If You Were Unemployed, But Had A Hefty Savings Of 10K, In What Ways Would You Approach Your Job Search Differently? (lemdit.com)

The point is not to chill and just burn through the savings and not work. How would having that much money saved, change the way you look for jobs?

I had this. What i did was consider what the best title/type of company i could get with respect to career growth and turned down interviews for everything that wasnt that.

I came VERY close to changing my search parameters after about three months of looking with no firm offer. I landed one of the ones i wanted. Pay isnt on the upper end for the title but its still the title and a large company.

If i had to rush i probably would have taken a much shittier role with far less growth opportunity.

I am a highly trained professional with 10 years experience though so ymmv.
