I've not performing well at work recently, and I think it has to do with my ability that take a longer time to do proper research compared to a normal person, as I've experienced similar issue when I was in uni. My partner n me has discussed and we agree to part ways, and has given me time to find a job. It's been a few months and I have been through 10 interviews and still hasn't found a job. I have been giving my best at work but it's tiring to go through the negative comments. What do I do?

I’m interviewing for a start up and the role sounds interesting. Usually for the “test” part of the interview I’ve had to analyze data. This company wants me to develop a growth strategy that outlines key initiatives for growth, different opportunities, experiments I’d run, KPIs, and working cross-functionally.

Is this a lot for an interview?

I’m a little afraid of doing all this work to then just have them take my ideas and not hire me.

I’m job searching right now and applied for a job I was a little overqualified for just to shoot my shot and get my foot in the door with a great brand. The hiring mgr took the time to email me to tell me I was overqualified and offered to help me get connected to his network. He’s been so kind and helpful and I’m kind of in shock at his generosity. Even if an offer doesn’t come from it, is it weird if I send him a Starbucks gift card or something as a thank you? What’s appropriate?
