You left your old job for a reason. Don’t let your disappointment at your new job push you back the wrong direction. Take the time during your parental leave to apply elsewhere and really identify what are the key things you’re looking for in your next job/company.

I thought the new role would be a stepping stone and offer more growth. Can't pivot back to old job or search for new job right now because will be going out on parental leave. But can't let go of regret that I should never have left my previous role. Even though in previous job, I had an insecure manager who actively tried to isolate me, including blocking a lateral transfer away from his group. Still grieving because I liked my role and the other people in the company otherwise.

I want to join a start up in my industry but I need to rescind a job acceptance from a more establish company. I resigned from my old job and didn’t start the new job yet. Is the non compete I signed, as part of the job offer acceptance for the position with the bigger company, enforceable if I rescind my job acceptance before I actually start a new job? I don’t think it is. I didn’t receive a sign on bonus so no additional consideration was exchanged from my understanding of my law classes.

I have two referrals for a position that I’m trying to apply to, however only one of the employee referrals is showing “attached” to the application. I accepted both employee referrals and they both show under my google account, but for the specific job application (which hasn’t been submitted yet) that one referral just won’t show up!!

Anyone know why or a solution?
