Thank you! I'd hate for them to lose interest in me, but I'd also hate to leave a month before my app releases as I am a critical part.

Fingers crossed they're still interested.

Not ready to "actually" join few more months? I'd like to wrap up my current project as we are close to release.

I mean... maybe even 1 month. But definitely not before then.

Do companies appreciate that and see that as a sign that you wouldn't screw them over either? (Able to finish my work and not bail out).

I'm attending a networking event and the invite asked if I'm interested in applying, and if so - when.

The only options were: Now, 3 months, 6months, 12 months. I put 3 months as 1 month wasn't an option.

Is there any advantage to telling a company you are interested in working for in the future where you decided to accept an offer from? Or does it not matter? I accepted an offer a week ago with a great company (Company A) that for this season in my life seems like a great fit and only strengthens what I have to offer company B down the road. Company B just sent me a request for interview and I want to keep the door open with Company B but they were just very late in extending an interview.

I’ve been working for a company for 25yrs, looking for advancement. I’m considered an SME, managing people, Vendors and working on large system conversions. Have provided long term goals. When requesting feedback I’m told I’m on the right path, no suggestions on what to improve. I asked about timelines for advancement and not being given anything concrete. Recently interviewed with another company as a Vendor Mgmt partner. Individual contributor, high visible position with potential. Thoughts?

I applied for two positions at a district court that say ‘open until filled’. I’m going on a cruise in a few weeks and don’t want to miss hearing from HR.
The posting says due to the high number of applicants do not follow up, you will be contacted if chosen for an interview.
How much will it hurt me to email and explain that I will be unavailable from 9/5 to 9/16 but I am extremely interested and don’t want to miss hearing from them if I have a chance for the position?

It does have potential for a great case and I’d love to have it in my portfolio, but is it reasonable for them not to compensate me? Any tips on how to approach this?
