After looking over my LinkedIn profile, a recruiter reached out just to explore the possibility of working remotely on a full-time basis after I moved from the San Francisco Bay Area to the San Joaquin Valley near Sacramento.
The recruiter scheduled a day and time to call me. I waited, but the call never happened. I followed up with a message suggesting that it would be better for me to call at a day and time that the recruiter would be available.
After the arrangements were confirmed, the recruiter did not answer the phone when I called and I could not leave voicemail.
The runaround continued for several days before I sent a message stating I was no longer interested.
Still, I wasn't really disappointed about the outcome. You see, I'm taking a well-deserved sabbatical after working for a slew of pre-IPO startups to Fortune 500 companies: 17 jobs that lasted 6 months to 6 years along with the 7 layoffs that lasted 3 to 11 months.
My life does have a meaning, purpose, and plan. I just have to remember that it's not up to me to know (or understand) all of the details.
