Pros
I've been working at VIPKID for just over four months. VIPKID offers flexible hours and after a few weeks it's possible to have a consistent schedule. The children are adorable, there is a very well designed curriculum, and the pay is double that of other online jobs. I have a set of 'regular' students I see every week and have really enjoyed seeing their progress.
Cons
There is a very strict cancellation policy and few exceptions for things like IT problems or sick days.

Pros
This company has a huge support network. They provide amazing curriculum that is taught on a platform that is fun and engaging for the kids. Teachers are responsible for their own schedule and can work as much or as little as you want!
Cons
The only con I can think of are sore cheeks for genuinely smiling for several hours a day!!!

I finished third round of interviews but realized there’s an experience that isn’t on my resume (since it’s not directly related to the jobs I’m applying for) nor did I mention it in the interview process, but it would actually be great for me to leverage and demonstrates a relevant skill for the role. Is it worth emailing and dropping a quick note about it, or should I leave it?

I have a supply chain & inventory manager interview coming up for a museum. Can anyone provide me some insight on what questions I should be prepared for? What key points to highlight during my interview? Any tips and advice is appreciated!

I finished final round interview. Should I send a thank you letter to everyone or only to people where I have something interesting to add on. I interviewed with the hiring manager twice already and sent thank you emails. He never responds, should I even bother to send him one more since we talked again in the final round? HR said I wouldn’t hear back until late next week earliest. It sounds like they still have to wrap up final rounds with other people. I don’t want them to forget me.
