Ive been working a job in the finance industry for 4 months and my feedback has been pretty good so far. I spend about 50% of my time doing actual work, though this my change as I’m still learning new tasks.

I get recruiters in my LinkedIn DMs daily. Im in communication with one about a very similar role, and After reading this bowl, I’ve been considering OE. However, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t scared. How do y’all prevent yourselves from getting caught? How do you set up your remote…

office to monitor both js? How do you deal with meetings at the same time? How do you deal with being “away” on teams for one job when manager and even team likely tracks this?


I have all the questions and would appreciate some advice before I dive into the world of OE.

The OE website has a great starter guide on equipment too! Plus a lot of it you’ll learn on the fly. Totally keep accepting interviews, even if you don’t go the OE route, you never know if you’ll find a better, higher paying job unless you keep casting your net. However, my rule of thumb is to wait 6 months before picking up another job unless absolutely necessary.

can anyone tell me what is the work policy in S & P Gurgaon ? is it hybrid model or wfh?

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.
