Secure new employment, balancing WFH preference with reality

Published on 10/28/2025 Hiring & Talent Acquisition Insights

With their current WFH company closing, the user has an opportunity to secure new employment with a hybrid role (3 days in office). While the return to office causes anxiety, securing this job is a crucial step to avoid unemployment. The 'better opportunity' is two-fold: first, to successfully land this hybrid role for immediate employment and financial stability; second, to continue passively seeking fully remote positions or those with more flexible hybrid arrangements that better suit their lifestyle (e.g., ability to work from different locations, less impact on dog). The key is to manage the transition while keeping long-term preferences in mind.
