I’ve had at least 5 companies in a row tell me I did great on interviews and would receive an offer. Only to get that denial email. The job market is different now. Don’t take it personal and keep shooting.

How long do yall see this Lasting?

My new gig asked me if I want to start a month earlier than scheduled(December vs January). :lupe:

December will give me a quiet month to launch and some change in my pocket but I’m kinda enjoying my break. :ld:

Tell them yes, but you already had a family trip planned the last two weeks of December so you're not stuck there during the holidays

NYC brehs getting that pay transparency on job postings tomorrow...this is huge having all those big NY companies have to reveal pay ranges :whoo:
It's just base salary and usually a bullshyt range. But it's a start.

Pay Transparency on my resume as all these companies trying to figure it out :blessed:

They got me thinking it’s a problem, but these fools have the app reloading on the same schedule with the source data update.

The apps reload from Qlik data files, which take seconds, it takes 5 minutes for those data files to update from SQL.

If the SQL query takes 5 minutes to run, starts at 12, why is the app updating at 12pm too? You’re not going to get any new data until the Sql is finished.

To top it off it’s not concurrent so they could get a set of old data and a set of new data. Just schedule it after the entire process has ran.

Got forced back into the office last week. I was dreading this since late 2020 but the experience is completely different than pre-Covid. :ohhh:

It helps that my company upgraded their office/location so that it's 130 steps from the bus stop (yes I counted), but the commute is chill thanks to more companies offering hybrid, & at the job, there's a lot less people so less small talk/hearing someone shytting in the bathroom :russ:

Lowkey, the office has been so quiet that it feels like I'm WFH w/ better amenities. I'd rather just WFH permanently but if you are getting forced back into the office, I would try it out beforehand, and then look to quit if you ain't feeling it.

I've got the final interview set for next week. They invited me to the company happy hour (in 30 minutes from now), but I can't go to that if I don't have job offer. Not trying to mess things up this late in the game. Also, I got up early this morning and I'm half asleep.

These tech companies' growth targets must've been ridiculous for them to be cutting and freezing hiring the way they are.

Loaded themselves up with cheap debt thinking the tech rally was going to continue forever.

It looks like other sectors were more conservative with their approaches but I guess we'll see in a few months.

Probably a good excuse for a salary reset when things pick up again.
