Based on your nuanced reply, you already seem "well qualified" :-) > I want to WFH for 2 weeks doing my work in peace, then go to office for a few days of busy planning and socializing. That's a reasonable take. > its one of those things that benefits the company more than the individual. I disagree on that one. In-person connections are very valuable to climb the ladder faster, particularly in the early stages of one's career. They are also helpful to forge bonds with senior leadership once you are at a higher position. That typically happens with casual hallway or watercooler conversations, occasional coffees or just while waiting in line at cafes for lunch. I have seen people liking other people more once they have spent some time in person.
