joeshmoe112··on Ask HN: How is your job search going?
Pretty terrible in LA.

I was laid off two months ago. I haven’t been able to find an internal transfer team. I had two interviews but they both went for other candidates

I have one interview left. No more hits from applications, no more recruiter contacts and no more people I can ask for referrals. I’m burnt out from studying

Now I am being fairly picky at this stage, trying to aim for roles at big tech that can match my previous compensation.

If this last interview falls through I’m going to take a few weeks to focus on my mental and physical health. I’ve gained 10 pounds the past two months and stopped working out. So I’ll start with that. Then when I’m in a better place emotionally I’ll resume and expand my search.

Luckily I’ve been following r/financialindependence since I started working so I have a wealth of savings I can pull from to pay for my life while I find a job
