well kailadai, personally, I don't care what Veritis do or have done. I am not "her" who you think I am -- not a good thing to assume people's identity. I was just giving out information that I had. I got trained from Veritis. I have to acknowledge that it was a rough road for me in the beginning, but I had all the skills that I needed from the company which helped me get into a great financial company. Maaila's friend might be in a different situation than yours. All Nepalese brothers/sisters cannot right away start asking for 80/20 -- they got to build their skills first. I have come across lots of Nepalese folks out from college and making $6/hr in gas station wasting their time not knowing the opportunities out there. We are here to help out each other but not to criticize or assume stuffs. Peace! haami

what is the websit of that consulatancy company? can you send me the link.

Hello Local what is the website of that conultancy company that you have taken tranning.

HAAMI, DO NOT GET EXICITED ABOUT MY COMMENTS... YOU MIGHT BE IN A DIFFERENT SITUATION... I AM TALKING ABOUT ALL THE NEPS THAT I HAVE MET THAT WORKED FOR VERITIS... I KNOW A COUPLE OF THEM DID ALSO TRANSFER TOO... IF YOU ARE SO WELL SET WITH VERITIS CAN YOU TELL ME HOW MUCH DID YOU START WITH BECAUSE AS I MENTIONED I HAD MY OWN JOB SEARCHED AND EVERYTHING BUT STILL THEY DID NOT WANT ME TO GET THE 80-20 RATIO.. IF VERITIS IS NOT TRAINING ME NOR SPENDING A DIME IN ME WHY IS IT HARD TO GO FOR A DECENT OFFER... MY COMPANY GIVES ME 80-20 I WILL GIVE THE NAME OF MY COMPANY THEY ARE PRETTY GOOD.. VERITIS MIGHT BE GOOD BUT MY EXPERIENCE AS WELL AS SOME PPL THAT I HAVE HEARD ARE HAVING BAD EXPERIENCES.... TO GIVE YOU A ROUND NUMBER I HAVE TALKED TO ATLEAST 15 NEPS WORKING FOR VERITIS THAT ARE NOT HAPPY AT ALL.... GUYS NOT IN ONE FIELD BUT ALL J2EE, SQL, ORACLE, UNIX, QA, COGNOS ALL DIFFERENT GUYS HAVE THE SAME THING NOT PAYING GOOD... YOU TALK ABOUT $6/HR GAS STATION MOST OF THE GUYS IN TX COME FROM THAT BACK GROUND MAY BE YOU CAME FROM THE SAME BACK GROUND AS WELL... IF VERITIS IS GETTING 100 K A YEAR FOR THE SAME CONSULTANT WHY NOT PAY THEM SOMEWHERE CLOSE TO 70 K - 80 K.. VERITIS WILL GET 20 K A YEAR WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT... SO THAT BOTH OF YOU GUYS WILL BE HAPPY YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN... HAAMI I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT YOU ARE A NEPALI BUT WHY IS IT THAT YOU ARE SUPPORTING THESE BLUDDY DHOTIS... SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT... PEACE

Is there any consulting company for business major such as Accounting or Finance?

truely , thanks Local :)

Local, can you also please provide a phone number or some contact information of the dept or a person that we should talk in that company. Please post it here or email me at : cortaidus@yahoo.com thanks a lot again..

Business, Finance, enginering, no matter what is yr background if you r in OPT, go for these comapnies, it is the hot market for QA,BA to enter. JUst do some homeworks before joining. They are basically spread all over major cities. Choose one that is close to u and visit them personally. Ask questions like.....how many days in week u will get training? how long is their experience? how long they has been in the market? do they ve full time trainer or is it only in weekends?.........etc.... Some of these CO. run in one small office without proper classrooms and labs to practice. Nothing wrong but why choose rotten apple if u can choose guud apples. g luck to u all..........make yr future bright..........

kaila bro, I got trained from veritis, and yes I did start from salary ranging in or around $55k. I have no regrets though, for the position I am in right now. I wouldn't say I am defending Veritis, as I have no cause to do so. You talk about supporting dhotis! If they weren't there, imagine where you would be. I am sure you have gotten or sought some sort of help from them. As far as your comment of me, might be coming from $6/hr background -- I only know this: Most of us came from Nepal with a similar vision for our future, and that's my background, and so very well might be yours. Cheers! haami

Anybody know of this company called Dibon. They are located in Texas but have a branch here in Boston as well New Jersey. Their addr here in boston is: 10 floor, 100 State Street, MA

kaila Dai, I was in the same situation with Veritis Group. I know every nepali who works with Veritis. Veritis offered me 50k to start with. I found a job on my own on 75/hr and i keep 80% of it with different company. I was on OPT, i got trained on my own and they didnt have to invest anything on me. Every nepali i know are trying to get out of Veritis because of the pay. There are some indians who are on 80/20 but no nepali with veritis. There are lots of companies who offer 80/20. If you are in TX, there is a company named Saga, sagacs.com is the webpage, these offer 80/20 as well. If i had stayed with Veritis i would have made 26/hr but now im making 60/hr on my first project. By the way i dont belong to SAGA. But go to sulekha.com and negotiate with different companies. U are in a better postion if ur on an OPT. Couple good things about veritis is that the owner is very polite person and he runs his payroll on time. But the pay sux!!! And miss Lina is great and she advocates Veritis for its low pay.

Stay away from Dibon. These people are bad. If you are in boston i know a good company there.

" What building skill are u talking about, now i know that you are Lina itself. So you are telling people here that just cos u gotta build skills, u need to let Veritis take half of the bill rate. If you are thief(Resume Fakers) and so is Veritis( promotes fake resume) why is it that the consultant needs to sacrifice his pay for Veritis when he can get more somewhere else. Are you saying that if the consultant goes for 80/20 wont build his skills. Look at your reasoning, a third world currupt reasoning i would say. So in ur opinion someone who is making 6/per hr should be used for 60/hr job and should be paid 20/hr. Let me give you one metaphore here. Lets say that you were one abused housewife in Nepal and your husband used to kick you 10 "latti" a day. Then you found another husband who only kicked you 5 laatti a day. Does that mean ur better off than what u had before. The point is Veritis pays least and there are other companies who pay more. Consultants go for the one who pays the most regardless of their skill set. Got it?

Visit sulekha.com for better rates.

For anyone wanting to be in the consulting business... sulekha.com is the shit man. The site's got plenty of businesses looking for people to work for them. Similarly eknazar.com is also a good place to look for jobs for all ya IT nepali dajubhais didbahinis out there. Happy belated Mardi Gras to all!
