After 2 years of a pandemic and working independently for many years, I am not feeling interviews AT ALL. There are points in the interview where I want to just say "Look! Either hire me or don't".

How can I get over this feeling? I'm over the whole "stand in the line of fire to prove how good I am" bs. Any recommendations for getting over this or possible industries to pivot into to avoid bs interview processes and ghosting?

I’m about to sign my offer letter with a startup. Does anyone know any startup layers that can do a Pro Bono and look over my offer letter. I’m illiterate when it comes down to legal term sheets/offer letters. Really appreciate it!!

Just founded a startup, but been coasting at FAANG. I want to challenge myself to do more (maybe chase promotion or take more responsibility), but I’m afraid it will take away from my ability to spend time working on the startup if I stop coasting. I’ve never been a coaster and it’s hard for me to just be an “average” employee, but feel it’s the right thing to do so I can focus on the startup which is my ultimate goal. Anyone have advice?

When is it worth it to take a pay cut? Received an offer from a startup today, the salary they are offering me is 30% below my current salary - offered them my range during the interview but they stuck to their initial salary when they sent me the offer. No 401k, no WFH, but they have unlimited PTO. They are also offering me 10k shares of common stock (25% vested 1 year after the date vesting begins and the remaining on a monthly basis over the next 3 years). How does this translate to $ amount?

Hi all, I am looking to get some recommendations on acquiring funding (pre-seed and seed level) We have a solid product and platform for users (ecommerce marketplace) but we now need more funding for advertising/marketing. Interested to hear how others have acquired funding in the past. Thanks!

My boss just gave their notice (3rd boss in 2 months) and told me to get a new job based on “mud within the executive level” of the organization (~5 years, 2 rebrands, etc). I’ve been there for 18 months. Looking at the recession expected to hit Canada in early 2023, I feel stuck; hiring is slow everywhere but jumping ship now means I’ll be the “last in the door” at most places. How would you navigate this? The decision will be made either way, but ideally I could move into something better.
