Was interviewing at Slalom but was told they’re going to “hold off on moving forward with the process due to timing” - is this a nice way of saying I’m out?? 😔

Why would you leave D for slalom

You told them that you don't ski, didn't you?

A lot of times our offers are contingent on signing you onto a project. If that falls through, so will the offer

Unlike Big D where we do capability hires or anticipate market needs on skills and can afford to have a bench, @Slalom if they don't have a seat for your butt to bill, please hold and the next available recruiter will be with momentarily. Difference between playing in the minor vs the major leagues. Not knocking them but ...

Higher offers at 27-28 with more fixed pay is from contract and hire/fire type companies. Mostly indirect hiring instead of direct employment with the final employer, means higher pay with lower jon security - we get little more pay, companies get the option to let go with ease later!
