Radio 59 Albany, New York, WROW, the tri-city's number one station for news. And now, another tale well calculated to keep you in. The story of a prize fighter who turned into an opera singer. Talk about Caruso by Milton Geiger. There we go, I've seen enough. There are two more bouts. I want to talk to Joe Trenton. Francesca, I can't allow you to become infatuated with this third rate prize fighter. Remember who you are. I tell you, he has talent. The man has a voice. A glass jaw does not necessarily imply a crystal voice. Well, I must talk to him. Now, in his dressing room. Even better than a polo-co-goats with a ring on and some lousy garlic music.  And because it's good box office, you notice the women at the ringside? Classy babes, and they're there to see me. Joe Trenton, the singing slugger. And my looks don't hurt either. Maybe that's why you dive so early to save your looks. All right, Caruso, you're finished with me. That's okay with me, Galt. I'll get me another manager. I got a contract with you. Says I own 50% of you. And you don't fight for me, but you don't fight for anybody else, see? Now, wait a minute, Galt. Sing that one to the ringside. Galt, I gotta live. The last thing in the world... May I come in, Mr. Trenton? Sure, come in. Close the door. It's a draft in the dressing room. I'm Francesca Lombard. I'm a singer. Francesca Lombard, the city opera. Sure, sure. I saw the fight, Mr. Trenton. Ah, you saw me on my worst night. I've seen you one other night. Oh? Have you ever considered singing as a career? Well, not seriously. No, you have a pleasant voice. It's untrained, and I don't think it'll ever be really good. Gee, everybody's so nice to me tonight. Oh, you've had some interesting publicity already. I think that with more publicity on a different level, your looks, my influence and connections, I think something interesting could be done. You're kidding. Are you interested? Am I interested? Then I want you to meet a Rigo Carrera, general manager of the opera, and my dear friend. In just a moment, we will return for the second act of... Muncha, muncha, fritos, you smack your lips, but you can't have it with fritos, corn chips, muncha, muncha, muncha, muncha, fritos, corn chips. Fritos are the perfect after-school or between-meal snack. Golden chips of corn just made to munch. A nutritious treat for children and grown-ups alike.  Muncha, muncha, muncha, muncha, fritos, corn chips. Whenever you want good munching, get Fritos' corn chips. Whenever you want to add zip to a lunchbox, to salads, soup or sandwiches, serve Fritos' corn chips. They're America's favorite, Fritos' corn chips. Muncha, muncha, muncha, muncha, fritos, corn chips. Listen to this one in variety, friend. Joe Trenton said to be getting $20,000 for three weeks' toil at Las Vegas, sings in boxes for his supper. Chewie sings like a fighter and fights like a singer, but 20 grand for three weeks of blight calisthenics is not trivial. This is more hay than Joe ever made as a haymaker by far. Cute, eh? Very cute. I like it. You know what I mean? Look, here's one. Joe Trenton billed as the singing slugger sings as he won slugs, passively, and throws a talent there. He does have charm and a nifty physique, and if he sings opera under forced draft, at least it's a dreamboat under forced draft, ask any of the mink and ermine at the ringside table. Great. I think I'm jealous. They still don't get it out of their heads and I used to be a fighter. Well, you still have a way of slipping off a quarter of a note. So a little rosin will fix that. And a lot of practice, Joe. Gonna get me that it's Sullivan shot? You're on three weeks from this Sunday.  Thanks, baby, for arranging with a rego to arrange it with Sullivan. Oh, you're so welcome, Joe. Joe, the phone. Ah, let it ring. Rego, I'm big box office every place else. It's time I was box office at the opera.  Oh, stop, both of you. Look, I can act good enough. I can sing. Just barely. So I'll barely sing. I'll sing, rather me, sing, and I eat a strip to the waist. That'll give the folks a treat. Joe, I'm not one of these blubbery tenors. You know what I mean. Francesca, what do you want me to do? Oh, please, Rego. I'll see what can be done. We'll answer the door for you, Joe. Come, Francesca.  The likable image of a young singer of humble beginnings and all. Good, Joe Trunty. He's here. Good day, sir. Records, ah. Ah, I recommend every peluca should study music. Well, I don't want to keep you from your practice and so forth. So we'll just sit down and settle up our accounts, that, Joe. Accounts? Fifty percent of Joe Trenton. That's what the contract says. Remember? Wait a minute, Galt. I'm not a fighter. Now I'm a singer. Yeah. Look at your contract, singer. It says the syndicate, meaning me, Harry Galt, owns 50% of every buck you earn, no matter how. You fight for pedal shoelaces, Italian songs, it's all the same. I get my 50% iron clad.  Call me a bum. $100,000. I figure that ought to about cover what you owe me for the first year. Give or take a buck. Get out of here. You're talking to Harry Galt. Take four-way cold tablets to relieve cold miseries fast. Cold tablets proved four-way fastest acting.

