I know it’s common for candidates to interview elsewhere to get leverage for a counteroffer, and I don’t take it personally, but I do wonder—does this happen more in certain industries or roles? And for those who’ve experienced this, do you have any ways to tell early on if a candidate might be doing this?

They’re interviewing whenever and wherever possible because the job market sucks. It’s a numbers game, the more you interview, the better your chances to get ONE offer.

true this market is tough

…You can ask them?

I could but I was curious if there are other signs that are less direct

I personally don’t do this. If I’m applying to jobs elsewhere I’m 100% leaving if I get a good offer. Statistics show that accepting a counter offer from your current company is almost always a bad idea.

Same mentality here

Hi all,

I am an IT professional having almost 5 years of experience and want to move to Canada for PR. My CRS score is not upto the cut off. I need someone who can help in earning connections points for Manitoba PNP program.

As it allows having an acquaintance or a friend to earn those 20 points, it can help my PR application.

Anyone who is PR and resident of Manitoba can dm me to discuss around it. I am ready to pay for this assistance as well.

Hey guys! Can we leave a company within 2 weeks of joining?

I have a para/assistant teacher that just wants to argue over everything. “You’re the teacher, why do I have to assess the children during break out rooms?” We have 8 kids, and I am only asking her to do 3! The other para is doing 3 and I and doing 2 with IEPs!!! How am I supposed to handle this in a professional manner virtually? Plus she is frustrated b/c o can’t explain everything. I keep telling her it’s all new to me too. Grace is not a word in her vocab. And I am feeling graceless.

Would anyone recommend or share a side hustle that would complement a banker’s 8-5 M-F schedule? As of now, I do an hour DoorDash before work and after work I do DoorDash and Instacart for a couple hours. I do this as well on the weekends targeting about $200-300 a week since I am in a really small market. Looking for more creative, cost effective, and efficient ways I can supplement my average salary. TIA!
