    Do not get me started FUCK linkedin FUCK web development we weren’t supposed to make COMPUTERS anyway

    I kid you not i put out some 300 applications… 2 (TWO) rejections, both of which i was not certified in said required software stack, expected. And two false lead contacts, both wanted me to stop searching for jobs but wouldn’t give a date for an interview for over a week, one was for a community college.

    I returned to unspecified manufacturing, I’m in a really weird spot, and layoffs just started. I dread returning to the market

      Bro that’s fucking insane. It might be a good idea to just start networking with people irl, the chances are way higher considering you’ve sent over 300 application, damn

        I’m grateful to be in a place to network from now, however even with that university’s “networking seminars” none of their partnered companies gave either my classmates nor I any leads. I remained in touch with my classmates until each caved in going back to their original industry
