#

kinda heartbreaking, i was waiting months for this and hoping on this for so long as my out finally

#

and this stupid thing ruined it all

upbeat swallow
#

i know it’s shit but i feel like interview is all about luck and i guess u got unlucky this time. You will get something better next time

cursive carbon
#

yeah thing is in canada the tech market is even more cooked for new grads than in the US

#

so having this remote job option would have been very good

#

now it'll be very hard to find anything else

warped jacinth
#

I feel you bro

upbeat swallow
#

yeah i hate when i meet mean interviewers.. why make someone’s life miserable

cursive carbon
#

😭

cursive carbon
#

i put almost all my baskets into this company

#

sucks

#

#

the recruiter was like u sure u don't wanna do frontend? ur experience is good for it

#

and i was like can i try backend and we schedule frontend interview later

#

and she was like yeah sure

#

and now no response

#

and im kicking myself because i prob would have passed frontend interviews bc according to others they're super easy

upbeat swallow
#

yeah i mean i also got fucked over coinbase even tho i cleared all rounds.. i hope both of us will get something better

cursive carbon
#

there is almost nothing that i could get thats better

#

the pay doesn't compare to anything in my country and especially remote

upbeat swallow

cursive carbon
#

yes

#

there r remote jobs but its usually very low paying

#

upbeat swallow

upbeat swallow
#

keep applying tho it’s all about numbers game

#

spend 2-3 days to relax and chill tho since u might get burnt out

warped jacinth
#

Yep that's true

upbeat swallow
#

i even apply to consulting companies and no name startups

#

cause it will at least give me interview experience

#

warped jacinth
cursive carbon
#

i apply to everything i see thats available

#

which isn't a lot

warped jacinth
#

I mean apply everywhere possible it's a best option dude

upbeat swallow
#

apply to US roles too even if u dont want to move

#

maybe ur mind will change once u get an offer

#

or u can just use it as a practice

#

its so much easier to move internally to canada office once u join

warped jacinth
upbeat swallow
