I did everything on my work computer - including resumes, apps, interviews, offer letter sign lol. No issues

Hmm no chance of getting caught I guess lol

Not ideal, but many do the same. It is better to keep your work and personal life (including job searches) separate.

No need to worry at all lol

I’d say your chances of “getting caught” are super slim but if it makes you nervous, recommend iPad + Bluetooth keyboard as less expensive option (vs new laptop)! Think my iPad was like $300

As an alternative, you can use your phone to do zoom interviews. Just download the app it’s all very easy.

Thanks for the tip though

It is fine - good luck, OP!

Did everything on my work laptop.

Friends, need some feedback on an idea:

I’m thinking of starting a podcast interviewing leaders at startups about their experience with specific challenges - I know, cliche, get a more original hobby, etc.

Not looking for the narrative arc of How I Built This or Masters of Scale. Instead, looking to uncover specific problems faced by companies that tried something new for the first time. What did they not see coming, how did they adapt and measure, etc.

What are your thoughts on this format?

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise.
