Age is definitely not the issue here
When you say you're being ignored do you mean your application isn't going through?
Like no email response to application, no rejection, etc.
opaque eagle
Do you sometimes get a rejection email
That says like sorry we close the position
Or sorry we're going with another candidate
Or sorry you're not a good fit
How many applications have you sent
When did you start applying
Check your spam, I don't believe you when you say you don't get a single rejection email
Do you get a confirmation that your application is sent?

just put a different name on your resume
also you haven't actually shown anyone your resume. what if it's just your resume that's bad
cedar lake
just block out any identifiable information
opaque eagle
Unless you're exclusively applying to small places
cedar lake
is your friend a sw engineer?
opaque eagle
Where they're looking up every candidate
Yeah no bachelor will do it
That instantly disqualifies you for a lot
Sorry
Then apply to faang
cedar lake
if your friend isn't a swe how can you be sure they know anything about resumes?
opaque eagle
There are very few places that are going to Google your name before even the first HR interview
cedar lake
prolly successful in spite of the bad resume
for example who would put this
just leave it at high school. there's no need to say you're considering not working when you want to work

If there's no bachelor and there's 5 yoe then I'm assuming it's a guy who never did college but landed a job regardless and is probably or older
cedar lake
that's not enough
employers want focused people
start with #973598253620789308
just use paint and black out any identifiable info and post it
opaque eagle
I can practically guarantee no one knows your age until they boot up the video call or phone call for initial hr screen

he's gone already
opaque eagle
As for not being allowed to apply to faang never heard of that
Don't recall there being a check box for like "confirm you are 18+"