You've been drinking too much, Fran. This is an occasion, permission of mice. Whose fault is that? Joe, aren't you going to sing something? I get paid for singing. It was customary after such announcement. Now, with me it isn't. Joe, instead, is going to match that other great tenor, Enrico Caruso, and shatter a wine glass with one mighty note. Are you Joe? No, darling. Anything that Caruso did Joe can do better. Maybe I can. Oh, it's just a legend, Joe. Now, he's proved it. On the other hand, they do say that Yasha Heifetz could shake down the Empire State Building by playing just the right note on his violin. Only Heifetz would prefer to shake down the Chrysler building.  Brits, Chrysler, his rival Fiddler, huh? We get it, Joe. You do? Well, get... give me your glass once. Oh, Joe, Joe.  You'll get the tone of the empty glass by flicking it with your fingernail. Okay. Rigo, why did you... He might learn the lesson of humility from it. Here's my champagne glass. Scratch it with your diamond ring. Scratch the glass and spoil the lesson. Do as I tell you if you love me. Very well. But I wish I had begun my career as a third-rate prize- Joe, Joe, you'll ruin your voice. No, I want you to stop. Give me the glass. When I've broken it. Look out! Oh, I'm sorry. All right. Plenty of glasses. Glass, glass here. Look, look. Take mine since you insist. For luck. The opera hares. We were going to run through some of your music, just the two of us and an accompanist. Oh, that's right. I'll be down a half an hour. I made some money, yeah, but Uncle Sam... It's truly light. Charlie, you're forgetting something. Wait, Kay, there's more. Yes, ice-cold Pepsi is the delicious refreshment that goes great at a picnic or a party. But, John... And Pepsi goes fast. People like it, so keep plenty handy. There. Oh, you did fine, except for one thing. Well, I mentioned lightness and how Pepsi refreshes and how fast it goes. You left out Pepsi's sociability. You know the Be Sociable song. Okay, I can't sing. I can. Listen. Be sociable. Love with Pepsi. Drink like refreshing Pepsi. At least I can say this. Pick up an extra carton of Pepsi today. Please do. Oh, what kept you so long? I got held up in traffic. You're out of breath. Is anything the matter? I had to get out and walk. This cross-town traffic is hopeless. Well, I thought we might run through some of our numbers. Who's that? Who's that out in the audience? They said they were friends of yours. Friends? You out there? At your galt? Present. How'd you get in here? You and all your pals. How'd you get past the doorman? Persuasion, Joe. We persuaded them. Friend, get to a phone. Call the police. Why? I don't understand. He's been following me.  You going someplace? Singing lady? I thought you were smart, galt. This time next week I'll be in big money, but big. I'm just about out of Hock with Uncle Sam now. There'll be plenty of loot now for both of us, galt. Sure. Only you belted me one in your hotel room. You can't buy back that right cross. It hurts. Make it go away, Joey. The backstage phone is dead. Then go to the box office. Go outside. He's going to get me, I tell you. All the passengers are guarded. I can't move, Joe. What's a good word, Joe? Galt, listen. So I made a mistake. Sing, Joe. I'm sorry I hit you, Harry. Sing, Joe. I'd be proud too, Harry. I'd be proud too, Harry. Like the wine glass. And don't look, Galt is sitting under the chandelier. Who are you mumbling at, Joe? Let me in on it. Who are you mumbling at, you girl? It's Jewett. That's who you- Sure, Harry. Let me, uh... Let me limber up the old vocal cords, huh? Why, sure. The chandelier. I did it. I sang down the chandelier. Fran, where are you? I did it. Talk about Caruso. Did you see those bums clear out of here? Fran, where's that devil? Oh, Joe. Where were you? You hadn't missed at all. Galt's gone. He's dead. He's a goner. Fran, it worked. I killed you. You're supposed to be my girl. Where were you? The biggest moment of my life. And I'll be talking about this when I'm dead and gone. Talk about Caruso. I... What do you mean? You killed him. I was in the loft. Loft? The attic, I guess you'll call it. Working the winch. Winch. The check raises and lowers the chandelier for cleaning. I thought if I worked the winch back and forth, if I got the chandelier to swing it, it might break its cable and...  I killed him. I had to, Joe, for you.  I sang it out. I sang down that chandelier. Listen to this. You're mad. But then you never could. Somebody ought to notify the authorities. For Suspense by Milton Geiger.

What's going on everybody? Welcome back to another video. Today, I'm gonna be walking you through my interview process with PwC. I will say that this is one of the longer interview processes that I've been a part of. From start to finish, it took about two months, which is pretty long considering I only had three interviews. Well, four if you consider the recruiter that I talked to and kind of did the initial screening with, but three with actual PwC employees who would be, you know, above me or part of the interview process. If you watched my very last video, you know that when I was applying, I was only targeting a few specific companies. So why was PwC on that list and why did I want to work at PwC? So PwC is part of the big four. They're a very large company. They come with a lot of brand recognition and honestly, the work that they do is really interesting and is completely different than what I do now. Along with that, you could potentially travel, which was something that I was kind of interested in. And I knew a lot of people that worked there who had really good references and a lot of people who really vouched for the company. And so it was just a company that I thought would be, you know, something that was really exciting, really new. And so I figured I would apply and just see where it goes and kind of do my research along the way to see if this would be a good fit for me. So how did I actually apply and get in contact with the recruiter at PwC? Well, I went on the career page on PwC's website just to see if there were any jobs I felt like I actually fit with because I wasn't going to apply if there weren't any jobs, you know, centered around data analytics or things like that. And when I went on there, I found one that I thought was just about perfect, almost everything that I was looking for. It was a senior associate or a senior level position. And it was for a data analyst with pharmaceuticals. And so they were looking for someone who had pharmaceutical experience, which is my background. And so it was just a really good fit. And so I went on LinkedIn. I tried to reach out to a few recruiters and I didn't hear anything back. And that happens, right? I always tell people, you know, go for it, see if you can reach out. That's the best way to do it. But oftentimes you won't hear anything back and that happened to me. So I just decided to apply the regular way. I did reach out to some friends who already worked there.  