Hi! I’m going through a terrible time mentally, saw one of my parents go through an extremely critical health issue last year they’re okay now but I haven’t felt the same since, didn’t do well at my job since the incident and that reflected in my performance review. I hate my job tbh I always thought once I get a new job it might get better for me but idk the market also seems pretty difficult to crack through. My H1B is valid till 2028 and I140 is approved. I’m single too that bothers me as well. I know a lot of people are going through far worse things than me I know I’m incredibly lucky to have what I do and I’m not denying any of it I just feel like I need a break, and maybe upskill and try coming back? Has anyone done this? Is it possible to come back? I have tech consulting experience of 10 years at a reputed firm. I have been able to get interviews with FAANG in the past. Would appreciate advice and any shared experiences, please don’t be mean 🙏🏽
