Got a job offer with almost 50% increase in my base but I'm not sure because the company seems toxic. What should I do? The company seems almost desperate to hire

So today I received an offer from a startup that is giving me a pretty good 50% jump on my current base. It's not a well-known startup but during my interview i noticed certain red flags, the way they were interviewing, very arrogant and got a lot of micro-managing vibes from them, expect designs to delivered very quickly. While the money is very good, I'm skeptical if I should accept it or not? What would you guys do in such a situation? I am working currently

At least someone help pls. I'm in desperate need of employment. Pls I'm begging.

I've been looking for jobs for 1.8 years now and I've never received any calls from recruiters for the position I've applied to. I've got my resume checked/reviewed multiple times. I'm just not getting any calls. Please I really need a job, please. And to the recruiters - don't treat candidates like they are some use and throw pen, disposable plates, treat them with respect and don't lie to them. https://share.gvine.app/HwaPKe36RcUc4LsYA

Desperately need help

I am aggressively looking for a job change. I am frustrated with my current company to the point where I could just resign and sit at home but I don’t want to work in this toxic environment even for another day. Would be extremely grateful if you guys could help me with some referrals. My forte, Finance/Project management. Thanks in advance ☺️

Desperately need help on this

I got an offer in a company and I worked there for 2 months in probation period(They have 6 months probation). Now, I got a better offer. So I resigned. But they are denying me the relieving letter. Also the official resignation mail I sent was from office email, to which I don't have access now. And the company where I got the offer now demands some kind of proof with company logo and seal on it. The old company is denying to give any document whatsoever. What should I do? Please help 🙏

Laid off unexpectedly, desperate for referrals (frontend/fullstack)

Guys & gals, I've been put on 3 months notice. Been working from home, my company (a startup) suddenly wants me to come to the office but I can't relocate immediately due to financial & familial responsibilities, so they're laying me off. I have 2.5 yoe with Angular, but am extremely interested in learning other tech too (React/Vue/any other frontend framework, mobile dev with React Native/Ionic, Node/Go for backend). I'm confident that I'll be able to pick stuff up quickly with a bit of time & support. Prefer WFH but I'm open to relocation if the offer is good enough. Would appreciate any leads 🙏 I'm the sole earner in the family and the news has shaken me up mentally. Things are tense at home because of the strained finances. Been applying from the past 2 weeks but no calls yet (early I know, but still). At this point I'll take any opportunity to keep afloat.

Sorry if this is the wrong board to post in, I'm desperate. Should I be honest about my past struggles of depression/addiction with recruiters while explaining the 4 year gap in my resume?

[TL;DR former National quiz champion(covered on TV and newspapers)dropped out of B. Tech in 2020 during peak of addiction and depression . Got over it and sober in Jan'23, resumed college and completed my B. Tech in Feb'24. Picked up coding again and feel ready for a job now Should I be honest or lie about the gap? Been ghosted my few recruiters whom I was honest with.] JS developer here. I used to be a decent student, public speaker and one of the best quizzers in the college scene. Made it to TV shows and featured in newspapers articles. But I never addressed some traumatic events that took place in my life before I turned 16. My depression took refuge in substance abuse and I abandoned all studies/career prospects during the pandemic. Eventually after 7 years of using, I got clean/sober in Jan'23 and resumed my studies. I earned my degree but on paper it took me 8 years to complete a 4 year B. Tech (2016-24). Reasonably I get asked about the gap in my academics by hr/recruiters whom I push my CV to. I've been dead honest to them about my struggles with mental health and addiction in the past. And I've been getting ghosted. (It could be because of skill reasons on my part but I'm not even getting a feedback). Should I not tell recruiters the truth about the gap? Should I leave the addiction bit out? How should I word it? I've never held a real coding job before but been slogging for the last 6 months to get better each day (my github and projects will reflect that). Please help me out with all your valuable suggestions. If you're a tech recruiter let me know how you would perceive my case.
