          Pros

          You get to help students in a direct and meaningful way which can be very fulfilling. Generally the culture at UMN is very positive, community-minded, and progressive.

          Cons

          Wages have not kept up with inflation and after you reach senior status there is little opportunity for advancement unless you want to go into a leadership position. Also the scope of the job is vast and it can take 3+ years to feel like you've mastered it. There's a high risk of burnout if you don't have work-life boundaries.

        Anyone interviewed with Airbnb ? What’s the interview process and length of time like? Also, how soon did you hear back after your initial application?

        Hello everyone! I interviewed for a position back in the beginning of October. There were a few flags in the interview but I still followed up a week later and was told the company was taking there time with the interview process. Fast forward to this week, I get an invite for an in person interview that they set for a random date for a 2 hour time block. After two months of ghosting, should I attend the interview?
