I don’t think they are leaving - just swapping homes (I can’t find data for 2024 - everything seems to be from 2023 or earlier). In my neighborhood, houses are selling within a few days, so the market is strong.

People aren't really moving out of Texas; they're swapping homes.

Relo season

This is the busiest time of year for home sales in nearly every market in the country. It’s pretty cyclical. People want to sell/buy/move/settle before the next school year.

So I worked from home yesterday and my husband had a sneak peak on my meetings with clients (which I’m very new to being a senior). He mention that I should read some sales pitch books of some sorts so I can get a process down and not be drain from having genuine conversations with every client. I think it’s a great idea. Anyone have thoughts or recommendation?

Hi
Applied for a position in Johnson and Johnson Canada. Reached the final round 3 weeks back. After not getting any updates I emailed the HR a couple of weeks back.

No response whatsoever. Will emailing them again be inappropriate? I desperately need this job