What's the best way to apply? And they had no idea. And that's totally fine as well. I was just like, hey, no problem. I appreciate it. You know, I'll let you know if there's any if I have any other questions, right? So I applied and it took about maybe four or five days until I actually had a recruiter reach out to me. So when the recruiter called me, she asked me a lot of questions. And so I took a few notes, just ones that I remember that I know she asked. So I'm going to read through those really quickly and just give you some of my thoughts on them. So initially, they just wanted really high level information. She asked questions like, tell me about yourself and tell me a little bit about your work history. So really just kind of walking through my resume. And then tell me about how you've used SQL and Python as stated on your resume. So again, I just went a little bit more in depth than how I actually have it on my resume. She asked me why I wanted to work at PwC. And I think that's a really good question because honestly, PwC is a very unique company. It's a unique work-life balance and style of work. And so I understand why they asked that question because there are people who are not fit for consulting and that kind of work. And so, you know, I try to answer that the best I could and I know the work. I know what it takes to be in that field and that that's something that I've actually pursuing and I think is really interesting. I think that's always a good thing. Why do you think you'll be a good fit for this position? Again, very similar. You know, why do you think consulting at this level is for you? You know, there's a senior associate position. Why do you think you're a good fit? And then the very last question that she asked, and again, all of that went really well, I feel like almost everything I had lined up with that. And in there, I talked a little bit about my pharmaceutical experience, you know, what kind of data I've worked with. I don't think she actively knows about pharmaceuticals. So I didn't go super in depth with it, right? More, again, high level stuff. But I kind of wove that in there because again, this was a data analyst position in pharmaceuticals. So of course, I tried to incorporate that. The very last question she asked is, what are my salary expectations? Now, I don't know what you believe or what you've been told, but I have worked with enough recruiters to know that, honestly, they really are trying to work for you and I don't want to waste their time. They don't want to waste my time. And if my salary expectations are way above or way below what they're looking for, it could just be a mismatch and a misalignment in terms of expectations and, you know, we walk our separate ways.  And then that's it. And it is what it is. I told her 105 to 120. Now, why did I give that range? Um, I could just go in there and say 120. That's what I'm looking for. But again, I don't know their range. Um, and so, and I didn't really care, honestly, because I wanted a raise from my current salary. Um, and you guys know what my current salary was. Uh, I wanted a raise and that's what I wanted, right? I didn't, wasn't expecting, you know, 130, 140. That would have been kind of crazy. That's what I was expecting. And so I wanted her to know that if you guys are within that range, we're good to go. And she confirmed, you know, that's, that's, you know, a good range to be at. We should, we should be good to go. And so we continued on, um, basically the, the review from that or the feedback that I got from that from her right then was that this sounds great. I seem like a really good fit. And she's going to reach out to the hiring manager or the senior manager who I, uh, you know, ended up talking with, and she's going to see if they can get me in for an interview. So now it's getting to the three interviews that I had with the PwC employees. Again, the first one was with the hiring manager and he was a senior manager at PwC. Then there was a director and then another director. Now there's a lot of overlap in the questions that they asked, although I will highlight a little bit of the differences in each one. Um, but I'm going to go most in depth in the first one because, uh, I remember most of the questions that were asked in that interview. So of course these interviews are over zoom and when I get in there with the senior manager, you know, he greets me and he goes into a little bit about the position about himself, um, basically hands it over to me and he just wants to kind of get to know me a little bit.   I always like to add, uh, a little bit of like who I am outside of the office. They may not care or want to hear that, but you know, I think it makes me a little bit more relatable, a little bit more personable. Again, I have a list of questions. I'm just going to kind of, you know, touch on those really quick. Um, they asked a lot about my experience. So they were really, uh, he specifically was really interested in my healthcare experience. What kind of healthcare data have I worked with? Um, you know, have I worked with claims data? Have I worked with PHI? Have I worked with pharmaceutical data? Um, and we talked about that. I would say the majority of the interview. And this was an hour long interview. And so it was quite a bit of time specifically honing in on the type of data that I've used and worked with within the healthcare pharmaceutical space.  I probably just said the same thing twice, but, um, again, a lot of pharmaceutical healthcare, you know, what do you know? He did ask me about what analytical tools I've used. Asked if I knew SQL, Python, um, you know, any cloud platforms, things like that. Cause kind of wanted to gauge, um, my skill level as well as just the things that I used. And I know, um, asked about, um, you know, similar question to what the recruiter said, which is why PWC, you know, why do you want to work here? One thing that was interesting that he said is he said, you know, a lot of people do this backwards of what you're doing. A lot of people will start in consulting and then they'll go and try to work for a Fortune 500 company. Um, and get, you know, a typical nine to five. He's like, but you're doing it in reverse, which happens of course, but you know, tell me why you want to make that jump, why you want to go from a steady nine to five salaried to this, you know, different hours, um, still salaried, but, you know, different in a way, uh, because you'll be working a lot more hours. You know, why would you want to do that? And so I kind of walked him through that. Um, at the end of it, again, I think everything went really well. Uh, you know, he was again throughout the interview when I was saying things, I was getting a lot of good feedback saying, you know, that's what we're looking for. You know, here's some of the things that, um, we actually do. It was very much a conversation. It went really well. And at the end, he gave me time to ask some questions. Here were the three questions that I asked. Um, I wrote them down because I like rain down my question. So these are basically, um, the ones I asked. I asked about the team that I would be working with if we have a set team that we work with, or if they pull from different, um, departments to kind of cater to each project, um, and, you know, not to go into it too much, but basically they pull from all over the country or the world even, uh, for basically project to project. They don't have a set team that I'd be working with. So, uh, any project that I worked with, it could be completely new people that I've never worked with before in that show. I asked about the travel and how they're handling that with COVID. Um, you know, I know consultants typically travel like 50, 60, maybe even up to 80% of their job. Um, and I asked how that's changed things. He said that their team, the pharmaceutical analytics team has been traveling maybe 20%, 30%. It's changed a lot. They do a lot more at home work. Um, which was, uh, you know, not a bad thing at all. And then at the very end, I basically asked about work-life balance. I, you know, this is a job that I knew would take more hours than I currently worked and I wanted to know about how they, um, ensure that there is some type of work-life balance because I have a family and, you know, I was very upfront with that. I didn't, you know, I wasn't out here promising that I was going to work 80 hours a week. I basically was like, look, I have a family, you know, I want to know that I will get this pen time with them and get weekends with them because if not, this isn't going to work. Um, in, you know, I didn't say that explicitly, but, you know, that was kind of what I was getting at. Um, and he said, he said, look, we have lots of people on the team who have families, um, who, who don't work weekends and who don't work after hours. He's like, you know, a lot of what we're doing is mostly just fluid. Like we work when you can, you know, we have to hit deadlines. We have to hit things. Um, but you almost nobody works weekends unless you want to. And most people are working just, you know, up until about 5 p.m. And then they cut off some people. They, you know, don't work earlier in the day and they make it up at night. He's like, but it's pretty flexible. You know, you might work over 40 hours and it's definitely possible. But at the same time, you know, the hours are not going to be insane. Like you've probably heard in the past, which was really good to hear. Um, and so, you know, that was a lot of that interview. Um, I would say 90% of it was focused on my domain knowledge. So if you take anything away from this, um, it was that the domain knowledge for this job was 90% of what they were looking for. Um, of course I, and I didn't end up getting or taking or getting this job. So I don't know the actual work that would have been involved, but it sounds like domain knowledge was extremely important to them, regardless of what tools you knew or in regardless of how skilled you were at, you know, sequel Python, Tableau, everything else. Domain knowledge. So just, you know, something to think about the next interviews with a director and she asked a lot of similar questions. Um, the one thing I will say is that she probably got even more in depth into the pharmaceutical. She was asking, you know, very, very, um, I don't even know, again, I don't want to say specific, but very specific questions.  