How do you find short term contracts for FAANG companies? I would never want to work for a FAANG company in-house full time, it’s too unstable. Smaller companies are it! But I would be amiss if I said I didn’t want a brand name on my resume for ATS purposes and to make the job hunt easier when it’s time to look. I’ve seen people who land 2-3 month contract roles at Meta, IG, Apple etc and would love the same. Even if I work nights/weekends just to get the brand name. Where should I look?

                      Is it normal that after the pre-interview with HR, and after he mentioned I would have the first interview with manager xx, he just disappeared? I sent an email and called the office a week later but no answers from him. Is this the way KPMG recruit people? He also contacted me two months later from the day I applied.

                      I've been on the job market for the past 4 months, facing challenges with securing interviews. I'm contemplating enrolling in Career Elevator (www.mycareerelevator.com) to refine my interview skills. Additionally, I'm intrigued by ApplyAll.com, a tool for automating job applications. Has anyone used either program to enhance their job search? I'm eager to learn more and would greatly appreciate any advice or insights you might have! Thank you in advance for your help!

                      Manager

                      Confused. Currently working for a mid sized firm with big clients but have been offered a role through my network for a relatively small startup but a with higher designation / lead role & similar salary to my existing pay. The new role is more strategy + lead but non technical while my current role is managerial level but more technical. If in my position, would you stay in your current role or take the new one?? Happy to answer follow up questions. Thank you.
