Who's up for some warm and fuzzies today? :) Job searching can reveal who really shows up for you. Who has been the biggest support during your search? I have 2 really good friends who left my most recent employer years before I did, and they've been a huge supporter of me trying to increase my freelance network.

I believe my biggest supporter is my husband. However I like to say, sometimes it is myself when it comes to the job search.

Outside of being your own biggest cheerleader, having a supportive partner is so important when it comes to extended job searching!

My friends they really share opportunities and referrals here and there.

I was just talking to a younger friend who goes to Cal and It seems like the kids these days hate FAANG or at least Amazon and Facebook are not desired at all.

Curious on whether people are thinking about the ethics of their exit company when deciding to move?

How do you keep up/in touch with your network?
