When contraction at a company through an agency like Magnit/Pro Unlimited who acts as your employer of record, you know how there’s a rule/law that you need to take a 3 month break after 12 months working?
Can you collect unemployment during that time?

*contracting, not “contraction”…typo!

Nope.

Do you know why not? You’re not employed for those 3 months. You’re not getting paid. You have no benefits. There’s no guarantee that you’re even going to be back at the place you were contracting at.

Yes you can collect unemployment

I have collected unemployment for the last three years with this exact set up through them.

Hey, another question for y’all. How should I reach out to a recruiter who offered me a full time position but I rejected for a better offer? At the time I was offered the position my main concern was lack of guidance/support from leadership. Now, a year later I have experience being in a role with limited over site (not as scary as I initially thought it would be) and feel confident I would excel in the role I rejected. How would you approach this situation? Thanks in advance!!

Fellow introverts...can I only advance in my career if I take on a leadership role? The thought of this terrifies me. My current boss hasn't exactly given me the confidence that would reassure me that I'm leadership material. He constantly questions my design choices, which I'm able to defend. It doesn't help that he always presents outdated ideas and throws UX out the window. I know that I know my stuff and keep up with best practices. I have 4+ years experience but am treated as entry level.
