Hi everyone, I’m Lorena. I was diagnosed with cancer in December and I’m still in treatment, though thankfully in remission. I’m starting to feel ready to look for work again, ideally something remote.

My previous employer replaced me after my diagnosis and never paid my last month’s wage. I’m letting that chapter go so I can focus on my health and moving forward.

If anyone has suggestions for remote roles or where to start, I’d really appreciate it. Thank you for having me.

Hi Lorena! I’m glad you are in remission and I wish you all the best with the remainder of your treatment!

YOE - 6 in Android development. I got an offer from MakeMyTrip Bengaluru 22L fixed + 2L joining bonus. I'm from hyderabad. MMT has hybrid work model and wants me to relocate so that I could appear in office twice in a week. They denied full remote opportunity. Given that some companies are providing full remote opportunities, is it still worth it to relocate for a job/career? I live in a rented flat in hyderabad which I need to vacate and find a new place in a new city bengaluru.

At my last agency those conversations were always led by people of color from every level.
