Just received a job offer this morning after a grueling job hunt process, will sign it.

So it's been months of the job hunt grind and the kind of grind in a job hunt I have seen in no other market. Unemployment was getting to me mentally and emotionally. I went through a few interviews that even resulted in verbal offers or very late rounds, but some crap would come up that I shared.


After an exhausting job hunt, I finally connected with the recruiter this morning, who sent over the offer letter. I signed it. I was sent over the paper work and will be starting soon.


This is an unreal feeling and this feels different because this job hunt was the most grueling one I have ever been through. The amount of games I had to endure through it from companies and then after all of that, finding a company that treated me well and is a big name on the market.


After months of bad luck, I am happy about this opportunity and I am looking forward to doing well in this role.


Thank you for all the support Bravado.

The company is quite a prestigious one, they have been in the news a lot, so I am happy it is not a startup. There is a lot to like about the role and the company also has outstanding benefits. They have done a few layoffs which I vetted for hard in the interviews but I came away with great answers.

Great news, congrats...sure it's a huge relief. And agree, job hunting is a humbling grind....but hopefully we all come out of it a little stronger (and more prepared)...just have to push through and be confident that the light at the end of the tunnel does exist. Enjoy the moment especially the time between signing an offer and the start date.....time to really decompress.

Thankfully it is for a big company and not a startup which is something I long wanted. It has gone through layoffs in the past but I vetted the place well in interviews.
