"of course I'm flexible with salary, I wouldn't mind getting payed more than what I'm asking"

Great & insightful vid! (Loved the "lowball" reference btw 🤭)

You can just ignore overtime issues and when asked, say something like "hey guys. We need to stay over time" and reply with "wow that's crazy, anyway. Hope it works great, catch you guys tomorrow. I gotta go do a thing". They won't fire you for being sigma. They'll be try to fire you but if you're freelance, doesn't matter. If you're ab official employee. It's an unlawful firing and you can always falsely log your overtime and claim they refused to pay. You're not REQUIRED to work overtime but they are required to pay for it. And always remember. Overtime doesn't mean working overtime. It means being AVAILABLE past the clock. So even if you're just sitting there waiting, that's overtime, bby. If the boss sends you emails afterhours, welcome to overtime. If they ask you to come in early and then you have to wait 30 minutes until the boss comes in so you can clock in. That's overtime, and it's a full hour minimum. Overtime is either a good thing where the boss appreciates the extra effort you put and pays you for it oooor... Overtime is a nightmare for them because everything you do suddenly becomes overtime and they better start paying up. It's how a freelancer charges for overtime, no reason a regular employee can't. I've pissed off many people with all the extra money they see but as long as you're good at your craft, they won't do shit. When they actually fire you, they were going to fire you anyway and overtime was never an issue. Remember there's always a guy above you getting payed massively more than you for doing massively less, so no, the budget is never actually compromised by overtime, only bad planning from management.

Thanks for the great info.

I have a big Interview tomorrow and I was very nervous but your video calm me down thanks dude, wish me the best

i will be interviewed 2 days from now, thank you for this!!! this video actually gives me hope and confidence to just be honest, humble, and be chill so i can ace it

Great stuff

Great content

you should bring your girl on the show if that's not a problem to you i don't know interview her and talk about some animation stuff that would be a great video 😎 as always good video bro waiting for the course

Thank you for the valuable insights, have you been asked before if you prefer to work at home or at studio? 😎

thanks for your precious share. After the interview, do they ask you to do an animation test?

I have a question i have been filling up for 3d modelling interviews. It's standard first Hr calls then they talk about thier company expectations and my experience with software and modelling. Then they give me something to work on for weekend and ask me to give everything rendered previews, tectured materials, textured files and ecported fbx with texture and including soyrce file. Is that normal test or are they just using me to get real work for free? Even though i know it didn't lookk good, still i wasted 4 days dling those.

If your GF is camera shy put on a covid mask then edit the voice. But ppl also probably want to see her reaction towards each question. Also question for you do you use Blender on win10/11 at home? Most likely yes I'm just curious because I saw a video on youtube Blender is so fast in Linux vs windows. I only use Linux at work using Proprietary software. Also not sure fir my new pc amd build up I should use win11. Do you know if that Netflix Blender movie use Linux or windows for...I forgot that movie you mentioned. In the end guess it doesn't matter Linux supposed to be more secure no forced updates and spying like win10 etc...

is the thumbnail ur suit

Can I ask, if you had a red flag moment. Can you just end the interview? I haven’t gotten to that stage yet but I understand that if they start laughing at you, but even in less rude circumstances we’re you may not want to work at that company. How would you end that interview. Would it be wrong to just say something in a professional way like “ I think we’ve got all the information we need here, thank you goodbye” or just grin and bare it till the end… I feel like I’m my position right now, I may be too afraid of tainting my name and just take the job T.T
