if it's volunteering I'd put it under volunteer/project section
or extracurricular section
live in a van n you'll be richer than bezos with ur savings
- side hustle as a content creator of someone living in a van
Are you from the bay / live at home?
110k is great, you might lose a good chunk of it to yearly rent
but if you are from the bay you can save like hella on rent
personaly i dont think the solution to this is to go back to school to get even more useless education
it is rough out here for NGs but its not impossible
Imo it's not worth it to do a masters
Just wait until July / August this year, then go hard on 2024 new grad apps
Anyone ever get an HR interview/zoom after final rounds for TikTok?
Sounds like an offer call
yo @pure mauve u were the guy with a 1point3acres subscription right?
Bro it’s not healthy to always look at number of applicants
It’s meaningless because resume screen is RNG anyways
that number is also determined by how many click the apply now link
not how many actually submit an app
I was told 600 applicants for one job. I was like, “I just need to send 600 for about a 2/3 odds for a call back.”
I ask myself what does the average new grad look like?
Then I look in the mirror and say that my only competition is you.
Has anyone interviewed in England before? Is there anything, that I should note cultural wise?
just don’t mention the civil war i think you’ll be alright
There was an English civil war?
I was going to mention my desire to visit Strafrd-Upon-Avon and the story behind the greatest Easter egg.
no not really
just be normal
(im from the uk)
this shit is not helping my depression
have half a mind to curse at anyone with a nice ass job tbh
Alright, cool. Just making sure.
Remember, it's you vs you. You can do everything right and still fall short.
Reality can be cruel sometimes.
well yea thats why i have clinical fucking depression
What I do is limit my social media usage and focus on my hobbies.
I have it too.
It helps to seek out help.
i got all that no worries
hehe
its funny though, i act a completely different person in interviews, but then again that what you're supposed to do
I realized even if I do make it. This sadness will follow me for a long time. Getting past it will take some work.
act all interested about shit and the future
That's one weakness of mine. Not enough enthusiasm.
I don't know if I can sustain a fake smile 40 hours a week.
yiu just need to sustain a fake smile in interviews
The amount of times I’ve faked smiled on interviews
ya no kidding
@jovial latch you got it dawg
I keep seeing L3Harris postings are they really hiring that much?
L3Harris does not hire international students generally. They are more into defense and federal contracts.
they dont hire green card ppl too
you need to be a US citizen
Yeah I figured that 😭
Thanks.

