First for it’s over

>>108272286

how long is it too much? i've been unemployed since june and it feels brutal.

i was working as a """data engineer""" but the job was a meme. it was a WFH where there was nothing to do though the company could mantain my position and i was confortable doing nothing and making money.

now i have no prospects of getting a new job in this bloody AI market. no replies, no interviews, no responses, no nothing.

how can i get a grip?

>>108274417
i'm scared. i'm scared.

>>108274404
how did you get fired? other than applying for jobs what have you been doing since june? make any projects? link up with someone?

>>108274425
well, the company was merge aquired and the new leadership started cutting costs until eventually got to me.

to be honest, i'm stagnating: i plan to take certs and study core skills but i simply don't start. i'm too lazy or too scared of doing something. i know i'm not entitled to a job but i simply freeze when i have to do something. and finally my linkedin is not filled with info, just the positions/companies i worked in. i'm very low profile and so i don't like exposing myself too much.

in the end, i know, i deserve this. i have a problem but i just don't pull myself up to do something.

>>108274539

Im wrapping up my last contract. Job boards are empty. 5 whole ass it jobs in my state on indeed and 1 on dice. 1 fucking it job. I changed up my resume to apply for industrial maintenance and HVAC/electrical shit, but it's going to be pretty hard to pass off how I've had a job this long without any sort of cert. Do I admit (lie) that I've been an unlicensed contractor for the past 10 years?

you're not entitled to anything

Am I not getting calls due to not having a LinkedIn photo?

Last week I was doing labeling work for Anthropic through a contractor for $40/hour, and they can outright reject your "tasks" for completely subjective reasons. Of course, if they reject it, you don't get paid, so obviously they have incentive to reject your work.

This is an elaborate scam to get a rotation of developers working for peanuts. There are so many "developers" desperate for any work that they can pull this off.
If you're enough of a sucker to keep getting more than half of your work "rejected" and effectively getting paid $15/hour or less, good for them. If you're not, it doesn't matter, they have enough suckers to do at least 10 "tasks" for them before they figure out the scam.

I was suspicious from the start, but if figured maybe this wasn't a scam because for each "task" you have to make a fully working app from scratch in 5 hours and compare the model's generated code through every prompt, so obviously programming expertise is required. Clearly I was wrong. So if you ever get an "offer" for shit like this don't fall for it.

how the fuck is it possible that HR is universally a group of female gatekeepers??? For every 20 hr roasties that email me I'll get a single dude asking about my resume

Graduated ~6mo ago with PhD. Have elicited effectively zero interest in anyone. Got 1 interview early on but rejected a couple days later despite being a good candidate on paper (social skills my biggest weakness by far). Other than that only had an interview for temp position at early stage startup and the pos ghosted me after offering job and an interview with a furniture store I wasn’t good enough to work in. Trying and failing not to get caught up in all the places my experience might appear weak. Naturally been rough on the self-esteem and general outlook. Caved and applied to a couple postdocs (maybe 5). Get offer from lab at big name school after thorough vetting process. Get offer at ivy league school under huge name researcher I’ve been aware for years now. They even fly me out to meet the lab and seem interested in my work. Want me to be the ML expert for the lab. I’m sorry for you guys (and myself, god I’m so ready for a real job and not more of this pretending I’m a student to justify not paying me much bullshit), there’s something so fucked with the job market right now, especially tech and it’s all the worse for you 20ish year olds. Talked to someone with multiple years at google who’s struggling to get a job. As far as I’m concern this postdoc position is way more competitive in a reasonable timeline than any of the 100s of job apps I haven’t heard back from. Good luck. This shit is more than you being bad candidates

got an interview lined up tomorrow, I doubt they will hire me and I don't really feel like waking up early. will post how it goes

>>108287974
No, but, if I was going to be late, I'd try to reschedule at least 30 mins before with an excuse. No reschedule, I'm probably not getting that job, so why show up. Just tell them I'm not going to make it at that point.

I went apeshit and starting phoning a company that's been advertising a job for months that I would be perfect for. I got an interview right away, but then it didn't happen (arguably my fault). The HR person for that job was a man, and he has been completely unable to reply to my follow-up emails or anything. He's hopeless.

