Maybe a silly question, but how do you manage in-person interviews for in-house jobs when you don’t want your current job finding out about it? In loose discussions with 3-4 companies right now and if I get to the later stages and they start asking me to come in person (particularly for longer interviews) I’m not sure how that’s going to work…

Ah. The old school way of interviewing. You have a doctors appointment or you need need to be out for a couple of hours due to the plumber coming. Use PTO. Make an excuse. That’s what happened prior to everything becoming virtual. What year are you? 🤨

You don’t have to give details, but as someone who’s going through a health scare right now that requires a ton of testing, you definitely can have multiple appointments lined up.

I completely empathize OP—several weeks ago thought about making a post on the very subject. Firm interviews are fairly straight forward while the volume and substance of in-house interviews is a lot to balance while working full time. All while balancing several companies at the same time is 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Suddenly you have a lot of important appointments (medical, personal, etc.) and family issues that require your attention during business hours.

HR is scheduling the interviews without checking time with me. One interview was scheduled and then it was rescheduled to a different time at last minute. I wasn't available at that time so I mailed the HR for a different slot. They again scheduled it for a later date without checking the time with me.