I disagree with the "you can do everything right and still fall short idea"
there's almost always something u can do to improve the situation
you may not see it as the person in the situation, but if u adopt the mindset of "i did everything right, yet i still failed" it prevents u from actual growth and people end up just playing victim and becoming depressed
I don't want to have that mindset. The falling short part is only temporary.
living at home in the bay with my parents for the first year
yeah you're gonna save a fuck ton of cash
yeah ig but 110k is still lowball for bay
they can do it cuz shit market ig
yeah i mean it is a bit low, but its better to have something than nothing
and can always start out at that job and just keep applying
dont know ur specific situation but u will really regret if u decline and just end up not being able to find another job
oh yeah i signed immediately
its good to have something atleast at this time cuz economy is so bad for new grads
its terrible ngl
i wouldve tried to negotiate just a little if the economy wasnt so bad
yeah man
im still applying to jobs and im legit getting 0 interviews
i bet 2024 new grad hiring is gunna be atrocious
i know some 2022 grads that are still looking for jobs a year later
not fair at all man, that sucks
i got laid off in nov from Lyft, 0 responses from new grad jobs 
i had some units left so i just applied to internships
damn what really, even with experience ur not getting any interviews?
oh like lyft internship?
i had an amazing % for internships tho
the only reason i got this full time is cuz i started as intern, got part time with then, now full time starts after i graduate next month
nc nc
yeah so even now my recruiters say return offers for interns are up in the air
which i bet is the case everywhere
yeah it is ive heard so many stories where no one got return offers back
they offered stipends or something after the internship too at some places
i think economy might stay this bad for a year too tbh
i dont see it just brushing over anytime soon with all this shit going on
what a shit time to graduate
ye im curious how things will be in sept
im hoping everything clears up but like idk man
it kinda looks like tough times are still ahead
its crazy though, usually i would get like 1-2 interviews every like 100 + apps but im getting 0 back
tried applying on indeed, linkedin, career pages, etc
getting no reward for trying your best makes everyone wants to quit. I think the mindset shouldn't be "clearly you haven't tried hard enough bitch try harder" but rather "clearly the way you were doing things ain't working so you should try something new instead of doing the same thing harder and get the same results"
also depression isn't that bad its just a biological reaction saying that "you fucked up this is fucked and you need to fix it NOW"
How?
Do u think if u do everything perfect and right u can still fall short?
And yeah I agree with everything u just said
Yes??? Life has so many unpredictable twists and turns
I think I fulfilled my obligations of what an intern should deliver at facebook and didn't get a return offer, but I understand most people weren't and economy was ass
This and many other examples
There's already so much hate and negativity in the world
You don't need to bash yourself further
Be empathetic with yourself
There's only so many things you can get right then the rest is up to chance
somethings are out of our control
Bin/bash
bin/zsh
yes u shouldn't bash yourself but i think its just a better approach overall instead of think "what could I have done differently to get have gotten a return offer"
and yeah i understand that is a bit hard just because it does take a certain level of humility to always reflect on ur own actions, but i think its something worth practicing
there were G.E interns that just got rejected at fb. they objectively could not have done anything better
Ehhh
Not the best mindset
Rejection is just redirection
Part of life
overall, i think this is a reasonable approach to life but it's not absolute. things happen outside of your control
You won't get through life always 100% getting what you want, all the time
Sometimes you have to go through the valley of despair to reach the peak of enlightenment
but yeah i mean if u really think u did your best, then its okay to let go and just accept that there was nothing you could do
but im more talking about for people upset about their situation
Daniel my son
theres always things u can do to reflect on past stuff
lol we'll see
and i think the thing thats misunderstood here is "wanting to improve" doesnt always been bashing yourself
you can reflect on situations without "bashing"
What I'm saying is that it's okay to be nice to yourself lol
And that this won't be helping yourself
Your tried your best, made the best decision in the moment, whatever it is
If it didn't pan out then w/e onto the next
Admittedly yes there's learnings in looking at why you might've failed at something too
But eh...aside from that why dwell
More productive things to do than mope around the rest of my life
I got leetcode to grind
yeah I agree that its okay to be nice to yourself and also to move on if you know you've tried your best in the moment
Good job son
but theres people being like "i do everything perfect" but still cant get a job
But what can you do?
If there's X jobs and Y people looking
And X << Y
obviously theres more, but not everyone wants to
u can always do more projects, be better at LC
just look at past financial crises
Being better at leetcode wont make more jobs spawn
it makes it so if u are given an opportunity, u'll be more likley to not fumble the bag
if u suck at lc, even if jobs do appear infront of u, and u suck at LC, they will think u don't know how to code or cant communicate
I understand your POV Dan
Wdym downturn
Also I like your profile pic can u dm it to me @rain patio
Or where did u get it
if there's an extreme shortage of jobs then there's really nothing you can do
that's how some professionals ended up becoming like taxi drivers or other min. wage workers in past crises
u can yoink it if u go to the browser version of discord
@prime palm
got resume rejected from a ng position wtf 😭 , i want to cry so bad
np bro i get it
i graduate in 2 months and have no offer , i am scared as shit . yesterday night i couldn't sleep . woke up and i feel like doing nothing
also its the worst time to be an international student
can you please tell me what questions did they ask in the first round? was the first round a 30 mins test?
Hey, Can you please tell how was the first round? Was it an half an hour interview call?
i said sorry!!!!!!!!!
its ok mikes toxic too
rnt u @jaunty basalt
difficult question to answer; depends entirely on your learning capabilities and how fast you're understanding the problem(s)
but in general; at least one
Yeah it was. Mainly a culture fit
Can you please tell me what kind of questions did they ask?
Use ChatGPT to help you create a gameplan
It would be really helpful.
Why Veeva, what are you looking for in your next role, favorite programming languages
Why CS
Why Veeva is a very tough question 
Nah, I'm avoiding Leetcode
Until big tech starts hiring again
ohh thank you for these? do you think they are expecting something particular?
Not yet
Do you have an upcoming interview?
If so as many as possible
If not then 2~3 imo
hey can you please tell me what did they ask in the interview?
Damn, sorry to hear that
chatgpt
culture fit. They want someone who'll stay at Veeva long term
I was upfront and told them that I wanted to do industry right after undergrad, but I was considering grad school after a couple of years. Idt they really liked the "couple of years" part
Okay got it, ill read about their culture and prepare for that kind of answer. Have you completed all the rounds?
I'm done recruiting
first only
okay, did they mention anything about OA?
They will mention about OA if you pass the recruiter screening
It’s on Codingame there are 3 questions and you are given like 80-90 minutes I think
It is locked to the language that you and the recruiter agree upon
You cannot change language during the OA
if you pass screening you do
They said they'd give me an update, so idt I got the OA phase
You got the interview?
got it, thank you
just the first round
if i get rescinded from msft, what are the chances of me getting a 130k TC offer in todays market 
have 4 internships
im fearing
Luck
I feel like you'd fair better than others
yea isnt the main issue that theres not that many ng jobs open and looking atm
Yeah the entey level market is dry af
it was wayyyyy better in september -october area
would masters degree be the move
luck
maybe masters degree with 70k remote job or somethn
Extreme amount of it given the competition in the market rn. Layoffs + few NG positions = hell for every 50k jobs
*even
😔😔😔
Def keep grinding fs; but probably consider significantly whether or not you want to do master's
has anyone taken the spacex take home assessment?
heard argo ai is doing well , lots of recruits from cmu
173 new openings!
All the top startups have finished hiring afaik
damn
supply and demand problem
p much
Pro-tip: Add ChatGPT under technical skills
shouldnt that just be a wide variety of established pre ipos
Modular, Adept, Anyscale, Anthropic are prob some top picks
😔
my team at ddog wasnt that hot , but i def couldve asked for team switch
also ugh wouldve hated reneging on msft
job need please

