Does anyone else question whether they are aiming at the right roles? I keep applying to positions that match my experience, but none of them actually excite me. It feels like I am optimizing for employability rather than fit.

I’m in a similar situation. I’m applying for jobs I know I can do and have experience for. But I’m tired of doing them. However, I doubt anyone’s going to hire me for something I don’t have experience in so I’m stuck.

I think about this a lot because it feels like I have too much experience for some jobs and not enough for other jobs. And nothing really feels like it's anything that I want to do, lol. Sometimes I wonder if I got into the wrong industry in general.

I have an offer to do some consulting for a company based out of the UK (I am in the US). The job would not go through a consulting company but would be directly with the company.

What you should do when dealing with a very toxic worker that keep on sending passive aggressive messages to you as well as in group chat and email.
Things like when you answer his question he respond: I know that
Or when he keeps on saying my change requests were just minor in group meeting but actually not.
And keep on saying how hard he works when he clearly wasn’t and already underperformed compared to an intern level.

How to not let this toxic co-worker not poison me any further?
