Yes. That’s the best way to do it in my opinion.

Yes. I think most companies can sue you for conflict of interest. Better to stick with different industries

I wouldn’t be able to switch my brain like that so no

Yes. Financial Services for J1 and Higher Ed for J2.

Doing similar work for both companies, so techno speaking it’s the same “job” just different clients.

Much context switching, getting a bit tired. Thinking of switching to a new J1 and taking a breather from J2. So many opportunities open up when you’re not petrified of losing J1.

Yes! Always work in different industries. It makes avoiding legal trouble so much easier.

The first rule of overemployment is dont talk about overemployment to anyone outside your house. :). Second: always protect the main job. Third: As the main job always has the priority, the Second and third jobs must preferably be contract gigs with not too many meetings everyday. Remember: another day, another dollar.