how do you find these companies lol
retool
brex
tailscale mayb
this interaction is so funny to me
bro pulled out receipt
@bleak raven
Tailscale has some crazy talent, but idk if they even hire junior eng
Good startups, but not top top tier
rentech
https://modal.com/company this team is cracked
I thought microsoft was stable
or somewhat safe
i think it is hes prolly just worried
more than worried 😔
loool i feel that too
r u moving like across the country or something
u copped msft?!
DAMN
it was return, got lucky 
to nyc
worried about rent stuff
i’m from nj so not that big of a move
gotta move to seattle from liek toronto and im stressed about a potential layoff
where u working
chrispy u also looking for a job atm?
flexport
ig not a secret
chrispy is goated
ooo damn thats nice!
and im interning somewhere rn for the winter
so if it flops
ig i can bank on a return
maybe
idfk
don’t they also have chicago office, closer to toronto
i saw their CTF thing..and i was like..nope...this aint for me
yea its mainly visas and i need to like move money over and everything, cuz i have no US accounts
and itd suck cuz i have amz return offer so if it doesnt work out id literally be left with nothing 😭
Your best bet if you get laid off is prob to hand off your lease to someone else and move back home tbh
That’s my plan at least lol
Keep in mind Microsoft cancelled new grad this year so that interns could receive conversion offers, they're not reckless with their hiring. Worse case scenario they'd reassign you to a new team. I would feel safe with a Microsoft offer.
woa what i didn’t know damn
evos u got a job atm?
Not yet
u graduated?
June
oh nice, would u want to work for epic systems?
or December
after hearing from the recruiter, i realized from reading online they like to hire a lot of newgrads
so im kinda curious why not many people want to work for them
i get WLB and all that, but the pay is good and its only temporary if u really dislike it after a year or 2
I don't wanna move to Wisconsin, so it's a dealbreaker. I got money saved up and living with parents, can afford to be picky until next recruiting season.
u dont think it would be too hard to get a job if there is a gap for employment?
Nope, companies will understand
imo its possible if you get lucky via the industry hire route
Find a non-new grad position for associate level and if you get past screening
shieeer that’s true
i have 20 months of experience so lowkeyy
Referrals and connections will probs be really important for that route
Prob is I don't see many associate level roles
hence why i said "if you get lucky"
Also a lot of companies don't see intern exp === exp
if you find one you can pass screening for
having workex isn't helping too

such trash is the market rn
EVERYONE PRAYGE
FOR NEXT WEEK

Since even @pulsar mural got a new grad offer, we all stand a chance 
@pulsar mural u give me hope
im not sure he's going to pull through with a referral anymore 
ayoo wtf is that profile pic lol

radix trading

YES

Shitposts can be deceiving, @pulsar mural is smarter than y'all give him credit for
yes
i almost cant believe it lol
inbox filled with thirsty recruiters
I'm not doubting yahkuna. Just agreeing with what happened earlier
u gotta tell me yes like 50 more times before i believe it
bruh hft all be like that
https://www.quora.com/Do-quantitative-analysts-make-more-than-software-engineers oh nvm i kinda believe u now
Answer (1 of 3): Yes. That’s why all of the software engineers on Wall Street try to call themselves “quantitative analysts.”
When I was working at JPMorgan, I was doing more or less the same work that a skilled software engineer would do in a non-financial firm, but since being a “software engi...
damn mans makin bank

