I know a lot of people are frustrated with job search, but I want everyone to know that things can turn around for you so don't give up. After months of watching videos recruiters post on interview and negotiation tips, reading posts on this site and articles on interview strategies, well as my own research, I landed a job with a 62% increase in pay (50k more), signing bonus, one extra week of vacation and a position is fully remote. There is hope!

Congratulations 🎊

That’s great to hear, 😃 especially during these times when you hear a lot of stories where people get laid-off, and either cannot find a job at all, or are forced to take a job at lower pay.
Congratulations.
Enjoy it, and make sure to save some of that extra money for the unexpected things in your life.

Hi All, looking for referral for Plsql with 6 years experience. Please let me know if anyone can help

Right so here’s a bit of a dilemma I work to a much higher standard at home and it’s this high standard that means I’m in line for a promotion. I’ve grown so much and I feel really strong in my role I’m also busier than ever. The problem is we’re going back into the office and I don’t want to go in if it’s just going to be senior management in asking me to get them lunches for client meetings or fetch a glass of water and cutlery for meeting rooms. Definitely not ready to go back to that….

Recently left the Big4 without a job lined up. I’m hearing all my friends talking about busy season woes and I’m so grateful to not be in that position. I keep thinking of the long hours and it’s making me not want to job hunt. I’ve been looking at industry related tax roles, and generally like accounting but am open to exploration. Is there any such role that gives good comp, great work/life balance (I don’t even wanna be near 60 hours), and overall interesting role/company?

Anyone hiring those who have been out of work for a year? I took time off to tend to personal matters, but I am now looking to get back into the workforce again. My previous experience includes time at B4 audit up to senior level and then transitioned to manager in industry. Senior/manager roles are preferred.

I don’t mind audit. However, I’d prefer it not to be at a B4, as I am looking for some semblance of a work life balance.

DM me if you have something above, thanks.
