>be me at comfy job for 10 years >well paid but the politics games are adding up and I'm just responsible for more and more and I just want a clean breakRight now I'm just sending my resume out fishing. How do I have the right mindset here.I have an interview already and I know I should just dgaf and be alpha but I'm still nervous for it. Do people really interview just cause? I'm also split on how serious to take it and how much I really want to leave.So yeah I just feel dumb staying in one place so long and I'm paid well and technically fine, but it's the skill of getting jobs which has atrophied.
And I also just want to be rich and not some cuck engineer my whole life but what paths even are there.
From a tech recruiter...Don't take the first job that makes you an offer. Try to get interviews for jobs you dont really want and do the interviews for practice. Apply for jobs you want then crush interviews. Take best offer.Network with multiple recruiters to have a network of people feeding you jobs opportunities (they will as they are trying to make money off of you). Don't pay recruiters. Ever.Paid headhunters rarely produce anything good.Target AI oriented roles / training / education for future proofing your skill set/candidate value. Only punt on wage cucking once you have 5+ years of living expenses and enough to start business(es). Ideally dont punt until those businesses replace your wage (and then some).
>>62050051Thanks anon. So it's not like I can get all the interviews at once to take the best, I can skip the obvious slave shops, but otherwise isn't it kind of a take it or leave it situation? How long can I feasibly string them along. If, and it's a big if, I get an offer for 30% more kinda seems like I should take it unless there's some crazy downside.Also I haven't reached out to a recruiter because I thought they might be too pushy when I'm not that serious.
