Just got laid off and I-94 is expiring on August 5th (based on my passport’s expiry date). I have a new passport and it looks like I’d have to file for Form I-539 to extend the I-94 and avoid being out of status. Can anyone confirm if this is the case? Filing fee is pretty expensive so just want to make sure it’s correct. Thanks!

I got laid off in January and have been trying to find a new job since. I keep making it to the phone interview and sometimes a second interview, but always get ghosted. It’s so disheartening.

I have too much experience for an internship, and I have too little to be the top choice for copywriter roles. I know I’m a good writer, I know what I’m capable of, but it’s so exhausting trying to convince people. They always like my book but it’s never enough to get the gig. What can I do?

Can severance packages be negotiated? My role was eliminated in a restructuring and they’re offering six months severance. We were in the process of updating my job title to be more descriptive, which would make it much easier for me to get the next job. Do I try to see if they would update my title? (HR here is not easy to deal with.) Also, I heard that if you leave you can cash out PTO, but I don’t know if that’s true with a severance package. Appreciate an educated perspective. TIA

Hello fishes 🐠🐋🐟,

Please help me out here.... Your input will be really great.

I have herd that currently most of the companies are in hiring freeze. (Holiday season, recession or layoffs).

I am trying to apply job for many companies since last month, and i haven't got any response from any of them.

Are there any Organizations still out there who are hiring/open for referral and are in position to handle recession.

Please comment your thoughts. It might make someone's day.

Thanks.

My firm covers $24k for fertility treatment & $7.5k for meds (only through CVS specialty) pharmacy and these are lifetime max. I’m having difficult time with meds coverage as it seems $7.5k is not enough for egg freezing. How should I go best about using this $7.5k? I need Gonal F, Menopur, Cetrotide (more expensive ones) and HCG, Ganirelix, Letrozole. Is it better to buy Gonal F for all of $7.5k? CVS quoted $2,340 they’d charge insurance per pen & my copay would be $360.
