My personal employment saga has come to an end.

For everyone who is either un or under employed, I hope this is an indication of things to come. Recently there have been some victory posts from savages in the community who landed in good spots. A few have moved out and moved up. May the trend continue.


I just landed in my org type of choice. An AI/ML series A starter with a vertical in need. It'll come with all the required, standard issue psychosis, just like I like it. Carrying a CSO title for sport.


Ahhhhhhhhhh

Congrats. I was briefly optimistic when I had 4 recruiters reach out to me the past 3 weeks. Only problem is they've now all gone silent and unresponsive. So I'm back to square one again.

Recruiters are a double-edged sword. Hate working with them, but sometimes they are the only game in town.

In my case, they certainly are the only game in town. I've been looking for a new job since before I started this one and it's been nothing but silence on my job apps for months. None of these jobs sound great, but they all sound better than my current job.

Iโ€™ve a got a recruiter friend telling me that jobs are getting pulled frequently. Itโ€™s like everyone is trying to bust out of it but just canโ€™t. From where I sit the wall is crumbling a little anyway. Hang in there.

Almost 2 months in - usually when the novelty starts to wear off, and it has. What's left? Big project, a ton of work, a CEO that keeps his word, all the autonomy I'm supposed to have, paychecks don't bounce, and a bunch of people flying around trying to make it a better company.
Pretty decent place, I think. Thank you for asking!

Is starting your own business the only option for a laid-off salesperson after you reach the milestone age of 50 ? How does one get hired at 50+ without compromising pay, dignity, location and happiness ?

Has Bravado Flex ever led to full time employment?

If I took disability leave to take care of a sick parent, is it best to tell the recruiter/hiring manager that instead of them making up assumptions as to why I took it? Would they have sympathy in regards to that or would they think Iโ€™m a flight risk? Is it better to go in detail or be vague?
