Discussion on: What is the most overworked you've ever been?

I was most over-extended when I was working full time and trying to get a new job.

For 5 months I constantly worked nights and weekends to either apply for jobs or keep up with my day job. And it seemed like every place I applied to had a 9 step interview process and a big coding project. 😵

I was a little under qualified and not in a position to be picky at the time, but in hindsight if a company's willing to work you like a dog for an interview they'll do the same once you're an employee. Lesson learned.

That’s actually a good point!
Many company’s want you to do a lot of work only for the interviews which is almost impossible having a full time job
