Finally made it to the final panel interview at a company I applied to in December. The hiring manager loves my background and feels I'm the perfect fit for the job. Just need to sit for an hour on zoom in front of 5 executives next Tuesday, and I'm getting nervous. I already sent connection requests to them in LI and no response, I just need to calm myself. I desperately want this job and this company!

Good luck! I would also feel nervous. The worst that can happen is they don't hire you. So fuck it...and just do your best. Seems like they have a long process...kind of annoying.

You’ll do great! Remember, you’ve already made it this far- you wouldn’t be there if you were qualified. Practices some test questions to ease your mind and find some relaxing techniques that work for you. I like breathing in a square to calm my nerves, where you inhale for 4 counts, hold for 4 counts, exhale for 4, and hold for 4. Good luck!

Hi guys,
Need help,I am joining
VMware Banglore on 27th June. During interview I told them I need wfh. They said it wil be wfh this entire year. Only mistake I did was i didn't permanent wfh. I took for granted like once I join i can opt for it ( as my VMware friends had said we can opt for it)
Now the offices have started, I am scared if they call me to office , I have 14months son, not willing to leave him n go for office.

So if I ask manager to give me permanent wfh will they agree ?

I have not been on a project for over 3 months. Since I joined, I have been put in training. The training got extended by a month and now it's close to 4 months since I joined and without a project.

What should I do? People say that I'm lucky to get paid without doing any work, but it is stressing me out. I need the experience. The uncertainty is freaking me out, with rumours of layoffs and the certification program and all.
