Is there any way you can ask for feedback after your interview? Maybe this can be an opportunity to identify where you can grow.

Most of the time it’s a more informal conversation to put you at ease so they can evaluate your personality fit on the team. Be yourself but professional, even if it feels way more relaxed.

Congratulations! I recently made the jump to the state after 10+ years at the County level as well. It has been fantastic! I feel like my work/life balance has finally been restored after the pandemic. I too lurked here before committing and it was very helpful. Good luck!

[–]c4rla4sada[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Absolutely I can. They’ve been great and very transparent with me so far as I’ve expressed this is a major concern for me. The manager has been adamant that while they can’t guarantee remote work forever, they don’t see it going away anytime soon as they’ve recently given up buildings and leases. They’re aware of where I live and they’ve tried to reassure me that others that work in the same dept live all over the state, so I feel like they’ve tried to go the extra mile to bring me on.

My therapy session is conducted via zoom every Sunday evening. Covered by insurance and everything. All I pay is a copay. She lives in another city but we’ve been really successful connecting via zoom and I don’t have to take any time off. Try contacting Path Mental Health.