@pulsar mural can you invite us to the next radix dinner
@pulsar mural what happened to amex ??
he got the better offer man
not many places beat 500k
@pulsar mural do u not like nuking countries anymore
yeah but 98k in phoenix is like 980k in nyc
lol bro
Yakhuna is a quant chad now
@pulsar mural teach me ur ways, how did u get a quant job
bruh I applied to JPMC today, how did I already get rejected
98 > 500 , source: me
yahkuna makes way more than 500
even at amex
they wanted him to be the trader for the centurion program
the black card members
elites of elite
bro who is this guy...is he the son of jeff bezos or somethin?

She is greater than son of jeff bezos

Manifesting L8

Finance

as non immigrant student, if i dont get a job, I will be deported back to my country
They closed new grad a while ago
That was for experienced hires
It said SWE 1 - Digital Engineer
Altho lemme check the reqs again
https://jpmc.fa.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/CandidateExperience/en/sites/CX_1001/job/210389779/apply/email?src=LinkedIn_JPMC
Can't open them again for some reason. But yeah, the website does say that the apps are closed
https://careers.jpmorgan.com/global/en/students/programs/software-engineer-fulltime
non immigrant?
do u mean immigrant
I'm on non immigrant visa
arent students given student visas tho? like F-1 or something
F-1 is a non immigrant visa
:o
oooo so immigrant visa is granted once u get FT work
interesting
i thought every visa was an immigrant visa 💀
bro most dont get past L5 for IC and L6 for manager lol
it's a bit more complicated than that, but bascially he has 90 days to find a job or hes gone
Companies need to sponsor work visa for people like me
find a US citizen to marry 
thats how u become elon musk
Unfortunately not many are sponsoring now
wait i dont get it
transfer the title over to another company and ask for more pay

or u get married for real love
bro the whole marriage system is trash tbh
the government being all up in that ruined it

is anyone even getting interviews nowadays
im constantly getting intern interviews but i kinda want a real job lol
ng is very dry
where are you getting intern interviews out of curiosity
i have mathworks and qualcomm coming up
and a small local company
Do u have to delay grad to accept an internship
Or can you still do an internship as a grad
which track at Qualcomm
So I got let go from my current part time internship from the last year and a half
I feel bummed out but also relieved since I had been tired of doing parttime work and school and I feel thankful that I got something else lined up
wdym
i just applied to "internship - software engineering" and got a interview a few days later
idk anything else lol
ah
i've accepted a masters offer but the best-case scenario is to get an internship for summer and a ng position for september, then cancel the masters and do the internship anyway and just pretend im doing the masters but going to the job instead
lol
so i dont need to delay grad or anything
Bro you are doing research for me
I have somebody I am going to marry and love for life.
aw
i wish y’all success !!!
such contrasting replies
who wanna marry me rn
Not if not getting married gets you deported
hi 
payin !? im a citizen im in high demand
thanks 
oh damn
I’m just tryna b#e gay
welp

only tryna 
same sex marriage doesn't raise lots of questions. Since you can complain you are being discriminated.
u gonna be my side hoe tho sry @lament summit

I accepted a master's offer as well but I told my team that I'm reconsidering grad and so far (knock on wood) I'm still set to do my master's internship.
I'm applying for NG still tho so best case I do my internship in Summer and then if I don't get something/ret by Fall, I reapply in Fall
NG has been super dry esp this past week. What hasn't been dry is the number of rejections I got this weekend
Makes sense
I know a fella who gave up on new grad and decided to not graduate early
Dude was going to speedrun graduation if the job search worked out
Did anyone give databricks interview ?
I'm doing the opposite
I gave up on grad school and now I'm pursuing NG. If that doesn't work out then I'll take a mental break before I pursue FT
Even that woman who slept in Twitter HQ got laid off https://techcrunch.com/2023/02/26/more-layoffs-at-twitter-and-loyalist-esther-crawford-isnt-spared/
💀
gotta lick the boot harder
Except Amazon
elon simps are a whole different breed of morons
Yeah tbh it’s kinda to be expected
Twitter was a shit show
With hella corruption and shadow banning bullshit for political swaying
Bruh things are looking fucked
Daddy Elon came in to cut the weeds
bro i just paid $9 for a dozen eggs

bro why would you buy that

your so rich

i need that organic, free range, vegeterian fed, no gmo, omega 3 eggs
We simp for money
so i pay more
Damn lol why?
Is it healthier or somethin?
yuh
No way
its so u can make suun do bu!! and bi bim bap!!

