How do you cope with job hunting while working full time? I’m always exhausted after work/weekends and don’t really have a bandwidth to deal with anything that needs thinking/presentation rounds. Seriously thinking about quitting my current role to focus on job hunting atm!

If the why is powerful, the how is easy. If you want a new role/job/situation you just have to put in the hard work. Nobody will provide you with any ‘secret sauce’ methods nor will they save you. The responsibility is on you to got though the motions and achieve what you want. Good luck!

Wise words, thank you!

My husband has been unemployed for over a year. We can’t afford medicine. Do not quit a job unless you have enough savings to survive for a year AT LEAST.

I am so sorry! I didn’t realize you are lucky enough to live in the UK! I don’t know why this popped up in my suggestions!!

What do I do with a defunct company stock that still sporadically has trading volume? For reference, it went permanently out of business I. 2016 (chapter 6) but the stock still trades occasionally. Do I need to sell so I can claim the loss or will it just automatically go to 0 at some point? I would have expected it to happen eventually but it still has value (about 2 bucks for 200 shares lol)

Hi all,
Been doing privacy for about a year now in-house. Got my CIPP/US.
Having major imposter syndrome still. I feel like the minute I finally have a grasp, something changes. The law and nuances just seem overwhelming. Maybe it’s just a lack of guidance/uniformity in the US. I’m not sure if I feel this way because it is simply the nature of the work or because I’m just not capable.
😔

Increasing CTCs in india is the single greatest hindrance from becoming a 5trillion economy. Opportunity cost to leave the job and start something of your own is widening. Further are these salaries even sustainable. Revenue of companies hasn't kept pace with compensation increase in india and it's a bubble which is soon going to burst. I'd think twice before accepting the offer in excess of 50% hike
