I’ve been debating whether to book a flight with a 24-hour layover in Istanbul. The idea of squeezing in some sightseeing—like the Hagia Sophia and a quick bite of baklava—sounds exciting, but part of me wonders if it’ll just feel rushed and exhausting. I’ve heard people rave about layover vacations, saying it’s a great way to see an extra city, but is it really worth the hassle of navigating airports, jet lag, and tight schedules? For those of you who’ve done it, did it feel like a meaningful experience or just another travel fad that left you drained?

Hi All,
What is the interview process for Data center operations engineer at Amazon?
Please guide.

What would you do?
My company contracts a web developer, we have a set amount of hours for the quarter and pay over if more work is needed.
He never gets anything done. Doesn’t answer emails half the time. The one thing he’s done was take out a blurb that threatened our eligibility for patent renewal.
We have another company taking over in January, but I still have some pretty important dev needs until then and I can’t get him to do a thing. I truly try to give him all he needs.

Had a first round interview scheduled for a large CPG brand. My interviewer never called me, and I emailed following up to confirm the call. It’s been over a day and no response. What is going on with recruiters? I tried giving them the benefit of the doubt, but not even an email back saying “something came up” or “we’ve moved on” ? I’ve been ghosted after every final interview during my recent job search, but never had I been ghosted before even having the first call??
