Usually start with a partner who works in target location and soft test them ie how busy are you, what roles are you recruiting for etc. If they’re interested, you can test at home office with something like “SO may need to relocate for work / study, how easy would this be if it happened?”. Gives them a good chance to discuss in hypotheticals as well as providing a nice neutral reason for move that means partners don’t get defensive or offended.

Hi Sharks,
I have offer from TCS from my base location & 2 product based companies from another city.
I have already denied over mail to TCS that I cannot join as I have better offers in hand & they ignored my mail for counter offer.
I have to now deny company A of other city whose HR was advising to not deny joining once u accept the offer.
Company B is one of my dream companies & offered the highest among all 3. What should I say to the HR of A? Will they blacklist me if I don't join?

I was fired last month after a short time at the company. I knew things weren't going well- it was a terrible culture fit & I was also planning my exit strategy. They wouldn't give me specific reasons other than to vaguely say it was performance related. I agree I made a few dumb mistakes (none of any dire consequence) but what kills me is that I tried really hard. I don't want to change careers but I have a deep seeded fear that no matter how hard I try, I will never be a "good attorney".

My partner bought a new truck earlier this month. We’re hoping to joint-purchase our first home next spring. Is there a “best” time to get pre-approved for a mortgage? When should we start the home buying process?

So far we’ve kept our head in the realtor apps to see what the market is doing.

How do you judge when to leave a company for something better if you never burn out or hate where you are?
My specific situation: 4 years out of undergrad with Slalom, I like my job/coworkers and am making solid money but am starting to be qualified for interesting/lucrative exit ops. Not trying to grass-is-always-greener myself out of a good thing and I'm in no rush to leave, but how do I know when it's time to take advantage of other opportunities? Would love any advice from older folks!
