It’s been months and this job market has been so exhausting. I’m tired and want to give up daily,

I know the feeling all too well. I'm having such a hard time continuing to submit applications. I know I have to, but I cannot help feeling like it's a waste of time and that I'm never going to break out of the hell that is unemployment.

I know it’s hard, I see it daily and know folks who are in the same spot.

The depths of unemployment are low and mentally draining. I hope you can take a break, spend time with friends, family or a spouse and disconnect from it for a couple days. Maybe a short vacation or change of scenery is what you need to re-ignite the winds of change.

But I see you, I hear you and I support you - this is a difficult season, but give yourself some grace. Take a small step back, and try to connect with people who might be able to help with your next gig!

Good luck, and you got this!

I hear how tough that is. I would focus on small daily actions to keep momentum. This situation does not define your value.

Please hang in there, what’s meant for you will not pass you! But it’s so understandable to feel like that!

I know it is hard but don't give up. I felt like that at one point after submitting countless applications and not getting a single interview. Keep applying and interviewing something will come along. Right now I am applying to every single HR roles that get posted. We all just want to work!

It is all so disheartening and it's becoming more difficult by the day to keep pushing on. But I keep going, because the alternative is to end up homeless.

I am product designer with a fair amount of experience (6yrs).

Recently was interviewed for a Sr. role in Booking but unfortunately the team finds me better suited as a core individual contributor.

I am also in the advanced stages of some lead designer positions in other companies.

However I am really interested in joining the team at Booking, especially because of the design culture.

What should be my reasons to accept or not accept the offer from booking?

If I'm adding multiple people to purchase a property but not on the mortgage, when do they get added - do they need to already be on the purchase agreement?

If someone could please help clarify - how do I add other people on the onset on buying a property? This is a new build, buying directly from the builder.

H1-B transfer question

I recently accepted an offer to join a company (A) . They started my H1-B transfer and I received today the approval notice for the transfer.

However, I accepted last week a (better) offer at another company (B) and they will start soon my H1-B transfer.

I attend to tell company (A) on Monday that I will not be joining them. Will there be any issue with company B filing for a H1-B transfer soon?
