Rejected after a final round, but the recruiter told me that I could apply for other positions and would get a reach out from another recruiter for that role. Is this just courtesy or a signal that I met the bar but just wasn’t the final fit?

In this case, could I apply to an adjacent role (e.g., S&O instead of program manager) and expect to get a reach out from the recruiter as well, or does the role need to be like-for-like?

If they gave you a specific role posting to apply to instead, they're serious about you probably being a good fit. If they just said a more general apply for something else, then they were just being nice. In the latter case, feel free to apply to whatever, whether S&O or PgM or something else reasonable.

If I have two 401ks (current job and previous job), does the 19k limit apply to both of them together or 19k each?

If I were to rollover a pension lump sum into one of those 401ks, is counted towards the $19k limit? Or is rollover classified differently and I could still continue to contribute to my current 401k?

I've interviewed 2x last year with Google but didn't find a fit with the role. Recent promote at work who's positive and gets shit done, would appreciate a referral so I don't bug my other friends again!

TIA, just know I'm really grateful.

Currently scheduling “on sites” for a S&O role in CA. My referrer said they can hire as L5 or L6. Would like to land in the L6 bucket as I’ve heard 5 --> 6 is one of the more challenging promotions.

I’m looking for info on what the real difference is in responsibilities (manager vs IC, cross functional vs focused, etc) so I can focus on checking the L6 boxes during my interviews.

I’m also curious about whether this is something that I should just discuss with my recruiter directly?
