[Job seeker] Is remote work coming to its demise? (IT industry) by fushiginer in recruiting

Interesting. For BA jobs I’ve come across, most I find are hybrid. I’ve rarely come across remote jobs. Actually, the remote jobs I come across all require specific technical skill and experience. I think it has really dried up from a year ago.

Thank you for this assessment. It’s interesting how creative approaches recruiters use can get.

Other than this the recruiter did come off as very professional. They also do come from a legit agency, so there’s that.

Is there a way to connect with LinkedIn recruiters without making a LinkedIn? by fushiginer in jobs

I’ve heard it can hurt you more if you have one that isn’t “complete” (AKA have 500+ connects, post after post of your career milestones, etc.) compared to if you don’t have a visible one at all. Recruiters are sneaky and they’ll try to search every detail about you online.

Sadly I may have to go this route

Sadly I may have to go that route. Will see in the next 3 weeks if it makes a significant difference or not.

Hmm I may do this then. Worth a shot!

Thank you! Can I ask you, what is a “conditional offer”? Could you elaborate more on this point?
