After many rounds of interviews, I got a note from HR that I have been selected and they are working on drafting the offer letter. In the meantime, the hiring manager has requested a discussion to align and set expectation. What should I cover during this discussion and also I want to see if they are flexible in location. Shall I bring this up now or wait for the formal offer letter to come in

Here is a suggestion, "Thank you so much for the update, and I'm thrilled about the opportunity to join the team. I'm looking forward to the discussion with the hiring manager to align and set expectations. In preparation for our conversation, I'd like to cover a few key points:

Role Expectations:

Clarification on the day-to-day responsibilities and key deliverables.
Insight into the team dynamics and collaboration expectations.
Goals and Objectives:

Understanding the short-term and long-term goals for the position.
Any key performance indicators or milestones I should be aware of.
Onboarding Process:

Information about the onboarding process and any materials I can review beforehand.
Key contacts or resources to help me integrate smoothly into the team.
Regarding the location, I believe it's a valid point to discuss during our conversation. You might consider saying something like:
"I'm very excited about the opportunity and wanted to discuss the possibility of flexibility in the location. I understand the team's primary location is [mention location], and I'm curious if there's room for flexibility or if the company has remote work policies in place. I believe this clarity would help me make informed decisions as we proceed."

This way, you express your interest and seek information without making it a condition. It's usually beneficial to address such matters early in the process to ensure alignment between your expectations and the company's policies."

Hey Fishes. I wanted to understand one thing.

When you apply for any opportunity, how well versed should you be with all the things mentioned in a JD, like certification, experience, some tools and technology, coding language. Do you see a 100% fit before you apply or go for the opportunity if you see the responsibilities meeting your expectation and know only like 60% of the expected or desired skills.

Have you been selected if in case you applied knowing you meet less criterias?

First off - thanks for any help!

After doing freelance for the last two years, I’ve decided to go back to the corporate world. I’ve been applying a ton of places but keep getting turned down immediately - not even a first interview and I can’t figure out why.

I feel like I have a lot of good accolades as far as awards, a graduate certificate program board I’m on, really good stats from my previous work, etc.

I have 7 years experience. Are people looking for someone w/ less experience/cheaper?
