    Congrats! Does that mean you dont have to keep applying for new gigs? or still wanna get out of dodge?

      Gives me some breathing space to only apply for gig I actually want, instead of anything and everything. I’ll keep my eye out still, but will be very picky. My manager is supportive of me getting a higher paying role and might advocate to make my current role a level higher.

      At least I don’t have to deal with interviews.

        That’s definitely a great position to be in! The feeling of desperation and having to sell yourself is really demoralising.

        If I wasn’t so burnt out at my last place I would’ve definitely preferred looking for jobs while knowing I still had my existing job, but I was in no headspace to look for new jobs without first quitting my old one

          I’ve done that once in the past. Had enough and quit. Found another role fairly quickly, but it wasn’t fun at the time.

          Had an interview recently and was shortlisted. Didn’t really vibe with the role and the team, but work is work. Glad I can withdraw from that process now. Two years of certainty is very welcome :)
