Are you seeing more companies open to international candidates for hybrid or fully remote roles? I keep hearing that the talent shortage is pushing agencies to look abroad, but I wonder how that actually plays out in hiring decisions on your end.

Yes, I'm seeinfg a huge shift in this reagrd. Recruiters now care more about timezone overlap and cultural fit than location. Ff you have the skills and strong communication habits, borders matter less than they used to.

Always keen for this kind of work as a dual citizen

HCL Technologies offer being delayed and recruiter keeps saying that there's a problem with their "Offer release portal system."

It's already coming up soon and I don't have the official offer so that I can confidently start the relocation process. Has anyone else recently dealt with this?

Took my first ever sick day today on account of my very poor and worsening mental health. Just could not bring myself to put in another 14 hour day with back to back meetings and constant activity.

For those also going through this, any tips on how you manage yourself day to day? What self talk tends to help?

I’m reviewing my resume getting ready to start my job search and have a question for recruiters, hiring managers. I’m looking for a role brand-side not agency side. Specialist roles aside, such as digital, when you see someone describing themselves as a “generalist marketer” is this a resume you’d pass on? My past roles have been such that I do a lot of marketing projects, tasks etc. but I’m not a specialist. I’m worried if I use this terminology I won’t even be considered for a role. Thank you

I’ve noticed that HR, when explaining why a candidate didn’t get the job, tend to lean on “You’re great, but we had candidates with more experience in [skill relevant to the job].” I do believe this is true in some cases, but it can’t possibly be for all of them.

HR folks — what feedback have you obscured by offering that line instead?
