Hello everyone ,

I have been applying to jobs and have not got an offer yet, I even applied to jobs and went to the final round and ended up getting a rejection email after waiting weeks. All these jobs have 100 + applicants so it's so discouraging. I have great qualifications , I am looking for fully remote positions in IT Audit, Compliance, GRC, Analyst , can anyone give me advice or point me in the right direction

I can certainly relate. The thing I'm noticing when I do occasionally get feedback is that the companies seem to be hiring people that already have their specific domain/industry experience. Given the number of great candidates in the market every final interview I've been rejected from, someone edged me out because they worked at a direct competitor, supplier, etc. Makes it easier for the company to get them up to speed. That certainly narrows target companies, but may increase likelihood of an offer. It's tough out there, hope you find something.

I know exactly what you're feeling. I've been rejected from the final round of interviews so many times and so often. In this year alone (only 8 months in) four times I've been rejected after 2 rounds of months' long interviews, that of course doesn't count all the 3-4 rounds of interviews.

All I can say is, keep trying and believe that you'll get where you need to be eventually.

Sadly I can relate as well OP. I have been on the hunt for a new role for about six months now. Made it to the final round at several companies only to then be rejected. It really sucks and its so discouraging but hang in there OP. Keep applying and networking to get referrals.

My sibling is currently going through opioid withdrawal and my family and I would like her to go to detox.

She would like to detox at home instead, but if she is going to go to rehab, I she needs to spend at least some time in detox.

Should we let her detox at home or is this just asking for trouble? Can provide more details in the comments, but there is a character limit

Should I counter? The offer is $95k for a project manager.
