Wow okay no first off, congratufuckinlations ignore these guys getting a job at all during these times should be celebrated.

Enjoy making friends with your coworkers, learning about your role and starting the grind. It’s part of life.

My advice: set boundaries early and prioritize your physically and emotional health from the beginning so you don’t become the negative Nancys above.

Congrats on your new job!

Congrats on your job! I’m 2020 too and started in mid August. What’s been serving me extremely well is continuously asking questions - not to get the answer, but to better understand context of engagements and my given tasks. It’s allowed me to both learn a lot in such a short time and actually get my shit done

uplifting

Thanks man & all the best to you as well!

IT consulting in the Fed space is recession proof. Also one of the few areas you dont have to wonder about off shoring teams eating your lunch because of clearance etc

I meant fighting off competition from the companies that will lower costs by sending the work overseas. Fed work is regulated and cannot be performed outside the country generally. So that way your job is more secure than commerical.

I had my first interview today for a director position I would consider a dream role, and it went well. They want me to talk to the VP, but I found out I would definitely have to relocate to a different state to execute tasks.

The salary is within range of what I would accept, but I just moved to a different state.

I want to leverage this, and follow up with the hiring with another place (similar position in my current city and state) I haven’t heard from yet. Do you think that’s wise to do?
