Hi All,

I am a Salesforce Developer.

I'm currently serving a 90-day notice period (40 days remaining) and recently cleared the first round of interviews with XYZ Company, with the second round already scheduled.

After the interview, their HR reached out and asked whether I could start working before my notice period ends. The idea she proposed is that I work 2–3 hours daily for XYZ while still fulfilling my current role, and be compensated as a consultant based on the hours logged — though I'm still unclear on the exact structure.

Honestly, this feels like moonlighting to me, and I'm not comfortable with any arrangement that could raise ethical or professional concerns down the line.

Has anyone been in a similar situation? If XYZ meets my salary expectations, should I consider working as a consultant alongside my current notice period — or is it better to decline and wait it out?

Would really appreciate any advice or experiences you can share.

I'm a Salesforce developer with 4+ years of experience in LWC, Apex, and Integrations. While AI can now generate a lot of the code, I still want to stay relevant and grow with the platform.

With all the buzz around Agentforce and concepts like Headless 360, I've been feeling like I'm falling behind on the AI side of Salesforce. I've decided to lean into it and start upskilling — but the challenge is that Salesforce keeps releasing new AI features faster than I can keep up, and I'm not sure where to focus.

I've already completed the Agentforce Trailhead badges (Champion, Innovator & Legend), but honestly it feels like surface-level coverage.

I'm looking for a more structured, developer-focused roadmap to truly understand and build with Salesforce's AI capabilities.

Has anyone mapped out a learning path for this? Where would you recommend starting, and how do you keep up as things keep evolving?
