I’m not under 30 anymore, but what I used to do was hit the gym regularly. Much less crowded and I could workout without any distractions and/or waiting for equipment.

Other activities are gaming, watching tv/movies and reading. After I left consulting, I starting also cooking my dinners freshly vs. eating something prepped earlier in the week

Loneliness generally comes from not being preoccupied. Try to keep yourself busy with your hobbies or whatever helps you unwind. If you don’t have hobbies, then it’s a good time explore what might interest you!

Also no longer 30, but I found new hobbies. I also listen to podcasts at night or try my best to prep for the next day so I can fall right alseep. Gym also helps. Occasionally talking to friends or family and prayer also helps with the sukoon part. I think you can be lonely at any stage in life even with a partner. You just have to learn to enjoy your own company and enjoy the silence

Is it feasible to push from promotion from SM to D with under 1 years tenure at the firm, or would that not be entertained? Opportunity in the team, SM grade is over staffed with more coming in, no Directors, and have been high performer (based on metrics, sales and developed strong network)

Blogs, YouTube, books etc I’m not looking for paid courses because I will be learning at a slow pace. Any help will be appreciated.

What are peoples thoughts on working for a Banking Company in a Product or Tech role? I know there are mixed feelings since it’s not working directly with interest, etc.

If you currently work in banking, what was your reasoning (besides pay)?

If you don’t, would you ever accept an offer if it in a Tech or Product role?

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)