You know, tell me about how you use that data. Can you explain a project? Um, that you've used that kind of data with. And so it was very, very specific. And I, I, I could tell that the way I was answering though was, was very satisfactory because at each one she was like, okay, that's, you know, we work on projects just like that we use that kind of data to do exactly what you use it for, which was always really good to hear. It means I have the experience that they're looking for. Um, again, that was an hour long interview. That was like two weeks after my very first interview with the hiring manager. So, um, to back up just a second, you know, I got on the call with the hiring manager, I got off of it. I called my recruiter said it went really well. She said she'd follow up with him. Uh, she's, you know, got back to me probably the next day and said everything went really well. Let's try schedule the next one and here's the person you'll be interviewing with. Um, they didn't send me a link or anything to sign up for the next interview for another three or four days. Um, so that was that whole week of, of waiting. Um, so I was one week basically of the end of the interview to actually setting up the next interview. That was one week. They didn't have an opening for the next week, so I had to wait until the Monday of so basically two weeks and a day, um, before my next interview. Uh, and so we set that up. It went well. I got through that, uh, that the second one with the director, um, I think was the best interview so far. Just again, we just kind of hit it off. Went really well. I asked similar questions. So nothing really new. So again, I'm not going to go super in depth into that one. The third one was more interesting. So I'll highlight that one a little bit more. Um, so the second one went well again, it was another probably two and a half, three weeks until I got the next interview. And this is my final interview. The final interview was different in the fact that this guy had done some research on me. So he had found me, um, and, um, was asking a lot more about my YouTube channel, which I'm going to get to all of that, uh, in a little bit because throughout this whole process, they knew I had a YouTube channel, um, and I just didn't want to make that the whole video. I'll talk about that at the end. But this guy came in and he was like, hey, love your YouTube channel, man. He's like super cool. Love the videos. Super high quality, best channel I've ever seen. He didn't say that. But, um, you know, he really liked the YouTube channel. And it was great to hear, um, but also a little bit intimidating because this guy is like really high up in the company that you want to work for. And so, you know, what does he know about me? I don't know. I don't know what videos he's seen.  We talked about that.    And so again, just really interesting, lighthearted, um, conversation. We talked about that for quite a while. Really interesting. And, and I'll get into that in a little bit. The whole interview though went really well. I wouldn't say it was any different than the first two. It really was talking about, you know, just tell me a little bit more about your pharmaceutical experience. And I would say that he probably talked most of the interview. I, I was asking more questions than he was asking me. I really think that he just wanted to make sure that I knew everything that I was getting into kind of. Whereas I passed the first two and those were more getting, making sure I was a good fit. This last one was more making sure I understood the position I wanted to be there. Um, and so again, I'm not going to go too in depth into it. I think the same questions that apply in the first and second one, those were the biggest ones that first one was covered 95% of what I asked and what he asked, or what they asked in general. So let's get into the YouTube stuff a little bit because throughout this entire process, they knew that I had a YouTube channel. I want to kind of talk about how that affected the interviews. And what came out of that. So first off, you know, the hiring managers, the one who asked me about the, my YouTube channel, he had found me on LinkedIn, found my YouTube channel, thought it was really cool. We didn't talk about that much, but he notified the recruiter. So when I talked to the recruiter after that hiring manager, basically what she asked was, you know, tell me a little bit about this, you know, why, why do you do it? Is it really interesting? What's it about? Do you have a link? So I sent her a link. And, you know, there was no feedback from that. It was just, that's really cool. Send me a link. And so I sent her a link after the second interview, two or three weeks later, the recruiter called me and said, hey, that interview went really well. Can we talk a little bit more about this YouTube channel? I was like, sure, of course. What do you want to know? And she asked if it was something that I was going to be willing to give up, you know, asked if, you know, the current, my current company had an issue with it. I said, no, I've met with our legal team. I've emailed them. I've told them the type of content that I post. They've looked into it and they said everything's clear. I can absolutely make videos for the company that I work for. And so that put her at ease a little bit, but she said, you know, I have to, I have to bring this to our legal team to make sure that it's okay. So, you know, in the interim, she wanted to know if it was something I'd be willing to give up or if that was a deal breaker. And I told her it was a deal breaker.  I already had a good position. I'm not looking to leave unless it's something really good. The YouTube was non-negotiable for me. You guys know I love doing this. I love you guys. I just can't do it. And she understood. And so I didn't think it was a big deal because if they decided they didn't want me because of that, I had other opportunities or I could just stay where I was at. And if she looked into it and it wasn't a big deal, then they could offer me a job and fantastic. So I go into my third interview with the last director, the guy who was a fan. And after I got out of that interview, you know, he even mentioned it in there. He, you know, while we were talking about the YouTube stuff that, you know, she was looking into it and he hopes that's not an issue. He doesn't think that's an issue. And so again, after that interview, the recruiter calls me, says she thinks she's going to be hearing from their legal team soon. So I just wait. Again, there's no pressure from that at all. You know, if I get it, I get it if not, if not. If not, it's no big deal. So she gives me a call back a few days later and she said that the legal team, it was totally fine that as long as I wasn't posting negative things about the company that it was all all right. And they offer me the job. Well, some background to this is that a week before that conversation where they offer me the job, I messaged her and said, Hey, I just got a job offer at my current company for a manager level position, which as you guys know, I accepted. I said, is there any way to expect this process because I had an interview and then they have to give me an offer and, you know, I have to accept or decline like really soon because I already just got an offer from this other position. I don't know if I said they gave me an offer, I accepted, but they had given me an offer. They had offered me the job and I had to sign the paperwork within three days of them giving me the offer. And so I said, is there any way to expedite this? And she said, no, there's no way to expedite this. It's just a long process, yadda yadda, which I 100% guarantee that's true. So I accepted the job after three days and, you know, they didn't get back to me for another like four or five days after that. And so in that interim of those four or five days, it was a lot of, well, if they were to offer me the job, will I accept it?  