Makes sense, I find my energy depletes after work and I wouldn’t be as energetic for the interviews on my end. Had this with a 4pm interview once and I was not on my A game at that hour

Stop worrying about your day job as much if you’re already one foot out the door. I learned to start slacking a bit and spend that time on applications and interview prep. Your heart has to be in it to exit

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. I had 10 slots to choose from. I took the first slot available. Three were one day earlier this week and the rest are next week. Does it look good (or desperate, lol) on my part that I took the first time or should I have waited until next week so that I would be fresher on their minds when choosing a candidate? Also, do interviewers still appreciate a handwritten note after an interview?

2 - will there be issues with joint ownership (title) if the mortgage does not include us both?
3 - any other risk/benefit