yes beause she is the bread winner, im honestly in an abusive relationship but im sticking to it because im financialy dependent on her

Yo is yahkuna actually making 500 grand a year?
Holy Fkin shit
@pine topaz congrats dude!
yo wrong ping haaha
its @pulsar mural
@pulsar mural congratulations dude!! 🔥
u got a fancy job too?
im nothign compared to @pulsar mural 😅 so nahh haha
I am graduating dec 2023 when should I start applying for full time?
You want to start working fulltime in 2024
So apply July-August 2023
How is the market looking in the US rn?
Quite awful as of right now, 2023 grads (like me) are getting shafted so bad
But I'd imagine by Aug you 2024 folks should be okay
Yeah can imagine my whole team got laid off and my offer got rescinded.
just apply whenever anything opens
Damn rip
What company is this
Reminds me of this lovely gem
How far does your tongue go?
This guy:
3 months ago lol
Yep
i mean..the way i see it..its his company, he bought it for 44 billion, he can do what he wants with it
its just super easy to look up and criticize others
and label someone "good" or "bad"
but things aren't so black and white
I'm gonna say that buying Twitter for 44B was a "bad" move
Also this is a nothing-burger of a sentence
i mean he said all elon simps are morons
and im not even a elon simp, but people can like who they want
and we'll see man, theres a reason hes the one with the 44B to spend and not u
Ok 😃 👍
I'd agree that any1 who is a simp is a moron
I feel like thats a pretty open and shut case
yeah i mean people use that word lightly tho, like being an elon simp doesnt require u to even do much
its not like u know the guy
if u just defend him u can be called an elon simp
I think defenders of Elon Musk are called Elon simps precisely because they are defending a celebrity they do not know
then why do people criticize a celebrity they do not know?
Idk
u do have a point there haha
ig it's mainly based on objective action
Like if you hear about someone with a history of mistreating service workers for instance, you'd normally be inclined to think less of them
Regardless of whether you've met them or not
Pee pee poo poo
Help! idk why for no reason at all I went ahead and updated my visual studio to the latest version and later had to install some workloads like ASP.Net and web development. Now it's stuck at this point and I can't use the visual studio at all. Ayyone had similar issues, appreciate any suggestions. Been googling but haven't found any workable solution yet.
is DevRev worth it to do their OA? Anyone with offer from them?
I've got an algorithm engineer interview for HRT coming up soon, anyone have any advice about how to prepare?
I think it's codesignal
If it is codesignal, it is an auto oa
I have no clue how much they pay, but what other companies are you in the process with/have an offer from?
Get ready to be roasted hard
would love some feedback to my resume in #1019675142248468601 pls ty ily
is veeva still hiring
Just means they enjoyed getting to meet you 
That was from their university recruiting event?
Did they interview you there?
Try following up with the recruiter directly, that's a shit email
Didn't get a recruiter email. I asked them twice if they had any cards or forms of contact, but they said they didn't
And they didn't give last names for LinkedIns
Anyone has reached to next stage after oa?
have you completed the OA?
No
Yea solving it is not the issue more so is anyone gone to next stage this year
When did you do the oa
I did it over the weekend and nothing so far
Fucking great, c1 MLDP reached hc
I'm actually fucking enraged right now
Fuck you all
Good old Mondays
i have stopped applying and started looking for backups to maintain my statys
*status
i got resume rejected from Cohesity , idk how .
idk if i should apply again or not
it was a NG role
i am only getting rejects or no response at all , i tweak resume according to the job description also
i am losing hope day by day , in 2 months i graduate
😭
That sucks, it's a new program and they probably prioritized partner unis
fk my internship manager , the worst a human can be
Its instant so yesterday
Why? Details?
Fuck c1, string me along for a whole ass month and then they reach hc
Fucking idiots I literally have a master's degree in machine learning what fucking retards did you pick over me
U got any other offer
Sucks getting rejected, but calling people who are selected over you retards is a bad attitude to have.
I get this season isn't it, but that isn't a good attitude to have. Hate the companies' process, not the other applicants.
what is the difference between job process and the candidates in hunger games 
My summer internship experience was the worst i feel . Manager was first time managing interns in his career , had no clue how to manage . he assigned a mentor who had zero knowledge about the tech stack that I am gonna use to make the project . Had a co-intern who was atrociously hard to work with(ffs she was thinking in the end only one would get a return offer) . There were no 1:1's anytime , mentor least cared about the project . When i used to get stuck he used to redirect me to other engineers who had no clue about my project so they were not able to help me as much as they could , so all the time i was all on my own . It was stressful and most of the times i felt very overworked . I remember some few days when I was so stressed that I didn't eat for 2 days , had neck aches and what not . since mentor didn't have any knowledge about JS he would just fricking throw random things at me to do then at one point I told him that this is not possible in JS but he was like you know more JS than me it should be easy and all of that . in between manager was on PTO for a month . there were status calls every 2 days between me manager mentor and the other intern , in the start manager did attend the calls but after a point he stopped attending he had no clue of what was going on . in the last few weeks when manager came back from the pto he kept a call to present it to the team , in that also he left midway . mentor didn't show up . I felt like giving up at times but somehow i mustered up courage and was able to overcome blockers . I almost made an api authoring tool in the end which i am really proud of . but i didn't get a return offer and the mail that my manager sent me regarding the decision made me sad and angry at the same time as he mentioned that "due to specific skills and experiences required in the role we can't give you a return offer" .
I did have the skills(react and js) and the experience too . this shattered my confidance a bit and i felt as if i worked so hard for nothing .
I tried reaching out but he doesn't reply , shows no interest .
a couple of other intern managers placed their interns in some other teams if they didn't have HC . my manager was not proactive at all . its was as if like he didn't want interns at the first place .
this hurts till today
What a shitty ass manager
its hard to overcome
That is so messed up. Your manager sounds awful and I'm sorry that you went through all of that.
no , i don't want to name and shame . it was a big tech in retail .
he is , its like all my hardwork went in vain and i am going through this . i see my ambitions getting shattered .
Yeah, that sounds really rough.
ik we meme and stuff but if you ever wanna talk, you can always reach out.
Was going through a rough time a few days ago and a couple of people helped me work through it on the serv. Helped alot.
This market really isn't it, and it's unfortunate that it added fuel to the fire.

