What's the most interview you've had before you've landed a job? I'm already going on my 5th. It's already starting to feel a bit excessive.

Be careful what you say at this point. I had been in a series of interviews for a small PE firm where the models and ideas I was developing on the spot were actually being used in their deals. They had no intention of hiring me. Luckily got other offers.

5th separate interview, or a few phone calls and one in-person with multiple people? If you have to keep going back, they aren't organized and that's indicative of the level of bureaucracy and indecision to expect there. Moreover, it appears they don't value your time.

Needing advise. I have been at my new company for 3 months and I hate it. So much to hate too much to type up. So I’ve been applying around and I actually got an interview for my dream position today. How do I explain this current situation? I heard it’s not good to bash other companies but I genuinely do not know how to explain why I want to leave without my current company getting bashed. Should I just put it all out there or keep it vague?

Any advice on how many slides a ~15min tech interview presentation should be? I know there’s no perfect number but is like maybe 8-12 slides good enough? Context is this is for higher up like we’re talking Directors+ and they’re very smart in tech with phd’s.

I'm doing everything in my power to not quit without another job lined up, and every interview falls through. I'm overwhelmed by my clients, I've had enough corporate koolaid for a lifetime, I could not care less about what I do, and I've started exhibiting destructive behaviors at work but keep getting told I'm doing great.

If I'm going to be stuck here, clearly my attitude is the main problem. How have you learned to find joy in your job? What makes you feel like you matter here? Why stay?

Few things which make me believe that she's into me-
-everyday good morning goodnight texts, sharing posts about relationships throughout the day
-sharing her childhood memories, pics
Things which make me feel otherwise-

I recently accepted a position at the company and have been working as a temp for the past 3 months.

And unfortunately the compensation package is also lacking.
