I’ve always gotten the advice that when you want to switch jobs you should take interviews from places you’re not actually interested in, so you can understand your value in the market and have better negotiating power.

I’m doing that rn - took a couple interviews to gauge my skills, my market value, and see what I need to work on for interviews that I actually care about.

However, I feel really guilty about wasting their time and going all the way knowing I’ll just say no at the end. Wwyd?

My company posted a job opening for a management position for my department and I read the job description… it is literally, line by line, a description of what I do now. I asked what the deal was and was told I should apply and that I’m qualified for the position. Should I be pissed that they didn’t ask me if I was interested in that type of position before they put out a job opening for an external candidate?

A good friend of mine graduated from Parsons this past summer, has degrees in Journalism and French, is a talented photographer and designer (which I feel I have a pretty decent eye for after working at a design-driven branding agency for half a decade).

Any advice for her and/or shops/hiring managers/non-traditional job hunt tips to steer her towards?
