Why does the recruiting process after passing all interviews stall? We are at a standstill in salary negotiations and I am losing momentum joining? Common problem?

It stalls for multiple reasons. Sometimes you've done well and they don't want to reject you because someone else had a better interview and they only have one spot -- so their making their offer and running thru the background checks with them.

Others where headcount needs to be readjusted because the role they targeted you for was aligned to a customer. And the customer may have changed direction on a project, therefore that role that was aligned to it went away. And now the manager is scrambling to have you hired but has to jump thru the financials and HR/headcount/capacity hurdles to get that to happen.

Wondering whether anybody’d be interested in some kind of more purposeful community- i.e., gathering w/fellow lawyers to pursue some specific mental health & well-being goals? We’d provide some counseling/coaching type content, in bite sized chunks, but have regular discussions to connect & encourage one another on applying the content IRL.
