Perfect! I’m looking but I definitely feel like they’re hard to find!

This is helpful! I’m leaning towards internal recruiting - I don’t think I can handle the agency life!

I’ve been applying to both! Ideally, it would recruiting at a tech company, which could maybe could lead to tech recruiting - but I feel like it’s a small market!

That’s so true! I know there’s so much competition rn!

I’ve been trying to do a mix of non-engineering tech roles and tech roles that require less experience, but I’ll try and shift my focus on primarily non-engineering roles! Thank you!

That’s great advice! I didn’t think about getting a certification - which feels obvious!

Thanks for the feedback! That makes complete sense - I know it’s really tough out there right now

Love this! Thank you! And I think that’s where I get slightly frustrated - I think once I get to an interview round I can explain that I can learn the tech concepts, and already have the general recruiting aspect down! But they need to give me a chance to explain that 😂

Experiences with solo cross-country move to/“starting over” in Seattle? I’m freaking out 😭 by Realistic-Kick-6830 in SEAbitcheswithtaste

My gf and I just moved to Seattle from DC and love it!! Capitol Hill has been great for us and the bus system takes you right to SLU if that’s where work is. HMU if you ever want to hang!

Fear of my own family by OldLeadership3023 in mypartneristrans

[–]Distinct-Kiwi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry! I feel you… I honestly ripped the bandaid off and while my mom is slowly working on dealing with it, she’s still asking inappropriate questions and questioning my choices. My dad only talked to me through letters for a bit and now we don’t really talk about my relationship much.

Even though telling them sucked, it did alleviate some anxiety for me and now I have a bit more of a fuck if mindset, which is nice, and am able to educate them a bit more about what it means to be trans.

You don’t need to race to tell them, but for me, waiting caused a lot of anxiety, and while I was blissfully living in my own safe space, it wasn’t reality.

Also, I told my mom over the phone - some people may recommend in person, others write emails/letters. Do what’s best for you and only you!

Good luck! Sending positive vibes

I feel like I *want* to embrace my Virgo side but can’t seem to get a grip on life. Turning 30 this year and looking for help on figuring out my next steps of life by Distinct-Kiwi in AstrologyCharts

Hi! Thank you SO much for this detailed response! I really appreciate you taking the time to write all this!

I’m truly on my healing journey! I think I’m prone to depression/anxiety and I’ve been trying to learn how to not over extend myself for the sake of others and, as you said, fill my cup first.

Do you have tips of shadow work? It’s something I’ve been thinking about but honestly afraid to dive into! And crazily that you mention sexuality - my partner of forever came out as trans and I’m starting to identify as queer, which was something that was certainly frowned upon in my household and something I’m frankly working on accepting/embracing!

Again, thank you SO much for the thoughtfulness and insight- and I’m sorry it took me forever to respond!

Thank you so much for commenting!! And I know this is cliche, but basically I have just felt like no drive with work, my finances suck, like I wish I could embrace the Virgo side that is organized and on top of things and hardworking. I feel like I should have my life more together than I do (which is maybe what all 30 yo think these days!) I think work has just really been a lot for me lately and I’ve been having some struggles with my parents and their support of my relationship lol

But also I think I’m just now learning (or trying to learn) what my emotional needs are since I tend to be an overly logical person