I was like, I'm already accepted this position. I'm really excited about it. I think it's maybe even a better fit than the PWC job. And so it was a no-brainer for me. It was, I just was going to turn it down. Honestly, if they had expedited that process and offered me that job two, three weeks ago, I would have accepted and I wouldn't have even probably interviewed for the manager position because I didn't think I had that big of a chance. And so, you know, that's all just part of the process, right? Every company does things differently. All these timelines for these interviews are different. There are a lot of variables and I understand that. And so, you know, in the end, I think I got the best job for me that I possibly could have. I think that, you know, me turning them down was not a big deal to me. I didn't even get to the salary part of it to negotiate because I knew I wasn't accepting the position. So they offered me to me and I just said no. And that was it. I genuinely enjoyed the interviews. I think they were the most in-depth interviews I've ever done, just healthcare-wise. Like, very, very, very domain-heavy. I never got any technical question. They never did any whiteboarding questions. It was only, I would say, 90% domain-specific questions. So that's what they cared about. That is the entire process. It was long. It felt like it took forever. I didn't even end up staying with them. But I know a lot of you guys are trying to get jobs at these consulting companies. And so I just wanted to give you my take on it, the things that they asked me, the things that I asked, how that whole process went.  I, of course, may have different experiences than you did. But, you know, just giving my two cents on it because it's interesting and every company does things differently. So if you are trying to interview at PWC, you know, there's hopefully some helpful information in there. And if not, I'm sorry, I did my best. So, you know, I appreciate you watching. I appreciate you listening and making it all this way. If you like this video, be sure to like and subscribe below. And I'll see you in the next video.


So hello to everyone who decided to join this event, the CanWhisp 2021. My name is Tomasz Wolenski, and I will walk you through the product introduction to RF Elements antennas and other products as well. Our product range covers antennas, integration platforms and brackets, but today I will speak mainly about the antennas and a little bit about the integration platforms at the end. So the product map you see shows our antennas organized according to the beam shape, connector interface and gain. The beam shape is changing in the vertical direction. So the symmetrical antennas are in the top two lines and the asymmetrical ones below in the third line. In the horizontal direction, the gain is increasing from left to right. But before we go to the antennas themselves, I will speak about the twist port and twist port adapters, which are displayed on the bottom line, and now you can see them zoomed in to help you understand the advantages of the twist port compared to the traditional coaxial connector interface. Twist port is RF Elements proprietary waveguide connector for connecting radio with antennas. And twist port has two essential advantages. So first, because it is a waveguide connector, twist port introduces practically zero loss into the system. Now this is very important to achieve excellent RF performance and to reach the furthest customers you possibly can. And second, twist port combines the radio mounting and RF connection into a single and easy to use interface. It is extremely easy and safe to operate. Twist port is not only a RF connector between the radio and the antenna, but also mounts the radio on the antenna at the same time. So when you insert and twist the radio, it locks in automatically and stays mounted. And unlocking is equally easy. Just twisting the outer locking ring, the radio is released and you can really reverse the movement of installation. In our reference radio design, back in 2014, we removed the pigtails and integrated the twist port male connector directly into this circuit board of a radio. And this radio, the radio can be attached to any twist port antenna while introducing practically zero loss. And this is why we consider twist port being a truly revolutionary interface, introducing a whole new ecosystem built on the advantages of the waveguide and excellent mechanical design. And all this together enables easy connection with virtually zero loss RF performance. The twist port adapter solves a simple task of converting the coaxial radio interface of third-party radios into the twist port male interface. And the adapter enables intuitive connection of both the radio and the antenna, actually. The twist port adapters are easy to use and have very low loss. Now you can see on the animation what is inside of a typical twist port adapter. So the coaxial cables are connecting the waveguide to the radio connectors. And these are high quality cables with semi-rigid shielding. And the cables are integrated in the adapter body. And because of this, you do not need to bend, connect or disconnect and constantly handle these cables over and over, which results into very stable and lasting performance. Now the rest of the adapter is designed to accommodate most popular radios used in Wisp industry. Since most of the radios have different body shape, we have a number of twist port adapters to fit them naturally. And all the adapters I will show you on the following slides are compatible with every twist port antenna. So you do not need to worry that you will need a separate twist port adapter for each antenna. No, every twist port adapter fits any twist port antenna. And twist port adapters have three types of connection on the side of the radio. So first, the most common radio interface is a pair of SMA connectors. So the radios with coaxial output are connected to the corresponding adapter by sliding the radio in until it clicks and locks the radio in place. Second, few radios in the Wisp industry have a waveguide output. And assembling a few parts together converts the third party waveguide output to the twist port male connector. And thirdly, finally, many micro-tick radios come as bare PCBs without any enclosure whatsoever. In which case you need to insert the whole PCB into our adapter to make it work, as you can see from the animation. It is important to emphasize that twist port adapters work with any twist port antenna. And the adapters are specific on the side of the radio, simply because of different shapes of those third party radios. But on the side of the antenna, there is always the same twist port connector which is compatible with any twist port antenna. So once you have the right adapter for your radio, you're all set and you can connect it with any twist port antenna. We have twist port adapters for all the four major radio brands in Wisp industry. So Cambium, Mimosa, Ubiquiti and MicroTik and all of them are very easy and reliable radio installation and removal. For Cambium we have two adapters, TPA-EPMP in the top row and TPA-ADAPT-E2K on the bottom. So the TPA-EPMP is compatible with EPMP-1000 both the client and the AP