Hey All,
If you've been keeping up with my posts (don't know why you would) but I've been looking for a new job and then was laid off out of nowhere and now have a great update - you all were right. The market is not only insanely hot but I ended up with 4 offers all paying more than where I was previously at. Just accepted one today.
I ended up having something like 45 total interviews. It was getting a bit bonkers but treated it like my regular pipeline and it went smooth. And yes, I crushed every mock call/presentation I was given. I point that out because the former head of sales made it a point to tell me maybe I wasn't so great at sales when they were throwing me out the building (this is while knowing I'm at 150% of quota).
Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who wrote words of encouragement or advice. It helped a ton and made me feel not so alone. I made sure not to take to heart the negative words and just keep chugging along. I'm now going to be in the industry I want to be in, have much better leadership, and getting paid more to do it plus better benefits.
All in all this was a blessing and very thankful to this community for the help!
