Have you ever refused to host family for personal reason ? I really struggle every time my parents or my sister visit me for more than a day, I feel a lot of stress and pressure from it. My sister wants to move to my place for a job and I don’t want to but I don’t really have a space or money issue, just a mental health one.

Most of the applications we receive are for candidates with much more experience than what is required.

We’re offering competitive pay and great benefits. What gives?

How to negotiate a joining date with the companies? I switched 2 jobs in my career till now. I always had to join the new company after the weekend. It feels like a grind. Companies are insecure in extending the joining date as I might attend more interviews. How to get a week's time in between jobs?Even if I negotiate the last working day with my current company, the new employer expects me to join as soon as I'm relieved. They would ask for the relieving letter so couldn't lie about the LWD.

How do you start an agency to crush your successful-no-talent-hack rivals with no clients?

How do you explain those parts of your projects where you made decisions based on intuition and not necessarily some quotable textbook methodology?

I’m a rather ‘organic’ UXer who is often able to achieve impressive results just by following what makes sense to me instinctually.

Oftentimes I might unintentionally mimic the same steps as some methodology because it’s just what comes naturally to me.

How do you talk about this?!?

Would you buy a $650k house on a $185k gross a year income? We could scrap together about a $100k down payment. A lot more than I want to spend now (although wife and I though we might buy a house like that in 4-5 years assuming we both continued to advance in our careers), but our perfect home just listed. It’s very unique and checks basically every one of our boxes.
