Considering a Product Owner role. Any best practices of what questions to ask during an interview? First phase deals with a virtual Teams interview with the recruiter and her manager on Tuesday. Excited since this is a hop from a Product Analyst role and entails an offer of over $30,000 from what I'm getting now! This would be a permanent full-time compared to my current contractor role that ends in March.

I would ask how many teams you will be in charge of and what work-life balance is like, as PO can be a demanding role. Good luck!

My contract role ends end-of-year. It was mutually decided that I didn't want to continue. I have this interview tomorrow for this new role, do you think I should go ahead and tell them tomorrow when my last day is?

I had a feeling cause since I started the team started decoupling and so many unstable changes and no processes in place. The person I had interviewed with went to a different department a few weeks later. Also started really realizing I knew they never intended to extend any contract when they expected us to document all our processes.

Wow. Interesting. The recruiter emailed me 5 mins before the video interview and claimed the client decided they changed their mind and now wanted someone on-site instead of remote now. Do you think it was bogus that she just wanted my resume?

Random, but valid/persistent thought.

After 2 years of a pandemic and working independently for many years, I am not feeling interviews AT ALL. There are points in the interview where I want to just say "Look! Either hire me or don't".

How can I get over this feeling? I'm over the whole "stand in the line of fire to prove how good I am" bs. Any recommendations for getting over this or possible industries to pivot into to avoid bs interview processes and ghosting?

- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?