It's not in vain, the experience is still gonna help in your future roles
need a fucking future role to use that god damn experience, i am this close to snapping and losing it
my other co worker wrote me this after i talked to him on linkedin , my mentor and manager never realised this sadly
yea well if theres anything thats apparent, skill means nothing in this fucking market
literally just rng bullshit luck
yeah i mean have a lot to speak on in the interviews
what the fuck is merit anyways
Seek counselling through your school services if you can
career counseling?
It’s to be expected bro
How many times do the companies need to fuck people in the ass for people to understand
It’s part of the game
Just gotta learn to not expect to get the job
I meant personal counselling but sure that too
oh no ive been on anti depressants but ive been extremely, extremely fucked
- both internships wanted to give me full time offers but where unable to do so for different reasons
- masters degree has been no help and in fact i got specifically rejected because of that at walmart
- both my roommates got jobs from their return offers and they only had bachelors degrees
- went to 2 career fairs and didnt get anything out of them
- ive been told my resume is pretty damn good, yea obviously not faang tier but its good enough
i am this close, this fucking close to losing it
i mean how many times can you fake smile your way through an interview
I don't think it's helpful for the circumstances
see its not just that i cant get a job, its that i know from prior experience that i know what the fuck im doing and how to operate in a work environment and i still cant get anything because of all the dumb bullshit
Life and the market is unfair
yea aint that the fucking truth
Yeah it's just a shitty ass time for 2023 grads
seeing your efforts amount to fuck all is not a good thing for clinical depression
🙃
It's unfair but I guess you need to learn to accept that life is unfair
Play the game knowing that life is inherently unfair and keep your expectations reasonable
I think my biggest thing I want to train that I lack is having charisma towards people who don't know me well
Post your resume in #1019675142248468601
ive already fucking done that
Charisma is good for telling people what they want to hear
Get good at lying to companies, and frame your views and experiences in as positive of a way as possible
I'm not good at stretching the truth tbh
It's a skill I want to work on
im pretty damn good at lying
charisma and bullshitting others
i have clinical depression i have to be
In all honesty the reason you cant get a job is because first come first serve, it's on the late side and few offers coming out nowadays
blame Jay Powell tbh
Jay powell is destroying our industry man
i mean feds need to raise interest raets to bring infaltion down 
raise interest rates, raising them aggressively intentionally to slow the economy
Ah gotcha, thx
yeah Jay powell's current policy is bring down inflation at any cost necessary
And I assume this doesn't affect him in any capacity
I don’t think placing blame even is the best approach for mental health
I think Jay Powell is the only person you can blame for this mess
Just treat this like a game and think about what u can do to increase ur chances of winning
your other option ' is to tax billionaries and corporate profits to bring inflation down, which will never happen
Complaining about the rules does nothing but make u bitter
jpow knows that he's going to cause a recession if he keeps doing this
he doesn't really care
ya but hyper inflation isn't any good either, which is the path we were headed on after covid
I'd rather this then the USD loosing 50% of its value in a year or something drastic
i just hope the madness ends soon
jpow just cares about not having the workers have too much power or leverage
he can rot underneath the ground
literally admitted as much
funny how they say getting off of social media improves your mood
the literal answer is to just make yourself ignorant to all the fuckery and bullshit

