I got an offer for a 3-mo contingent role at Meta as a CSM that pays more than double what I make now.

The pay rate makes it hard (if not impossible) to say no - but I'm apprehensive about accepting a contract offer, especially one that's only 3-months  ending on Jan 2.

Obviously, I'm already thinking about what I'd do next. I'd love to stay in tech. Just curious if anyone has experience with a short-term contract & what the job-search process looks like during/after the contract expires.

Thought Lewis was pretty disrespectful with Checo today, when he said during the post race interview that “you know their car is quick when you’ve got Checo on your tail”. Tried to save it with “being able to follow you so closely”. Not cool, especially in Checo’s home race and after a fine P3 performance.

I worked FT as a paralegal and went to law school in the evening. I recently interviewed at a small ID firm in employment law with about 9 attorneys. They asked for a writing sample.

Then they asked for my undergrad transcript, at this point, I am now annoyed They are not Biglaw. Are they going overboard
