Did you finish handing off your projects or assignments? Let people know you’re leaving? Then yes, it’s okay. If there are people relying on you to get them things, get that out of the way and the slack. If somebody tries to give you something, say “no” and make sure they know you’re leaving, and then make it clear you’re also finishing up other items.

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

Let’s finish this up strong! What are your year-end self development plans?!

If you are interested to attend in-person or via Zoom, let me know.
