Just got denial email from a job I applied for three years ago. This market is tough!

Last January I was actively looking for an external job because my employer told me I had 90 days to find a new job it I'd be laid off. I applied to a ton of external positions and no one contacted me. I found another internal position. This year I have a manager that seems to hate me. I'm again looking internally and switch LinkedIn to actively looking. I've had multiple recruiters call me and I'm interviewing with one of my employers customers. A year ago the market sucked. Right now it's way better. Maybe not good yet but better than to start if last year. Last year not. Single recruiter called me. At the moment, I seemed to get called almost daily. I have a technical background and work for a large software company.

Good luck!

I am starting a 4-months internship at a company B in January. However, I just heard from a company T that they will interview me for their full time position.

Company T is paying me way more (twice) than Company B. And I like company T more. However, they want me to start working in February if I get this position. If I end up getting the offer, I will have to quit my internship at Company B, almost immediately after I begin the internship.

Is this okay?

This job is a lot better if you don't care about the bonus and hours requirement. I can pretty easily bill 1700 hours annually and my firm so far hasn't cared in the slightest. Worrying about hitting 2000 hours for the bonus used stress me out so much, and I just don't think it's worth it. Base salaries are ridiculous and way more than enough to finance my lifestyle.

Picked myself up, gave a few encouraging words to myself in the mirror and put my fake face on for my family. Can anyone else relate ?
