Hi all! I was wondering if you can share your experience balancing work and interview prep at the same time? Work has been super demanding and I’m trying to prep for interviews, but I have no time except for the weekends (even then my time is extremely limited because I don’t want to completely ignore my loved ones, and I try to catch up on some sleep here and there).

If you are sure you want to leave, it’s all about prioritization. Don’t leave your team in the lurch, but don’t work late or if you must work late then take time during day for interview prep. If you work 40 hrs, they can complain, but they won’t have reason to fire you, at least immediately.
