The search is a full-time job, but has anybody searched while working?

Would I be able to search for a company while still working, even if it took me a longer time?

I do it while working a full time job. Sometimes if you arent laser focused the returns can not be great

I'm conducting a part-time search on a 4-6 month trial - for a self-funded geographic search in a large geographic market of Atlanta. I'm a middle level manager at a Fortune 500 and have more autonomy. I'm following a similar schedule that ^Searchfunder member‌ mentioned above. I've primarily been conducting a brokered search in order in order to filter out less serious sellers.
