Had a few final interviews that failed to convert to offer. Some of them might be fit some of them I knew I fucked up. The worst part, I didn’t feel anxious before the final rounds as I used to do but still made bad judgment calls during the interviews. Feel very lost. Please help

First off, im sorry and that sucks. Second, Highly suggest you take some time (hours, days, weeks, whatever you can) to disengage from job hunt (watch a movie, hang w friends, do a hobby, volunteer - try to do stuff that gives you joy and pride in a non-career setting). Then, start back by doing a few practice interviews (either with friends or for jobs you care lesss about). Youll slowly get some wins under your belt and start gaining confidence back

Good luck!

I would reflect on what were the bad judgment calls, why did you make it, what factors do you think cause you to make it (could be both external and internal and even if you are not nervous our brains do weird things for different reasons), almost psychoanalyze yourself, then think about what could you have done in those situations differently to catch the tendency to make those bad judgment calls early and improve them, and talk to 1-2 friends who are good at interviews and tell them about the specific problem and ask them to do mocks with you that only focus on simulating those kinds of questions, interactions, or scenarios. This has nothing to do you with your ability and sound more like a mental/psychological challenge, which is normal and we all have those kinds of hiccups.

Does that mean approval by business if yet to be done but extended by HR or something else ?

There’s been some turnover over the last six months at my firm, and I have taken over more files. I’m having a hard time getting ahead of briefing schedules and have been asking for extensions on a lot of recent briefs. In my practice area it’s never really an issue or objected to. However, I feel guilty that this is still happening. Any tips for getting over this?

Any thoughts on the best certifications to get in order to help move forward? I have considered the CCP from World at Work, but it’s fairly pricey to get by the time you wrap up everything.

I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.
