ZS fish, possible to come in and work 50-55 hours a week? Or should I expect 60+? Interested in firm & work but just can’t keep working from 9-10 every day anymore. Wondering if I should apply or just hang up the hat and go to industry

Go to industry. You can always go back to consulting

I think it depends a bit, some on you and some on the projects you're on.

At the level you're thinking, I probably averaged low 50s... But that meant a sizable number of 60s in a year.

Started a new job search about 2 weeks ago. Of the 14 recruiter screening calls I’ve gone through, all went amazingly well, and I’ve only heard back at all from 4 since the calls. Why?

How much time Qualcomm take to release offer letter? I am a immediate joiner.

I got selected last week but till now didn't get my offer letter, HR told they will send the offer letter within a week.

After enquiring, now she is saying your offer is pending with India head, after that it will go to US office for approval?

How much time it really take any idea? How could I approach HR for immediate offer letter?

Any help?

Is it bad manners or just a bad idea to go back to a recruiter if they got you a job that wound up being a bad fit?
For context, I don’t think they misled me. The job changed 3 weeks after I got hired, and got stuck in a role that’s just not a good fit. Gave it 6 months of honest effort and I’m ready to start job hunting.
I saw this recruiter make a post on LinkedIn, and I liked working with them the first time, and I want to reach out. But I don’t know what they’ll think.
