I literally hate how unprofessional some recruiters are, got an offer at a hedge fund and the recruiter is saying that I topped their budget which is 10k under my bare minimum range, like why the fuck would i interview with you then if you can’t “afford” me. Also, it’s very frustrating to not hearing anything from other recruiters that leave me hanging with 0 updates on the status. Just be fucking honest and you wouldn’t have such understaffed departments.

Update, rejected the job offer. Prospective employer refused to make either of my accommodations. So even though they listed the job in nyc, only placing in Connecticut and they wasted my time by not being able to afford my bare salary expectations.

So the recruiter just quietly removed “in consideration” to blank. So god damn unprofessional to not notify me that they aren’t interested in me when I have a pending offer.

Its been crazy lately. They are ghosting like crazy and it drives me nuts. What happened to being professional?

Turns out, the recruiters boss reached out to me earlier this week to give me an update on the timeline, my guess is the junior had no idea what to do.

I interviewed at KPMG on 11/14 and got a verbal offer the next day but since then waiting to hear from them. Been following up continuously but the partners are not replying it seems. In the meanwhile i have an offer from BT offering 90k for 4 yrs of experience which seems to be fair. I am just unsure whether to accept the offer as I was waiting for kpmg reply as I want B4 on my resume which apparently is a big deal. Is BT also good on resume for future employers ??

I started interviewing early Oct with a company that reached out via recruiter. The hiring manager was very straight forward with me that I was his top candidate and I was told all other interviews were very positive incl CMO. The recruiter said they'd be making an offer but it's now been three weeks. Anyone else had the process drag on like this? Meanwhile I'm taking other interviews and was offered a promotion at current company, but was very interested in this one. What would you do?

2. What is their general outlook on parental leave? In the 2nd round I basically told them that I am pregnant and willgo on mat leave in March. I wonder if I will be dismissed just because of this or I still have a chance...

Any thoughts?

I’m not bad with money but definitely lots of room to improve overall, due to several personal factors I don’t want to list in full here (numerous unanticipated medical bills, bad boyfriends, etc.) Hence why I only have $3k in savings right now. My first mini goal is to have $5k saved by the end of December. I need motivation and words of encouragement. If I pay off my medical bills, I won’t make my goal. I have to start putting saving money first. Getting depressed about my situation.

Cue pandemic joblessness... if married filing separately, would you say it’s a good idea to start a Roth while under the income limit, even in this climate? Any reason not to?
