I hear ya but you can play the “it’s never a good time” game your entire life and not end up taking any risks or making any changes. I know because I told myself that for many years. It was not a time time to go back to school, it wasn’t a good time to get married, it wasn’t a good time to change jobs, and the list went on. If it’s the right opportunity for you, go for it. It’s rarely ever a perfect time to do anything.

So are the layoffs at Deloitte over ?

I’m currently at a medium sized tech startup. I was interviewing for a role that would be a bump in pay and title at a multinational public F50 company. At first, the hiring manager and head of legal were very complementary about my experience. Almost too much so. After a week of interviews with the team (softball-esq), I was informed that if I wanted to join, they would bring me on at a lower title. I’m not sure about comp yet. But if comp is still an increase + experience at a public..

I’m on a 6-month extendable contract and my manager really likes me; she always says that they want to convert me ASAP, however they don’t have the budget right now to hire me. They plan to hire me by the end of the year (7-month mark) but that means I won’t get paid for 3 days during thanksgiving and a whole week during December. How can I push for them to make me permanent as soon as possible? This is my first job out of college so I’m not sure how to approach this situation.
