When you see job listings that say hiring is “on hold”, do you still try to apply or let it be? I've seen some posts that are on hold for literal months, and it's exhausting to keep watch on them. What exactly does it even mean to put the hiring on hold - do they need someone to fill up the role or not?

I take it to mean they are simply harvesting resumes to review further down the road if/when they do decide to hire for the role. I'm not wasting my time on them unless I can one click apply. When I do, it's with the assumption that there's a 99% chance I will never hear from the company.

It usually means the company wants to fill the role eventually, but something budget, leadership changes, shifting priorities is delaying them. Personally, I don’t bother applying to these unless I have a direct contact at the company who can vouch for me. Otherwise, it’s a waiting game that rarely pays off. Better to focus your energy where there’s real movement.

One of my friends works as a Director in Nagarro. She has been there for 7 years and has a CTC of 42 with total yoe 17. Per current trend this is low even though she is a constant top performer. She says that even though delivery people play a pivotal role, they are not paid well. In her team, she sees technical people earning 45-50 at 10-11 yoe. So the factor is 2.5 for delivery vs 4.5 to 5 for technical roles. Per her, this is quite common in Nagarro & she is not an outlier. ctd in comments

I am thinking of leaving my stable full time job for a contract position (ongoing with no time frame) for a bigger raise (making an exra $20/hour) with a large tech company. I'll still get benefits through Aquent so it's not a huge loss. It just feels risky in terms of being a contractor and the potential for it to end at anytime. Seems like a good opportunity though to get my foot in the door and potentially apply for full time jobs later on

So I pulled an all nighter on Monday to do this thing, spend Tuesday like a zombie (and I had 5 calls!!!) then on 6PM the senior reviewing my work came back with comments that I needed to turn “ASAP”. I was so tired I just said I would not because I needed to sleep. I sent them today at 1:30 PM.
Would you get mad if your mid-level/junior did that? I’m all for pulling all-nighters and billing but everything has a limit.
