I just started a new job a couple days ago but I am already thinking about pursuing other opportunities and have a zoom call with a recruiter and someone from the client company. They office has soundproof booths for phone calls. Should I take the call there or look for somewhere else to take the call (which may be noisy)?

I definitely wouldn’t take an interview for another job when I was at work. If someone finds out, you could be fired on the spot.

Can you book an office by the hour somewhere?

Take the call. Nobody cares.

LOL 🤣

Do not take the call at work no matter what. Even if that means rescheduling for a time where you can talk in private. An experienced recruiter should be used to others being in the similar situations.

Perhaps ask to come in late one morning or leave early one afternoon for personal reasons and do the call at your house

What happened is that I panicked and took the first job offered to me that was at my salary target. Then immediately after I accepted the job I started getting messages from recruiters for jobs that were more attractive. Now what I've started the job I'm in a quandary but mostly because I'm still in onboarding. In a week or two this won't be an issue because i could work from home...

Hi all -
Sorry for the long rant, but could use advice or just encouragement.

Got laid off for the first time in my career 3 weeks ago. I have 10 years of PM experience (mostly ecommerce & experimentation). I was fortunate in the past to have had recruiters scout me directly so this is the first time in over a decade that I am applying to everything that I’m qualified for, mostly qualified for, and way over qualified for with zero leads. Only 3 interviews thus far that didn’t go forward.
