Hii Guys, Could anyone give me some clarity on the below point. I have cleared 2nd round of technical interview at Deloitte, but my candidature is still showing as interview in progress at Deloitte careers page. I had a discussion with HR on this and she told me that next process is pending from management side. It's been almost 10 days since from 2 nd round of interview. How much more time does it gonna take, any idea? Or is it normal. Please help me with this 🙏🙏 .Deloitte

Do you feel your life is empty or your career is empty?
No career (but especially not advertising) will fill a void.
No I have a wife and kids who I love, but I debate moving to New York or getting a hobby farm and working small time
I’ve felt more fulfilled when my paycheck allows me to not worry about my bills, grocery trips, and planning for my future. It’s a cold, cash hungry world out there.

Not everyone is fulfilled by career achievements. I'm turning 58 and for the longest time I strive for it, thinking I could unlock satisfaction - money/pay; title; working on high profile projects for big brands (I work in UX, a lot of digital agency years). Lots of work travel in the pursuit of it. But in hindsight, none of it was fulfilling in any meaningful way. Couple of years ago I also realized I was an alcoholic and got into AA. Great decision, but I'm very much at a crossroads re: where to seek and find fulfillment. But I know now it won't come from career. Wished I had understood and grappled with this earlier in my life, but glad I've at least arrived here at this point. If nothing else gives me time to figure out what retirement can/should look like, in 4 or 5 years.
I don’t think you are going to find it in a career - I know I haven’t. I work to live not live to work. I have no ambition anymore to be anything other than an individual contributor. I want to work my hours and leave.
I’m not sure about career achievements, but a really good lunch break brings me happiness.