>>108287974
What I just wrote above is literally this. I was expecting an email with a link to the online meeting, but I didn't realise the link was in the previous email, so I spent five minutes waiting and the interviewer had given up on me by then. He has emailed me a couple of times since, so he didn't ghost me, but he can't arrange a new interview to save his life. He's hopeless. Or maybe he's just toying with me to humiliate me.

>>108288366

I actually asked a friend how she got her job recently, because she was helping me because I'm convinced I'm doing it wrong. She asked what sort of wage I wanted, and I said £40,000, because that's pretty much the very maximum I can get and it's very slightly more than I was getting at my old job. Based on what I've read here, £40,000 in Bongistan is probably about $150,000 in American job money. Now, this friend is a nice person and she's helpful and stuff, but she doesn't radiate incredible genius or anything, and she was shocked at £40,000. In her words, "I wouldn't get out of bed for less than £70,000".

By the way, "account executive" as a job title is just a bullshit sales job. Same as account manager, sales executive, and so on. They make up their own job titles and they pick fancy-sounding ones so they can impress the people they're trying to sell to. My old job had someone who was "account director", which we weren't happy about because legally, in the UK, if you are a "director" in a limited company then that means something very specific, and she is not a director. Her boss was the Head of Sales, which is the opposite of how it's meant to go with that job title. I think it might even be illegal for her job title to say "director" when she isn't one. But she was allowed to keep it because apparently it impresses people. It's all bullshit.

>>108288500
I would take the job. You say you graduated in November 2024; I got my psychology degree in 2008 and was still getting minimum wage selling printer toner in 2014. And if it's minimum wage, fuck 'em, you can just quit if you don't like driving there every day. The only reason you're scared is because everyone always is. There's nothing actually scary about this job, so stop being a faggot bitch.

I do have manual tester experience but so far applying for QA jobs has GIVEN ME NOTHING. just take home tests after take home test. Interviews once every 50 jobs. Im sick of applying and interviewing. Im sick of unable to tell myself "buddy you got a job now, you got money, nobody shit on you for being unemployed, do what you want on weekends". Im just scared if i got laid off from this job i would get unemployed for months again because all i care about is studying japanese and drawing.

I was assuming the alternative to accepting the offer was to keep interviewing for whatever. I don't know what you're interviewing for.

If you don't want to interview more, nobody is holding a gun to your head anon. Just take the job and get on with your life.

Nobody here has a magic button to make money to live off of here, and, if they did, they sure as hell wouldn't share it.

no I was a SWE. every other third party API requires you to generate and keep current security certificates that ensure you're the one using their endpoints. and for some reason they all expire after 1/2 years and stick you on the renewal.

>>108289282
One of the first rules of IT support is to always estimate the maximum amount of time, because customers will be happy if you finish before then but they'll be furious if you take longer than you estimate. Also, when I got called to do out-of-hours work at my old job, my boss would always tell me to clean these fuckers out and take as much money as I could from our incompetent shiftless owners. So that's at least two reasons why you should have said three hours. Certificates sometimes take a long time to arrive, remember. Especially if you bought them from Enom like we always did.

The crappiest company outsourcing for Japan I applied for as a last-resort ticket in my shithole country just rejected me once I disclosed to them I had no degree. I thought they were supposed to give me another chance given that they scheduled on another call, thinking in retrospect is to realize it's just bureaucracy. Now I have to keep searching for jobs but this can only get harder. I'm 25 now and I live in a judgy rural bumpkin countryside that already spread whispers about how I still stay home for a year. Perhaps I should just go to the city and find any job at all to get away from this place. That's not the worst part, I have applied for so many companies already, many of them rejected or ghosted me and those that did were just hard to pass the tests or interviews. How do I cope with this?

So I found a job listing that seems perfect for me. I'm going to save up with my part time job to get my next cert, spend a few weeks studying the subjects on the listing, blog some more about relevant homelab projects, and tailor my resume. I figure there's a good chance I won't get it, but I'll be better prepared for a similar role.

Over status?

>>108290655
This edit irritates me to no end.
It should be "It's over factory", not "Over Factory". Also, this meme is overal poorlu suited for this idea in general. This is a meme for long days.

Any anons want have any experience with Rembrandt Portrait exam? Even the slightest tidbits would be helpful. Thanks in advance

They're gonna deploy capital soon that's gonna be great. When they start printing they start hiring.

