I’m currently on a travelling holiday at the moment which is great, I’m having the best time but I can also still feel the burnout from my previous job- how long does burnout last for you?

Can take a long time. Like weeks not days. You are, amongst other things, slowly catching up on sleep deprivation and long term fatiguing your body. Honestly can can take about as long to recover as it took to burn out. So you need a lifestyle change. Most of all sleep more. Just a lot more. Stop squeezing in extra ‘fun’ things at the evening or weekend because you think a lack of glee is your problem (not saying you do this, but many do) and focus on your caring responsibilities and then sleep.

Yes I really do need to do this, I really need the sleep!

Burnout can take a long time to recover from. It has always taken me months to go from a pretty severe burn to feeling like myself again. My physical health recovers long before my mental health does.

I feel like that! I think after my holiday I may need another break at home to rest 🤣

Burnout lasted several months for me after leaving my last role. I didn't realize how much it was taking a toll on my mental health until I left. I am doing much better now after several months away from the place.

Oh it can be a process, try to focus on the now

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?
