How do you guys handle the RTO mandate talk when the office is clearly dead? I had an in-person interview today and the office was a literal ghost town. They’re insisting on a 4-day RTO policy, but the actual space looked like a post-apocalyptic movie set. Like, why am I being forced to commute to a graveyard just to sit on Zoom calls with the team in India?

Right?! go commute so that you sit on calls all day with background noise, compared to a quiet environment for your calls at home. If I actually had to do a team collaboration in person, it would make sense but I don’t.

Was 4 day in office in the job spec you applied for?

Maybe the policy was just implemented. Did you ask if the other employees have a deadline to RTO?

No mention of RTO for me

The RTO situation can feel frustrating, especially when the office is empty. Focusing on interview prep with real questions on PracHub. might help make the most of your time while job hunting.

I’m struggling. I left an agency I liked last year due to growth limitations and since then I’ve worked at 2 different agencies and can’t seem to find my footing. The first one seemed like a good fit at first but then it turned out to not be the best place for me so I left. At my current agency I feel super undervalued. I’m always raising my hand and offering to help where I can and no matter what I do, I don’t feel utilized or valued or part of the team.It’s really taken a toll on my confidence

Quick question.
I was a contractor for a big company and they just let me know that my last day is December 30th. I got this position thanks to a recruiting company that has been great and gives me benefits.
Should I:
- Continue working with the recruiting company, hoping that they will find another position for me? (as they told me they will, and when they applied me I started working with my current company within 2 weeks)
- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?
