Looking to make an exit out of public but not sure where to look. Have been skimming LinkedIn jobs but wanted to know other places I should be looking for job opportunities. Haven’t talked with recruiters too much because I get the feeling a large majority are just trying to fill jobs and get paid. Any advice is appreciated.

Are you in tax? I tried for 6 months so far and have not gotten an offer. Maybe because I need immigration sponsorship so I only applied for the top tech companies, which are highly competitive. And I don’t have provision experience which is another factor. If you don’t have immigration issues and have extensive provision experience, you will have a much better chance to land a job in the industry I think.

Also tax, have provision background but not compliance, still been decently hard to find something

While yes that's exactly what the recruiters are doing, it can still be a good way to be exposed to different jobs you wouldn't have noticed otherwise. You don't have to take any interviews for jobs you don't like, and just make sure you listen to your gut and do what's right for you.

Check the overtime laws for your state!!

I just recently worked 58.6 hours in a week, weekly pay, nice OT profit right? Depends on where you live.

In Iowa, there is no Overtime pay mandate, the overtime pay is at the discretion of the business. I received 58.6 hours of base pay for the week.

If the company makes less than $1 million per year or does not engage in intercontinental sales, the company is not required to pay the overtime rate of time and a half, just your base rate.

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Investing beginner here. How did you learn? Any resources that I could read/watch would be helpful. Thanks