version. But also this adapter is compatible with the newest radios from Cambium. So the EPMP-3000L-AP as well as the client version of this radio. The TPA adapter on the bottom, the E2K, works with the EPMP-2000 as well as the new Force 400C, the EPMP Force 400C, the recently released 802.11AX radio from Cambium. For Ubiquiti we have four adapters. So the TPA path, the first one on the top left, is compatible with the Rocket Prism 5AC and the 5AC Gen 2, so both generations. And also both generations of the air fiber, so meaning air fiber 5X and 5X HD as well as the LTU rocket. So this one adapter is compatible with five different radios. So the twist port adapter for ISO station is in the lower left side, is compatible with the ISO station M5, Prism station and ISO station 5AC which are the wave guard radios from Ubiquiti. And the older Rocket M5 works with the TPA-RM5 and the Rocket 5AC Lite works with the TPA-R5AC. For Mimosa radios we have the twist port adapter, the TPA-C5C, compatible with the C5C radio. The C5X, a waveguide based Mimosa radio works with the TPA-C5X. And for the newest A5X radio we have the TPA-A5X. For those who are using the micro-tig radios we have the twist port adapter TPA-RBP with the fully plastic body. So this adapter is fully plastic and the TPA-RBC in the top row has a full metal body. It's the twist port adapter that offers protection of the radio from the changing weather and noise somewhat better than the plastic counterpart. But both of them are compatible with the router board 4, 7 and 9 series of the micro-tig radios as well as the M11. Finally, for those who prefer using twist port antennas with the third party radios for which we do not have a matching custom made adapter we have the connectorized twist port adapter which is available or is equipped with the two SMA connectors to which you can connect anything you like with the cable. Since this is a lot of information to remember, so which twist port adapter fits with what radio we prepared a little cheat sheet for you for your quick reference. So you can download this cheat sheet as a printable PDF from our webpage in the download section when you slide all the way down on our homepage. So horn sector antennas are by far the most effective technology to deal with the RF noise. So let's look at the detailed explanation how. While the traditional sector antennas radiate pretty much into every direction which you can see on the right side of this slide, the horn radiates only in the direction of the main loop. So this is the essential advantage of horns, there's zero side lobes radiation pattern. Now since side lobes collect and transmit the noise, getting rid of the side lobes equals getting rid of the noise. But simply saying an antenna has zero side lobes is somewhat vague. So it's like saying well I drove very fast instead of saying I drove 200 km per hour when it's clear to everyone how fast you actually drove. So is there a measure of the amount of side lobes an antenna has? Yes there is, it's beam efficiency. So it is the ratio of the energy contained in the main loop to the total energy an antenna radiates. In other words it says what part of the radiated energy is going into the main loop. So the higher the beam efficiency is, the less side lobes an antenna has. The maximum beam efficiency is 100%, which is the best case. The closer to 0% the beam efficiency is, the more side lobes an antenna has. Beam efficiency makes comparison of two antennas in terms of the side loop performance extremely easy. The higher number wins, that's it. And in this example you can see the symmetrical horn has beam efficiency of 94%. So only 6% of the power it radiates is in the side lobes. A typical patch array sector on the other hand has a beam efficiency of 69%. So the remaining 31% of the energy it radiates is in the side lobes. So 94% is clearly more than 69%. And therefore symmetrical horn is much better antenna in terms of noise suppression. And the rest of our horn sectors are no worse whatsoever. In fact the average beam efficiency across all our antennas is 93%. So the ultra horn for example has beam efficiency of 99%, which makes it the best antenna in terms of the noise suppression on the waste market in our opinion. Collocating an increasing amount of patch array sectors is problematic. You see a gradual decline of the network throughput and stability until you arrive at a point where an additional sector, even one more additional sector kills the site completely. Now with horns this problem is practically nonexistent. The zero side loop pattern enables predictable dense collocations without any degradation of the network performance. Since they don't have any side lobes they don't collect or transmit their surrounding noise. So how densely can you collocate horns? And that's the question. These images give you a clear answer very densely. So many so many sectors on one side are only possible when using horns. Like no traditional sector will let you do this kind of deployments and installs. The frequency stability of the radiation pattern of a horn is unmatched. So you can see it changing a little bit with the frequency but the resulting change of the coverage area is negligible. The frequency stability is a factor important for connection stability when changing the channels. So with the horns there is practically no change in the coverage throughput of the useful spectrum throughout the useful spectrum. Most pantry sector antennas have many side lobes and unfortunately also the main lobe that changes with frequency. It has both side lobes and the main lobe change with frequency. And this result in too fluctuating coverage of a sector perceived throughout the sector and especially by the customers at the edges of a sector is unstable throughput. Not to say the added noise because of all those big and many side lobes. The maximum gain further illustrates the stability of horns. So the red gain curve is almost completely flat. And that's the gain of the horns in general. Whereas with the traditional sector the gain changes drastically within the same frequency band which is completely undesirable. So ideally the gain curve should be completely horizontal and this is what horns practically do have already. Unlike any antenna technology on the market the RFLM and horns offer a unique toolset of 11 different antennas that let you optimize the coverage you provide regardless of the customer density or distribution. But the denser the sector is with the customers the narrower beam width you want to use and vice versa. The lower customer density areas are better covered with the wider beam width horns. All the favorable properties of horn technology enable unlimited scalability of 5GHz wireless networks because if a sector performs reliably and with the minimum noise and you can keep adding more and more sectors without degrading the performance of those already in place you have won. You can plan your network coverage with precision and with all the horns at hand. The sky is the limit on how big your network can actually be. And this is the core message of our technology, the sustainable and fast wireless. Here's what a traditional patch array sector antenna with their narrow beam and the elevation plane horn. Horns can have symmetrical beam for example meaning it has the same width in the azimuth and elevation so that's the case with the symmetrical horns. The asymmetrical horns with half the radiation pattern that combines the best of the horn technology and the patch array sectors. So on one hand it's the shape of the main beam that is similar to the patch array sector with the narrow beam width in the elevation plane compared to the symmetrical horn of course. But at the same time it has the zero side lobes as all our horns do. With the traditional patch array sectors it is hard to cover the areas near the site. With horns both symmetrical and asymmetrical this problem is practically non-existent. Thanks to the extra beam width in the elevation plane the horns offer the coverage of the areas near the tower is automatic regardless of the landscape type. Under this difference is most obvious in the