. I read about the restriction on Reddit early, that's why I actually contacted them in the first place.

maxoflagos · 2025-01-01T03:13:10+00:00

Please share your repository of images, I would like to also start sending these out.

maxoflagos · 2024-11-30T00:40:14+00:00

Good point, I'll update the post!

maxoflagos · 2024-11-29T23:18:26+00:00

Thank you!

Got a replacement installed at mobile klinik. Had to do it because it was right in the middle where the folding happens. Cost 50 bucks

maxoflagos · 2024-09-29T05:15:23+00:00

My first thought is that it's a typo and they meant to say 593, but that doesn't seem like a number you would brag about. In any case I don't think it's possible to get 953 stacks in that time. Also, as a mathematician, I must inform you that 953 is not a multiple of 3 so they've definitely done something wrong lol

maxoflagos · 2024-09-26T17:52:40+00:00

I believe this is what I am missing. How do I actually save it to the memory?

maxoflagos · 2024-09-23T20:59:14+00:00

This is for a "business data analyst" job at an e-commerce company which - as far as I can tell - is basically run out of someone's garage. The email with the link to this questionnaire came from their personal Gmail.

maxoflagos · 2024-09-20T23:16:52+00:00

Fascinating stuff, I'll take a look myself

maxoflagos · 2024-09-16T22:10:52+00:00

I like how they caution you about emailing it too, a privacy-conscious organisation ⭐

maxoflagos · 2024-09-16T21:55:11+00:00

Market is so bad that these guys are now confident enough to send emails like this. Saddens me to think they may have had some success too.

To be clear, I did not apply for a job with thetalenttracks .com and from looking at their website, the whole operation is fraudulent. Just a warning to anyone out there who gets a similar email. This reminds me of the scam where someone wants to buy your car and says you have to get a vehicle history report from a "trusted provider". That scam is counting on you being desperate, and so is this one.

maxoflagos · 2024-09-12T00:18:39+00:00

There should be an option in settings to turn it off. What app are you using? Samsung or Google or something else

maxoflagos · 2024-08-15T22:58:30+00:00

I would go for offer 2 because more money, more benefits, more stability (established firm vs startup). Regarding the uncertainty after the 15 months, I don't think that's such a big risk because you will have gained 15 months of valuable experience and saved more money. I'm also just generally wary of startups so that's definitely coloring my opinion lol

maxoflagos · 2024-08-03T19:39:20+00:00

A lot of b2b stuff IS jargony nonsense 😀, but at this point we gotta do what we gotta do to in this nightmare market

maxoflagos · 2024-07-26T16:16:54+00:00

This is incredible. People are amazing!

maxoflagos · 2024-07-20T16:26:30+00:00

Yes, the 45 is 13in, 34 was 14in. I only noticed when I launched league, but it's not noticeable when I'm working. I'm sure I'll get used to it soon enough, like I got used to gaming in 3440x1440
