Hi Everyone, I am trying to apply for a Technical Support role at Dropbox I’m entering all the required fields but there seems to be an issue, when I hit submit after filling the form, it doesn’t submit and throws error ‘Looks like you left this blank! Please fill out this required field’ when all the fields are entered already (I have checked so many times, and filled the form from scratch several times too). Anyone from Dropbox who can put me in touch with HR or suggest what I should do next?

This is always something easier to establish at the beginning of your time at a company. I let too many unpaid extra hours happen at a previous role.
Establish that you get your work done within your working hours early.
If there’s a non negotiable, like kid pickup time or taking care of a family member, ask your manager what will be acceptable.
It’s harder when you are salary cause hours aren’t tracked. But sometimes that benefits you and take your time when you need it.

It is a balance for sure
If you’re salaried unfortunately overtime is expected and is ALSO exempt from overtime pay. Hourly jobs will do everything possible to prevent having to pay overtime so they’ll cut hours or tell you to hard stop. I work as a software engineer salaried. I have 100s of unpaid overtime that I’ve clocked and not a single cent has been paid to me. It’s just the regulations that screw us over cus I’ve looked into it myself.
