I left a job with a good relevant degree, decent resume built up over time, etc. to go back to school in a different city for what I feel passionately about (which also pays well.) I live with my supportive partner. I didn't update my resume, so I keep getting these contacts from recruiters to do what I did as a designer or engineer in the original city or a different one. Some are decent offers, but I turn all of them down conditionally.
I say that I still work for my last employer part-time, and part-time for myself. I'm not interested in moving, as my partner is happy with what they are doing. I AM interested in WFH though, I will say. The recruiters never seem to have any of those. I've even flat-out responded to claims that it has to be in office that I did the exact position at-home for other companies, and that the company is just making that choice and would do better if they weren't so picky.
I'm hoping that all this WFH demanding will eventually do some good.
If the public consensus is that it does good, then I suppose the good thing for folks to do when they get job offers they're not interested in would be to accept it on condition that it's a WFH position.
I'm still going to keep responding with my demands regardless. It's rather entertaining.