>>108290950
Just a basic personality exam anon.
>Do you like working in a team?

Yadda, yadda, yadda, you get the deal

I think its slightly funnier to think about a factory that manufactures overs vs not-overs but that's just me.

got invited to stationary interview for some shitty erp related job, know nothing about erp aside from vrchat

I remember when i was still working on a company, i would receive 1-4 job offers messaged to me on linkedin. 2 of them always turns out to be fake or remote hell. There are also remote hell, you know? Thats when i was updating my LinkedIn during internship. When i stopped working there, the job offers never came again.

There used to be some data annotation gigs that paid $15-20/h for my locale which was high, especially compared to the local CoL. Now the most generous paying remote model assessing job I can find is $9/h. Foreign companies must have learned how to set the apt prices for poor countries.

>Seemingly unemployable for reasons unknown
>Looking for shit to do to be productive and shitpost about on LinkedIn
>Figure I'll get qualified in every DoD 8140 role
>Find out a bunch of them are locked behind websites you need a CAC for
fuck, yet another reason I should have joined the Reserve after I left active duty. Anyway I hold Advanced in 15 roles, and should expand that to 27 within a month or so. This is all a joke anyway, my time would be better spent playing videogames and then blowing my brains out.

For me its working out. Vidya is piss boring now. Everything is being handcrafted to appease these same useless fuck normies that make the tech industry what it is today

>>108284479
Ooh okay, well it doesn’t really seem worth it desu, but if you want the experience, then that’s fine. It just seems like you’ll spend more than you gain

I just had an idea, let's all band together and create our own company, who is with me?

>>108292068
I will make the slogan

I hate americans, you guys can always join the military meanwhile our military takes 3 years to call you back

>>108292068

>>108292091
>legally not allowed to join the military because im too old (30+) even though i can body 95% of the <30 y.o. population no contest
It’s just like the tech industry

>>108292143
>im too old (30+) even though i can body 95% of the <30 y.o. population no contest
I have made it my life mission to not be a resentful, delusional boomer retard once I get old
It's all of you. Literally all of you. How the fuck is everyone over 30 so retarded and insufferable?

>>108292179
I have no idea what made you crash out but i could kill you with my bare hands with nothing you could about it, emaciated zoom zoom

>>108292143
You can still enlist/commission in the US over 30 though? Nothing stopping you aside from potentially a waiver (and youre not gonna be a marine or pilot)

I see quite a few network engineer job listings where I'm at but don't really know much about it. Anyone knows how such jobs are like and what they do?

>Recruiter calls me
>Hey, we got this opening for [some bullshit title] at [company I used to work for and hated] for the [biggest shitshow in the company] program
Well I don't think I'll get this job, but if I do, fuck it I'll take it

>>108290117
>You must be like 40 by now. How much do you make each month?
Zero. I'm unemployed. That's why I'm in this thread.

>>108292662
I did an interview a week ago, on Wednesday. The guy said, "We have one more person to interview, but you should have an answer by tomorrow at the latest." I got an email to schedule a second interview today. People with jobs are the laziest niggers on the planet.

>>108294081
>People with jobs are the laziest niggers on the planet.
Yes, they are.

>>108293448
It's a very generic job title so it will depend a lot on the company. I would expect you to be putting servers and switches and firewalls into server racks, plugging in all the cables between each of them, and configuring the ports on the switches so everything works. Like all jobs, there will be lengthy instructions saying, "Type INT gi0/1/1 then type NO SHUTDOWN" that anybody on the planet could follow, but you would probably still need a load of qualifications that you only need so you can prove you're not a gigaretard.

If it's not that, you'll probably be digging up roads and splicing fibre-optic cable for broadband providers.

My last "network engineering" job was repetitive data collection on hundreds of sites using CDP neighbor. On day 2 i started trying to automate it and by day 14 it was doing my job and i basically did nothing for 2 years straight

>part time shift as a service worker at a wedding venue
>boss tells me ill get paid 1.5x the usual rate today but i need to work 6 hours extra (10 am -> 12 am)
>okay whatever
>get here
>it's another jewish wedding
it's not even about the pay this time, these fuckers are all subhuman pieces of shit

Once I finally attain a job, I’ll finally be able to relax and enjoy my vidya…..

Right, anons?
