Too Long; Didn't Read
One of the least successful and yet most strategic advice I used to give my students at Holberton School was: when hunting for engineering jobs, <strong>no matter how hard it was to get your first offer, don’t ever accept it right away</strong>. Of course be clear that you’re not refusing either, simply ask for more time. It was unsuccessful advice, not only because it is a very hard thing to do once presented with the moment, but also because I was never very good back then at conveying why. I feel I’m able to express it more clearly now, so that’s what this piece is about.
