When searching for jobs, how do you attend in person interviews?
When working from home it’s a bit easier to pop out for an hour or so but how do you do it when in the office??
I feel like I can’t constantly say I have appointments

Super difficult to get away with more than a few times. Honestly I haven’t heard of in person interviews in forever.

You can't. Once or twice spaced out over a few weeks is fine. More frequently than that and you start raising eyebrows. I try to do my virtual interviews on lunch breaks. If I have to do an in-person, I try to stack it with others whenever possible so I can make the most of the PTO day I'll have to burn to attend without anyone catching on.

I save it for when it’s a job I really feel good about. Just within the past few months, it seems like everyone is asking for more in-person interviews vs. virtual. Definitely makes it a lot harder to do.

You can try stacking interviews on the same day or spacing them out, like one every few weeks, so it’s less noticeable. If you’re disappearing for an “appointment” every single week, that’s when it can start to raise eyebrows.

As the CSC exam costs above 1000 CAD, I wanted to be sure if I need it before investing behind it.
