I’m on my last interview at two different agencies. One recruiter is from internal and the other one is from the external recruiter who hooked me to this agency.
She’s really really nice and asked me when would be my ideal start date. Should I give heads up to her that I’m also on the last step at the other agency?(I’m likely going to the other agency but don’t want to ruin a relationship with her)

Do you feel confident that you’ll get an offer from both agencies? If so, yeah I’d recommend giving the external recruiter a heads up. It may prompt her to let the agency know, which could end up in your favor with a higher offer, etc if they know you are in talks with someone else. if nothing else, it’ll be good you gave her a heads up so you can keep a good relationship for the future.

i did this and it was definitely the right call. recruiters know better than anyone how competitive the job market is right now and i don’t like blindsiding them if i think they could be a solid contact in the future.

I understand this may be a big ask, and I'm happy to interview again if need be.

Started a new job 7 months ago. There’s been a hiring freeze and it seems they canned the recruitment team. Things seems to be slowing down drastically in the span of a week.

Also, would me making my exit to another role that I might leave in a 8 months bite me in the ass down the line? Do I just grab anything in the interim?

I have been giving interview from last 2 months and yet I haven't got a single offer and people here are getting multiple offers. Even if interview goes nice, I would get rejection mail.

I guess Luck matters a lot even if you perform well. There would be always someone who will do better than you.

I am getting demotivated, but have to continue trying hard.

I really wish luck could be on my side.

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?
