              Nothing is good over here.

              Cons

              No recognition for admin staff, salary increment/Perf bonus payout sucks. No career progression for a clinical coordinator. Rigid system. Not much comms btw departments. Mgt expects you to find out info by yrself without giving you any guidance or advice wasted alot of time on it.

                    Exposure to the medical industry. Colleagues are somewhat nice.

                    Cons

                    Despite friendly colleagues, you don't really feel like part of the team as you're just an intern. Sometimes being tasked to do mundane things just for the sake of making good use of the time e.g. cleaning the department's cupboard etc. Not much room for career progression to a full-time employee, and you do not get a proper cubicle. Overall, not really a very good learning experience as the tasks I did was mostly mailing out things to donors.

                      Case Manager

                      I applied to 4 jobs last week. Two companies replied that thy are reviewing my application and I have an interview tomorrow with a third. The company I'm interviewing with is the one I'm least interested in of the four, though it is better than my current job. What is the etiquette if I'm offered a job with this company but I want to wait and see what response I get from the other 3? Should I tell the company I need a couple weeks to decide, or be up front that I'm waiting for other offers? Or?

                      Underwriter

                      During my interview with a Vice President, he mentioned that the "background check" had been reviewed. He brought up cities I had lived in at one point, even though I hadn't included that information on my resume or LinkedIn profile, though it is accurate. Additionally, he was aware of my entrepreneurship experience, which I had not disclosed anywhere. I'm curious about the source of this information. I'm currently progressing through the interview rounds without any offer or signed documents.

                      Underwriter

                      I’m moving on to round 3 of the interview process after speaking with the VP and it’ll be with peers. My position would be Insurance Product Manager so the peers would be internal stakeholders (Sales, Engineering, Underwriting, Actuary, etc.) What kind of questions typically do peer interviews ask?
