Background
I am currently in the last year of my traineeship. I am currently working in europe but I came from asia. So my family is far away from me. Last time I saw them was last summer.
Problem
I have about 15 vacation days this year. I can use them in two ways. I can either go back to my country or I can stay here and use them whenever I have an interview. If I don't find a job by the end of my traineeship, I will have to return back which I don't want.
I asked my supervisor to allow me to work from home like once a week. He did not allow me. He is quite inflexible.
What should I do?
Use 12 vacation days to go home and keep 2 or 3 days for an interview
Stay here and use all my days for interviewing(Cause I am terrible at interviews and I am sure I wont find a job till like the 12th one)
Another way?
