I’m not an employer. But I’ve been intentionally unemployed for the last 18 months and have been lucky enough to pass on multiple jobs because they weren’t the right fit. I haven’t applied to anything. The networking is just really good here.

Not helpful, hand over some crumbs. I just interviewed with a cool company in San Jose. Despite the interview going quite well (unusually) last Friday they have not responded this entire week. Experience says forget about it.
