I work in Corporate Finance, my company recently got bought out. No assurance literally no communication other than business as usual. I realized my title also changed from specific to very vaque of just analyst and I dont belong to any department. There only about 30% in my dept that has this title change. I asked my boss, but he is very unresponsive. We are in the middle of big project the plan will carry on to end of 2024. Should I start looking for a new job? Be worried?

That’s not abnormal. Hard to know if you’re at risk, but finance is usually considered expendable if it’s a strategic acquirer and cost efficiencies are part of the thesis. But hard to give you any guidance without more context

Appreciate your thoughts! I wish I have more to share than what I know currently.

5+ years of full-time job as developer and still waiting to reverse a LinkedList at work.

Since there is a heavy impetus on solving Tree, LinkedList, and Graph problems for tech interviews, it can naturally make freshers believe that these concepts will be used in day-to-day life at work. In reality, most of these DSA concepts are already implemented in some libraries our code uses and we rarely have to code such Algorithms by hand.

I’ve had radio silence from a small investment bank for about a week now. I’ve completed several rounds of interviews, but last Thursday the firm reposted the job I’ve been interviewing for. On Friday the headhunter said that they’re not sourcing new candidates and it’s probably just LinkedIn automatically refreshing the listing. She said they had a busy week last week but will make a final decision this week - is the delay and radio silence a bad sign or is this typical for experienced hiring?