inflation sucks
I paid $1.20 for milk 
I'm planning on just riding this out at my intern company. They are a mid-size place that hires all their interns back. Hopefully I get a job with them and it's fully remote and I get some time to grow my skills to interview at big tech whenever this is over.

I wonder about those who got laid off
how many got new jobs
1 single person
Like bro ima be blunt with u since we are strangers on the internet and u can take it or leave it…but set realistic expectations. Employment is just u and a company trading time for money, that’s all it is, unless written in contract, they can drop u at any time. They don’t owe u anything and u don’t owe them anything. They can bring 10 people into a final round of interviews and pick 1 that they like best, that’s their right. And u can accept an offer and dip out if u see a better one, that’s ur right
Getting mad and saying “I deserve this job because I’m more than qualified” or comparing urself with roommates is gonna do nothing positive for ur mental health
I’m sure I’m less qualified and have less experience on my resume compared to u but even im hearing back from multiple companies
he might just be trolling lol
And yes I have been ghosted but the difference is I never expected a job until I see a written contract
He’s not
huh ya he is active here. He has depression though 🤷🏼♂️
Just idk be realistic
Yeah so? Doesn’t mean he can’t hear the truth
Been pissing and shitting and vomiting and sneezing and coughing and crying about going to the office
And I swear I’m not trying to come at u in any way
I'm not defending him lol. I'd just put him on block he's pretty toxic
Just genuinely telling u how I see it
Bro who cares about being toxic. 
@livid yew
Yeah I don’t mind toxicity lol
Have you seen the news with China/US relations
Please don't use toxic language. I understand that the market is bad rn, but no need for that language.
@vagrant escarp ig
@pulsar mural
If they pull the nukes, being toxic means nothing
Everyone’s gotta release their emotion somehow, some people are just better at controlling it
wow that U took u a sec
that's because I finished it for him 😂
Soulkks likes being pegged
It's the truth tho
The shit poster squad is here @pulsar mural @dusky tapir
It's fine to havr emotions, but there are healthier ways to deal with them
Having income just lowers my chance of death tomorrow
Tell him bro lol
Literally that's it
I’m emotionally stable
Y r u always sending me weird shit
Please stop
It’s the shit posters bro
I also have a masters degree but I don’t stand a chance against a person who has a bachelors and better skills than me for a web dev position
He dmed me som vulgar shit 2
Idk I've been getting recruiters all week on LinkedIn 
You guys just aren't trying hard enough

You said it first lol 😂
It’s cause most people need to lower their standards
And ML is very niche that is now completely occupied by PhDs. So I stopped applying to ML and I now focus on general software.
While it's great you're taking initiative Please don't put down others
Soulkks only voice of reason here
He’s joking
My standards were lowered, when my doctor told me i was below average
In 5th grade 
It's not a funny joke
Anyway good luck this week 🙂

@rain patio

Because people care about it so much
Anyone heard back from Barclays?
But if it's a number 2 u y does it matter?
It doesn't matter, that's my point
side note, you will never reach my goals @pulsar mural
