Tons of bars and restaurants near Grove Street. Porta is fun. If you are thinking of accommodations try the Westin or residence inn. If you like fitness and stuff the gym below residence inn is beautiful. You can always go for a run along the water or feast on Indian food in Journal Square - honest and eggomania for completely unhealthy but delicious food. Personally find the food in Hoboken a lot more diverse. You can always hop over to NYC if you run out of things to do.

I got an offer from firm 1 before the memorial holiday and have been stalling because I am waiting for an offer from firm 2..
I was working with a partner from firm 2 who got me an interview with the managing partner.. I got a verbal offer last week.. the staff told me they are processing the paperwork.
Should I still wait for firm 2? I feel like I can’t stall anymore.. I feel like I really should give firm 1 a response this week 😮‍💨 but I don’t want to lose both offers

A recruiter contacted me about a solution architect position. I looked at their requirements and I may not be qualified for the role since I only have 1.5 years technical experience. However , it’s an exciting role, salary is almost double my current one, and it’s fully remote. It’s less likely I would get the role but any thoughts how I should respond to the email?