mountainous areas. Here the traditional patch arrays fail completely fail because of their narrow elevation beam width again but horns do just fine. Again thanks to the wider radiation pattern in the elevation plane. The down tilt is a huge factor influencing the coverage area when you're using the traditional patch array sectors. You can see that anything beyond a few degrees of the down tilt makes the patch arrays practically useless. You completely lose the coverage of the distant areas and all that it takes is a few degrees of down tilt. Now with horns the down tilt is an added functionality. The coverage area smoothly shrinks while maintaining its shape so changing the down tilt you can dynamically change the sector coverage as you wish obviously depending on the situation as well as decrease the noise level because the bigger the down tilt the less noise you see and receive from the distant areas. The size of your horns makes their installation easy even on a crowded site and saves you the tower rental fees too. So with their size being a fraction of the traditional patch array sectors you can fit much more sectors in the same place when comparing the traditional patch array technology and our horn technology. The 30 degree asymmetrical horn has a beam switch feature so swapping the position of the handle and the bracket the radiation pattern rotates 90 degrees. So you switch from the 30 degree beam width to the 20 degree beam width in case you need to for example narrow down the sector you cover. And beam switch basically makes this antenna really two in one because just by the simple mechanical adjustment you can switch the beam width this antenna offers. Our bracket is extremely sturdy and simple to use at the same time. We've really minimized the number of parts needed to mount our antennas with at the same time no compromise whatsoever to the strength of the attachment is durability and ease of use. All you need are two bolts to mount the bracket and after you adjust the aiming and align the antenna to the maximum signal all you need to do is to tighten a few bolts to fix the position and the antenna is installed as simple as that. You don't know complicated brackets that you have to pre-assemble or make sure that you don't drop the parts that are so many in number. Just a few bolts they're really the minimum possible to maintain the quality and reliable connection with the tower. Our antennas are built to last and we use high quality die cast stamped or extruded aluminium stainless steel, stainless steel hardware and UV resistant plastics. So you can deploy horns in all kinds of climates and weather conditions with really the guarantee of durability and horns give you the freedom to use a suitable tool for any kind of situation you're in. So sometimes you know this is something that you may not be actually used to if you use mainly the traditional sectors. Now take the example in the middle, the symmetrical horn for a dense customer area, the asymmetrical horn on the bottom for a less dense area and with the customers further apart and our patchery sector in the middle for the very low customer density base. So a wonderful use case of all three types of horns on one side. Super dense collocations and super dense sectors you can see here are our new exception for horns and our new problem whatsoever at the same time. And all these sectors provide excellent and stable performance, something you can only achieve with horns. Or for example these are narrow sectors with three ultra horns on the right. The cluster deployments are simply effortless with horns. So with horns, in general you have two options for radio connectivity, let's have a look. You can choose horns with the twist board, which we already introduced in length at the beginning. So it's our proprietor with guide connector with practically zero loss and super easy installation and removal of the radio. Or you may prefer the female and connector interface, which is a traditional coaxial interface for cases when for some reason using twist port adapter is not an option for you. So the antennas are actually identical from the RF point of view. So the gain and the bandwidth are completely the same. The only difference is the connector interface. And now let's have a short look at our horn accessories. Twin horn bracket is a mounting bracket for two symmetrical horns of any beam width and for both the twist port and the CC connectorized version with the end connectors. So the twin horn bracket comes with an improved mounting bracket and comfortable handle, which you can clip to a carbine or four for easy holding up the tower. And mind you, just to repeat and make it clear above all, this bracket is only meant for symmetrical horn antennas. The twin horn bracket has two default options for radio mounting. So the four channel radio, the Cambium Networks EPMP 3000 or Mimosa A5C. And twin horn bracket makes the high density sectors easy to aim or enables you to leverage the four by four MIMO setup. You can also use twin horn bracket with two radios with the twist port adapters and use one sector as the backup for example. The bracket gives you many options of how to use it with headache free alignment and for a complete list of the compatibility of the adapters with the twin horn bracket, you should check the datasheet to the bracket on our page. And now we come to our parabolic dish antennas. The ultra dish is directional parabolic dish with optimized side low performance. It comes in two sizes. So the ultra dish TP400 which stands for 400 millimeters and the ultra dish TP550 which has the diameter of 550 millimeters. So their gain is 24 for the smaller one and 27 for the bigger one. And the antennas are available already now and they're sold in convenient four packs. The radiation pattern of ultra dish provides high gain needed for these long distance lengths with suppressed side loops for increased noise immunity. And with this type of antennas completely avoiding the side loops is actually really not possible. What is possible though and what was performed with our dish antennas is that we optimized the design of the antenna to suppress the side loops which results into improved performance when compared to competitive products. And the improved performance is possible without the need to install any additional shielding. Both of our ultra dish antennas have a very stable gain over the whole bandwidth of operation. And the difference between the horizontal and vertical chains is so small that the gain curves in the graphs are practically overlapping which is why you see only one curve in each of the graphs. And the balanced performance of the horizontal and vertical system is important for planning of a stable and reliable link. So as you change the polarization you see exactly the same performance. Ultra dish is suitable for areas with high surrounding noise levels and typically those are most of the urban and suburban areas. Now the ultra dish delivers highly focused beam suppressing the surrounding noise. Cleaner radiation pattern of ultra dish also eliminates unwanted connections to multiple access points simply because of the lack of those side loops, you know the antenna and consequently the radio doesn't see those neighboring access points. And here are some examples of the ultra dish deployments. And maybe if you check our social media channels you can see a lot more installations or examples of these installations of ultra dish or actually any of our antennas for that matter. Now on to our patch array sector antenna. So if you should use a patch array sector antenna it should be AS520. So with 20 dbi gain and 100 degree beam width at minus 6 decibels. And this antenna is also designed to work in the unlicensed 5 gigahertz band. The array sector is patch array antenna equipped with our proprietary back shield technology. And back shield is frequency selective surface and it is integrated directly in the antenna body. It is designed to effectively suppress the back radiation so you do not need to use any additional shield or reflectors with these antennas. Everything is included in the package. Array sector is designed