Any tips on relocating with work? This is huge for me, I am such a home body but an opportunity has arisen for me and I just can’t turn it down.
I’d really appreciate some tips on literally anything that will help relocating easier! It’s about 3 hours from where I am currently.

I am not sure about tips but I guess it becomes easier with time. Who you are currently living with partner, parents, friends or alone? You can visit them during weekends. If it’s partner, you will have to decide how to live together in the long run, either midway for both of you. When I moved away from my parents house for the first time, I was 21 and I cried during my entire flight. Now, I am 35 living alone in a different country. It’s challenging and sometimes lonely but I also love the experience. Just be sure about the opportunity if that’s what you are moving for. Also, home is always the place you can return to if you want. I did during Covid.

I think my tips would all depend on what you’re most concerned about. If you’re worried about being able to meet new people, I always recommend you find some volunteer opportunity or hobby that gets you out of the house and with people with similar interests as you.

One thing at a time. Moving is such an undertaking. Packing, logistics, finding a new place to live, etc. Try to break it up as much as possible and tackle what you can when you can. Congratulations on the opportunity!

I would personally do a massive declutter. It's so much easier to move less stuff pretty much as a universal rule. I've moved a lot in my life and I've learned to only keep the things I love and to rehome the clutter.

Any books/self help materials for someone who is constantly worrying (and waste a lot of unnecessary time)? E.g. No matter if i pass or fail an interview, there is always something to worry about.

Now that I signed the offer and is pending background checks, my anxiety is off the roof as it itches closer to my starting date.

I’m interviewing for a marketing manager role at a company based in SF. I’m genuinely excited about the role and the company but we’ve yet to discuss salary. I expect to be asked at some point, but my research has given me a VERY broad range. So I’m here to do a bit more research. I’ve got 5 very relevant years of experience and will have an associate manager directly reporting to me. Are there any marketers out there who can share their salaries in similar regions and experience levels?

Hello People,

I received a verbal offer letter from
Oracle. I said yes and things moved on. BGV was initiated as well. BUT, Yesterday I received a call from the hiring manager that Oracle is putting hiring freeze, so they are not able to release offer letter as 1 approval was still pending from the VP. He said I will be contacted once freeze is over. Do you think I still have any chances of getting in once the freeze is lifted and how long the freezes are in Oracle ? Oracle
