Have you ever been interviewing with a company and then several interviews in, you see another role at the same company that was just posted that might also be a good fit?

Would you apply? Ask the recruiter you’ve been talking with? Or not say anything at all because it looks desperate?

I’m Have been an RN for three years. I have worked in the prison system for over two years. I recently applied and was offered a job in the ICU/CCU. Which I would love to try this new adventure. I like to look at pros and cons. Pros of the Prison my boss recognizes my hard work, I have great pay, and a great schedule. Cons-there is at times unequal distribution of duties, some bad attitudes with some of the staff. PPE is not always easy access, who knows who. What’s your thoughts?

Thinking about going independent and operating out of my home office. Does anyone have any thoughts to share about that? I’m wondering about clients coming to my home and FINRA issues.

If you don’t have 8 hours of billable time a day, do you leave as is or do you fill in the gap with non-billable work? While I am in the office, I don’t always get the billable amount since I don’t have enough work. Seems like a waste of time to enter non-billable time just to fill in the gap but I also don’t want them to think I am not there and slacking off.

What’s the norm?

Having one of those days where little errors are creeping into things. E.g. addressed comments from a client and when sending to the partner for review later, forgot to flag that I didn’t address one of the comments because it was directed to him. He wasn’t happy I didn’t mention the comment in my email with the draft which, also mad at myself for not doing, although I expected him to read the draft and he did. Any tips for slowing down when you’re jumping between 10 matters in a day?
