If you've just joined a new company for about a month and a highly popular, high growth company sends you an InMail on LinkedIn to say "hey we we have this position open and we think you're cool"...?

How would you respond? Noting that it's just an InMail that seems rather generic and automated. Probably just them casting the net wide and trying to attract more applicants. So, chances are you likely don't actually have an edge.

Hi there, first and foremost, congratulations on joining a new company! Receiving an InMail on LinkedIn for a position in a highly popular company could mean that your profile/resume did indeed caught the attention of the recruiter/hiring manager.

In my opinion, if you’re really interested in the opportunity, do highlight your interest in the company and the role and show that you’re proactive about suggesting next steps. Definitely do not hesitate to share your interest with the recruiter.

Having said that, please do take the opportunity to review your notice period/contract and take that into account.

All the best!

I don't understand this. I've been investing for 5 years and i've not been getting positive returns. I'm just thinking about those FA saying "invest in the long term and compounding etc".

Has anyone used OCBC Roboinvest? I’ve been using it and getting about 6% returns in 2 months. I took up mostly high risks portfolios which I realise are individual companies’ stocks and not ETFs. ?

What do you think about climbing the corporate ladder? Is it a zero-sum game? I.e. No room for progression unless your immediate superior resigns or gets posted somewhere else. Or is joining a new company the only way out?

Not a question but just wanted to say congratulations to Seedly for the new acquisition. Looking forward to the company's growth!?

My employment contract is ending in 4 months, and I'm unsure if the company will offer a new contract thereafter. Should I start looking out, and be open to my boss about my job search?