to have the same radiation pattern for both polarizations to ensure perfect coverage at these sector edges. And this is a very important feature for a sector antenna to deliver equal coverage in both horizontal and vertical system. And this graph is telling you that in the whole useful bandwidth starting from 5.1 up to 5.9 gigahertz the gain of our patch array sector is completely stable. So the top two lines are completely flat. And this is a feature truly unique and difficult to achieve with patch array antennas. The stability of the gain you see with our patch array antenna is important for reliable performance as you switch the channels. Again, switching the channel you see absolutely no difference to the antenna performance. And the AS520 can easily be connected to many commonly used radios in the new wave industry. Now with the standard bracket all it takes to connect the radio is to slide it in until it clicks and the hood on the top of the radio and on top of the cable interface protects the radio and the connection from the impinging weather conditions. So let's now move on to shortly discover our integration platforms. The station box aluminium is a small form factor enclosure which is suitable for many IoT or other wireless applications. And it is made of solid aluminium so it protects your circuit board from the elements and RF noise very well. The files for the 3D printing of various insert boards that help you integrate the circuit boards are actually available for download on our webpage. So again if you go to our homepage, slide all the way down and click on the download section you'll find those 3D printing files there. The station box is very easy to install and connect to. So as you see from this animation it only takes a few minutes to attach the holder to the pole and even less to mount the station box itself onto it. And besides that the mounting bracket is also made of aluminium so it will last for a long time in all kinds of conditions and weather. The station box ALU is our bigger integration platform that accommodates larger sized boards or more smaller ones. It's really up to you. The space the station box ALU provides gives you a lot of options. So the station box ALU is made of diecast aluminium and the paint on the surface is made of UV resistant. And with the IP55 rating it will withstand and resist any weather conditions. So the plastic board with many options for the integration of the MicroTik, AVIX or TP-Link boards for full compatibility list actually you should again check the data sheet on our webpage. So you can mount the station box on a pole or mount it on the wall if you want it's really up to you. The essence of this integration platform is that it really offers you a lot of options with a lot of possible outputs you can use and have at your disposal. So at RF Elements we address the problem of RF noise by changing the paradigm of fixed wireless industry. We're sending a new industry standard for RF performance, noise rejection and overall system scalability. And our hardware comes with the surface coated bolts. So the black bolts you see on this image are actually having a surface coating that prevents these bolts from getting seized. So no more you have to be afraid of seizing the bolts and having to drill the whole bracket down.  And as much as we care for the RF industry as our main resource we equally care about the planet. And we're eliminating the use of plastic foam and plastic bags in our product packaging. And we're trying to gradually achieve paper based packaging on all our products. And all our newest releases are packed in carton packages as the one shown in the picture. One of the most common questions our customers have is where to buy our products. So on our landing page RFelements.com you have the stock locator on the top line. Taking that it brings you to the page you see and selecting the product you're looking for and your geographical region. The tool the stock locator will show you the list of distributors that have this product in stock and that are nearest to you. Another very frequent question our customers have how far our antennas go. So again on our landing page you can find on the right side you can find the tab which says link calculator or link calc and short.  You can set the access point, the CPE settings, the frequency, the gains of the antennas and on and obviously of course you can select our antennas to see what coverage you can actually provide and how far. Also I would like to invite you to join our virtual community. So the rfelab.com is our user forum where you know upon registering you can ask your questions. Anything about our products really whatever is interested is in your interest. You can ask us directly there and I would really recommend it because it's really one of the fastest ways to get the answer to the question you might be having. And on top of that we also put the recordings of our webinars to this platform. Or you can even search through the questions that were already asked in the past of course. We also have a large user base using the social media channels. So the Facebook group rfilementsenglish is also a great resource so where you can also actually ask questions and search through the questions and experience of your fellow WISPs. If you check our YouTube channel and type inside wireless or just simply go to that playlist you'll find quite a few short educational videos on all kinds of topics from the world of rf engineering.  This is a really great resource we warmly recommend to use. These videos are very short typically around 30 to 5 minutes and really explain the concepts that might be very useful for your daily life as a WISP. And finally I would like to just mention that the trademarks we mentioned and used in this presentation are solely referencing the combatability of those third party products with our antennas. And thank you very much. This has been everything and thank you for your attention. This is all that we wanted to share with you today and again if you have any questions please stop by and don't hesitate to ask. Thank you and have a great day.


Localized surface plasmas, LSP, are a type of electromagnetic wave that can be generated when light interacts with metal surfaces. LSPs are known to be lorsi and generate heat, which makes them difficult to measure accurately. This is particularly problematic in plasmonic applications such as catalysis, where the temperature of the particles needs to be monitored. In this study, researchers investigated the effect of temperature on the performance of bimetallic nanoparticles consisting of gold and palladium. They found that the presence of palladium significantly reduced the amount of heat produced by the particles, suggesting that it could be used to improve the efficiency of plasmon-assisted catalysis. Additionally, they measured the temperature of individual nanoparticles using single particle thermometer, providing insight into how the morphology of the particles affects their ability to convert light to heat. Overall, these findings provide valuable information about the role of temperature in plasmon-assisted catalysis, and suggest potential strategies for improving its efficiency.

The epithelial to mesenchymal transition, EMT, is a fundamental process by which epithelial cells acquire mesenchymal phenotypes and the ability to migrate. This process is essential for normal embryonic development and is also involved in cancer metastasis. During gastrulation, epiblast cells ingress from the primitive streak to form mesoderm. The ingression of these cells is dynamic and involves a stereotypical sequence of cell behaviors, including the asynchronous ingression of epiblast cells and the concomitant shrinking of their apical surface. This shrinking is driven by the coordinated contraction of actomyosin networks and crumbs two complexes, which are important regulators of this process. These findings provide new insights into how epiblast cells ingress and suggest that crumbs two may be a key regulator of the EMT process. This article was authored by Alexandra Franco, Catherine V. Anderson and Anna Caterina had gentanacus.
