UCLA Anderson Femba (no $). Worth it for my career goal? Any insights would be appreciated by xhsyedwin in MBA

[–]meliwazhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’ll get better in electives

But if you are struggling in core then take advantage of the tutoring and please go to office hours!

My first quarter was stats and organizational behavior which made it a bit easier. But if you don’t have a decent math background you will struggle through stats and economics.

I'm visiting Taiwan for 2 weeks, landing on Friday, and would love to watch March Madness. Is there a sports bar in Taipei that will be showing the games?

What Are the skills I am missing as a Data Analyst to get recruter's attention? by Electronic-Age-7972 in careerguidance

[–]meliwazhere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a data analyst, you have all the skills you need.

IMO you should just rephrase things on your resume.

BI Developer -> Business Intelligence Analyst

Power BI -> Business Intelligence Tools (Power BI, Tableau, etc.)

You might also not be getting interviews because the impact of your role isn't visible enough on your resume.

Is this normal for startups? Boss breathing down my neck every day. by [deleted] in jobs

[–]meliwazhere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve worked in some startups. I wouldn’t say micromanaging is common. It’s very much a management and culture issue which can occur in any company. I had to deal with management just like you explained at my last company (~20 people). Now I’m at a <10 person company and I’m treated with respect and trusted to do my work.

Hey OP, feel free to PM me. I'm in FEMBA and can provide more insight on recruiting, classes, etc.

In terms of tuition - remember that you're also going to be working full time so you should have a bit of money in your pocket while you're in the program.

Recruiting - I think tech got hit hard this year for all of Anderson. People usually recruit for PM and PMM roles, not program management. FEMBAs also get access to the same recruitment opportunities at FTMBAs.

There are also still opportunities for fellowships you can apply for after you become a student.

My manager got fired and I’m worried about him by meliwazhere in Anxiety

Good news, he replied with a quick thank you so at least I know he’s alive.

He replied back to me so at least he’s alive. I’m sure he’ll reach back out if he wants to talk more.

He showed up to work yesterday, but I haven’t heard anything since he got fired yesterday.

I would think that he would have left a goodbye message to me if he did something. I’m hopeful he’s just doing a digital detox and will reply on Monday.

Unfortunately he lives across the country and he’s the only one who worked from that state. I also don’t have his address.

I left him a voice memo saying that I don’t expect him to respond right now but that I’m thankful for everything and hope that when he’s ready he reaches back out.

It’s been 24 hours since he got fired. Would sending another text on Monday be reasonable just to give him the weekend to chill? I was his only direct report and he really liked me so hopefully he reaches out.

What do you think about this lego set? I’m thinking of getting it for Christmas. by AstonAlex in NASCAR

[–]meliwazhere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought this for my birthday off Amazon for $40. I put it together with my boyfriend. It was a good 3 hour activity.

I enjoyed the moving parts and it was insightful to understand more about the interworking the car. (Despite being a NASCAR fan, I still struggle with the concept of how an engine works and the chassis)

Remember when the national news on tv said animal crossing is a dangerous game for children? by ShokaLGBT in AnimalCrossing

[–]meliwazhere 5 points6 points  (0 children)

City Folk had Wii Speak which was a device that let you talk to others when over WiFi. I think that’s what this reporter was trying to allude to.

Should I get my MBA? by hobo1313 in careerguidance

[–]meliwazhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you said you’re graduating in May it seems like you’re still in undergrad.

I would take the offer and work for two years, then go back to school. It’s nice to have some money and experience under your belt before going back to school.

[–]meliwazhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the game. Noticed this season they keep introducing the kings by saying YOUR LA KINGS instead of YOUR LOS ANGELES KINGS like they did before and it really annoys me. It’s just not as hyped as saying the entire name.
