Looking. 1,157 applications in 9 months. Just burned through my savings and had to call in to remove a repo request on my car. But the last month as been (finally) an avalanche of interest. 13 interviews in the last 4 weeks, including a 5th interview with one company and two 4th interviews with 2 others. Getting close to potentially have 3 offers in the next 1-2 weeks, all with base pay in the 200-250k range. It has been an emotional rollercoaster to say the least.

I'd like to find another job but this current job market doesn't seem very promising. So for now I'm content to hold on to the job I've got. Maybe I'll feel more ambitious in the spring or summer and I'll get more serious about looking.

I'm looking due to multiple reasons and it's rough.

I am grateful for any job I have. I proud of the work that I do. I have been gainfully employed, unemployed, under employed all in the last 365 days. No matter what your status is ALWAYS look for the next job. You will know what you are worth, you will know what jobs require your skills (hard and soft), keep you updating your resume, keep you interview ready. And you can stay at the place you or leave it after considering your current situation. Risk versus reward. I am going to always be on these boards looking. A weekly practice.

Fill in the blanks. I had a stroke writing that. LOL.

So I used to work for a company where my job was good, was a director of business solutions for a fashion brand. Only issue was that the CFO micromanaged and ended up leaving. My background is digital transformation however I took an infrastructure position to rebuild a provincial healthcare system. I always lacked the hardware side and thought this was a good move but I feel like I’m losing my digital skills and don’t enjoy the work. I’m in it for 7 months now.
