Thinking of extending express resume critique services to people on here for a discounted price for a limited time. I see a lot of people need help with the job search and as someone who does it fully I want to help out but I know not everyone can afford the normal resume prices.

For those that have a full time job and a side startup. How do you manage doing both? I’m in pre-seed stages (<10 employees), and I’ve tried doing separate hours for one and the other. But that is causing slow response times to clients, and causing issues for burnout of the team. I’ve been told separate hours is the best way to make sure that you don’t get slapped with co-working, but is there effective strategies to make startup life more livable? 😩😫
