I received a Senior Game Developer position at Globant Game Studios and just wanted to know if anyone has any idea about this department. I received Bangalore as the base Location and they told me Pune is having all the team, in future will they ask me to join in Pune? Which I don't want to.

Honestly, I thought being a nurse it would be very easy to get a job and honestly it is not because I agree with you
I am now applying for assistance from the county. My 401k was cashed in. My niece tells me, "Know one is coming to save you!" My friends don't understand, they are not nurses. My close friend is retired from the Pennsylvania State Troopers/Police and has the best pension, health care, and savings after 25 years of service. She has never asked how she can help? I am sometimes afraid of my own thoughts. My family that I grew up with, including my older sister by 5 years has all died. I have 2 daughters and there father got full custody because he is a doctor and can provided adult care for when he works. I learned from my youngest daughter, "Daddy has a sleep over friend at night." Meanwhile I am sleeping in OUR bed room, upstairs!
You are right about that. I have several friends who are in the same boat and cannot find anything. Not to mention the job market is rought right now in general.
I am in the same boat right now. I have been a nurse for two years. I have been unemployed for six months, and I unable to find anything in nursing. I gave up and took a non-nursing role. I hope you find something soon.
How about a chill nursing home in the neighborhood, out pt pre/pacu or docs office? I’m 54. I’m travel nursing bc I can’t handle corporate world crap anymore and would choke myself with my stethoscope if I had to stay at one place long term. Medical staff are miserable everywhere. It’s like a plague. I have start up business and planning to retire within the year.
I am right in this age range as well. I put myself out there recently and almost 70% of initial replies are travel roles, which I'm frankly not interested in. I have had phone interviews lined up where no one calls me... so can understand where you're coming from. I hear you with considering non-nursing options.
It has been two years for me! I am looking outside the medical corporation world.
The job market is rough for everyone right now I think. However, I know that aging sometimes works against us. Which is crazy when you consider how old some the physicians are. But I hope something comes along for you soon.
.maybe look into hospice
