also ideally you want to ask about the budget before agreeing to a phonecall to maximize your gains

do it going fully remote is in like the top 5 best decisions I ever made. I maybe lost out on figgies a little but my actual disposable income is up and the qol is just insanely better. move to the beach or some nice walkable town it's great.

Dang, made it through the final interview gauntlet but they went with someone else. Learned some things to tweak. Didn’t have to wait through the weekend to hear back. On to the next one!

Was supposed to have a final interview this morning and an hour before they back out asking to reschedule, give me a date I've previously told them would not work and now silence. Fun.

TBF scheduling stuff between VPs/directors and teams can be hard even if you’re all in outlook, HR probably just saw the first open spot in the calendar for everyone that needs approval and sent out the request.

Having been on the other side, I don't doubt your right. Was just looking forward to being done with it one way or another and now have to wait a few more weeks.

I made a move from defense co one to defense co 2, ostensibly two fungible, evil companies in the eyes of many. but I’m proud of what I did at #1 and at #2 I wish I didn’t work on it (though it won’t make it to production, which is good) things worked out okay I left #2 within a year to start a startup that’s been going strong for a few years now

What are the best job boards to hit these days? I’ve been going through LinkedIn Jobs pretty hard and that’s working well but what else should I be spamming for remote work?

Stackoverflow jobs was easily the best last time I was looking. RemoteOK has a lot of trendy, lovely jobs mixed in with more interesting ones.

IMO any job board that let you spam applications are good uses of time. work at a startup if you’re into that thing indeed

Practice makes perfect. Don't worry, just get what you can out of the offer and Captain Foo posted:if this is at the start you can recover near the end with “now that i have a better understanding of the position and expectations,” but it’s tough Do better next time.

I hosed this up a bunch as well when I was first job hopping. Keep in mind that the people you're up against literally do this every day for a living so don't beat yourself up too much for slipping

galenanorth posted:What does "within our base" mean here? It means that company generally pays between $x and $x+y as a base salary for a position. The figure proceed falls somewhere in that range. How much of a gently caress up that was depends how close to x or x+y that the figure provided was. Rudest Buddhist posted:Thanks gang, it’s not the most tempting company yet but could be something. Find out as I keep moving forward! Negotiating isn’t an easy thing and trying it out on low stakes positions is a good idea.
