Does anybody have any advice when applying to postings with many applicants and getting noticed? The company I am interested in is Figma, and though I reached out to a few technical recruiters after applying through LinkedIn, I am wondering if there might be something more I could do that maybe I’m not thinking about. Also along those lines, if anybody here works for figma I would love the chance to connect

Honestly, I'd say it is. Finish out strong and leave a good impression. You never know when you'll run into people in your field again. My policy is to always move on in a very positive way. Also losing an employee can be hard on the team. Use the last week to help minimize the transition of your duties to another person.
Yeah agree and nothing better than that sweet pto payout
Think like a manager. If a direct report did the same to you, would you think that was awesome or in poor taste?
Who cares. Your employer would fire you without notice in a heartbeat if they thought it would be more profitable to do so than keeping you on. You owe them nothing outside of what you are contractually obligated to do.
If you feel some personal loyalty to your team or manager then maybe not. Personally, I work to make money and enjoy my life and not out of obligation to a manager that makes three times what I do. It's their problem.
Except in extreme cases, it is always better to leave a job in good standing.
In the future, you will likely need your former supervisors and coworkers for references, for job opportunities, and for networking in general. If you leave with a negative impression, you better pray that none of them are in a position to stop you getting that "dream job" in the future. If you take that PTO, make sure it doesn't impact your future career plans.
Another possibility is that you may be entitled reimbursement for banked PTO when you leave the company. I would look into that before doing something potentially damaging.
Yeah work it. Chances are they will pay you out the PTO, and your 2 weeks but let your last day be the day you turn your notice in. That happened to me anyway
Do what is good for you not the company.

They will terminate you immediately if you take PTO during your last two weeks.
Why keep you on the books as a liability if you are on pto
If you accrued the days why not have them pay it out to you after?
You should take your PTO first and then put in your two weeks.
I wouldn’t do that because they should pay you for your PTO accumulated when you leave, at least in some states. Double check that for yours.
A previous company pays out 80 hours of earned PTO. It was common practice to use up anything over 80 hours just prior to and during the 2 weeks. As long as the PTO was requested and approved PRIOR to handing in the 2 weeks, it was honored.
Give three week's notice and make the last one PTO. You can always say you work on the very last day. Or say you'll be available to answer emergency questions and handoff questions.
Yes. Speaking from experience you will be burning a bridge with you old employer, which might come around to haunt you in the future.
It depends on how much they would still be depending on you during that time.
I was leaning towards saying no, but after reading the thread - I see the logic. I'm tempted to do the same as I'm quitting soon, but rethinking that now
Yes, it’s in poor taste. People will say, “if it were the company, they’d fire you immediately.” That may be true, but Uber would also pay you severance.
Can you do it? Absolutely. Nearly all US employment is at will. So you can. But think of it this way, “if you were your boss or team mates, would you like it?” My guess is no. So give two full weeks, no vacation. Unless it’s “unlimited PTO” they have to pay you out earned PTO.
They would pay severance because they are contractually obligated to do so, not out of the kindness of their heart.
Depending on what state you live in, you should definitely be using up your PTO before your end date. The pay out rate of PTO is usually only a percentage of what your salary coverage would be.
It's pretty standard that most folks who put in their 2 week notice will also include their remaining PTO balance. (So if you have 1 week left of PTO, your last day could technically be 3 weeks out if you wanted to do 2 weeks of work to transition out + 1 week of PTO)
My company wouldn’t pay it because you were not active at work your last day, you would need to come back. You would also run the risk of being considered not giving a proper 2 week notice which would make you ineligible for rehire. If it was prescheduled that would be a different situation that would likely be unliked but considered differently, still wouldn’t pay out but wouldn’t be considered only a 1 week notice.
