Yeah, I've never understood this. I usually mass apply once a week, but even then I rarely hit 30. Though my skillset is kind of niche. I've been considering going wild and spamming applications to goddamn everything to see what happens, but I'm too lazy for that.

I keep getting bested by zoomers who are barely out of college (or in some cases, still in college). Granted I've only had less than 2 years of full-time experience and an EE degree, it's still humiliating because I'm 28 years old.

That's something I've noticed. Bitch-tier IT jobs, like I have done for the past decade, used to be decent enough and pay better than your average job. Now, you can't pay a company to hire you. Jobs that do literally nothing pay better than jobs where you need to know how DNS works. Being able to use Linux actually makes you poorer, career-wise. When did that happen?

I've recently started an entry level job as an analyst and am not sure if this is normal. Most of my team members seem to not do anything else in life but work when it doesn't seem like they have to. They'll stay online until 8-9pm every day and work more over the weekend. Several of them have 'joked' that they literally do nothing else than wake up, work late, and go to bed, and they seem miserable.

I wanted to get ahead of a project I've been assigned because I'm still learning and a bit slower than everyone else so decided to do a few hours of work today (it's technically a holiday) and had almost 100 Teams messages from up until late Friday, Saturday from noon-ish to 10pm and most of yesterday. I only log onto teams on my work laptop so didn't see any of these but team members were @ me as if they expected me to see it and log on. None of the work mentioned was extremely urgent or mission critical and nothing we do is going to make or break the company.

Not to say that my work isn't important, and I'll work a bit extra if I need to finish what I'm assigned by the deadline, but being on my work laptop at 6pm on a Saturday because a routine job failed or there was a bug seems ridiculous to me. I've had more difficult jobs where I worked 60-80 hours a week and my quality of life was horrible. I really like the head of my department and he has never expressed that extra hours are expected of me. Is this normal? It seems like my team is the only one that works like this. I never get communication outside of M-F 8AM-5PM from anyone else. I also really need this job and can't afford to leave.

You get out what you put in. You're not putting in much, and neither are any of the other 900 applicants from all over the world. Even if you are a perfect fit for the job, how many CVs from India and Bangladesh and Nigeria do you expect the HR woman who works for 40 minutes a day from home to actually read before she just picks someone at random? The jobs are probably real, at least some of the time (definitely not always), but your chances of getting one of these jobs are literally lottery-tier.

The individual engineers have pushed back on this to the middle managers, but the middle managers who raise this to the boss get removed. I would jump ship but I have not been able to find a decent enough replacement position

Its all so tiresome

Try websites like Indeed that don't let you Easy Apply. Everything else that I have tried, didn't work (applying to all companies within two miles of my house, all those shit jobs that demand you create a profile and manually enter all your details, etc).

urgent time for an engie-only group chat so you can all salvage contacts and help eachother to new jobs a little too when SHTF.

>be the ass for absolutely everything

kek

No.

>>108911949
nta but the problem is that it almost always mean picking up a whole stack of someone else's shite writting in shitlangs, founded on shitlibs.
if there was a huge amount of fullstack but e.g. Lisp-only jobs that'd be awesome, but at best you get fullstack JS.

the keyboard clackers rode a wave of WaUw IT and CoDiNg is SoO AmAziNg for a decade but now everybody understands that they don't add any value, help nobody and their """tech""" is still fucking broken most of the time, doesn't work outright or has little annoyances that drive normal people crazy.
the curtain has fallen. keyboard clackers need to get actual jobs now.

*js + html + css + css framework + build system + some extra bullshit like amp
if it isn't bizslop like magento

>>108912001
One of my coworkers has a mechanical keyboard and it's absolutely unbearable to hear him clack non fucking stop. Tempted to fill it with syrup or something when he's on break so he has to get rid of it.

>>108912607
acts of workplace sabotage are unproductive and often ill advised.

>>108913001
So is driving your workers postal.

>>108912607
that'd be vandalizing your colleague's personal property. wouldn't recommend.
you could get him a set of dampening rings for mechanical keyboards, you should be able to find that for about $5.

>have a job interview with a contractor for NASA
>pay is shit
Ugh

>>108913925
do you get to put nasa on your resume if you get the job?

>>108913940
I mean, yeah
I probably couldn't put it directly but i could put "contracted by NASA"

Doing some data analysis project out of desperation and Excel is kinda fun

>>108911019
I actually customize it for each position I apply to, I'm spending like 8 hours a day customizing and applying to positions

>>108914465
And the AI parser will still bin it automatically

I can’t do this anymore. Nobody even sees my applications. It’s like throwing them straight into the trash. It’s futile.

>>108913158
People who buy those obnoxious keyboards do it solely to be as loud and intrusive as possible to everybody around them. They WANT others to hear that stupid fucking CLACK CLACK CLACK every key stroke.

Why does plebbit say you need to study between 40 to 60 hours a week as a CompSci major? That's excluding lectures. These niggas are insane. How am I supposed to do that with a part time job (forced by my parents)? 2 hours imo should be enough per day. What's the realistic numbers of average hours to study per day for CompSci?

>>108915036
Really if you didn't start programming at 12 you're fucked

>>108914996
nah, I was that guy and just made it quiter when my colleague complained. it was a keyboard I got for myself bc it looked cool and I wanted very very non-mushy keys on muh nice kehhberd.

As someone who was told at every turn by an autistic IT nigger "lmao i have no such issues", sorry lads but get fucked
>Underemployed
How is that a real thing? If you're in IT and you get to work IT at a reasonable wage, you're employed. Underemployment is engineers flipping hot dogs.

I read of "overemployed" retards on >leddit constantly. IT niggers occupying 5 jobs from home, basically just waiting to get fired from each of them to then get a new. One "good" techie occupying 5 jobs that could feed 5 families.

I wish you all the misery youre clearly in.

>>108889609
>Nooo my life is OVER i'm almost 30!!
Once you pass the great three-o, a switch flips and you're happy as you realize how long life is. You've got a degree and education in tech. get busy teaching yourself or you deserve never going anywhere. a friend of mine quit driving trains, spent 8 months going into debt for a programming course and then he found employment in the government

Any UK man in?

Last week I got positive feedback from an interview, pay was lower than I'd like but the people I interviewed with seemed cool. They haven't got back to me yet though so maybe no offer will come. I dunno what I'll do if I get properly filtered out of tech.

I’m proud to work for free. Thanks to the opportunity they gave me, I learned how to use Excel, worked with logs, and picked up how to use a couple of software tools.

In return, they take care of the paperwork and support my education.

>>108917181
Paying for education in return for labor is not free labor. That is a great arrangement and I hope it works out well for you

I got a job without a degree but my friend with a masters can't get one, we both started applying at the same time, same companies even, we would share interview questions, etc. For this one he didn't even make it past screening, how do I help him cope?

under-covers couch handjob whilst watching movie

im putting in my 2 weeks at my underemployment job and going back to unemployment. I cant take it anymore. I am more miserable than at any point in my life and i cant stop thinking about suicide. im getting 3-4 hours of sleep each night and the pay is terrible. after commute expenses and taxes i end up making $14 an hour. i dont care about paying back some fucking jews. let my credit score tank.

should i learn react bootstrap or just do the css best (a)i can?

>>108918867
>should I learn something AI already fully replaced or something AI already fully replaced

>>108918867
Learn COBOL
Day of the Dementia will soon descend upon all the boomers who actually know how to use it

Is it actually a viable strategy to just wait?
I don't think I'm getting hired for anything in this job market. My unemployment gap is huge already, it's not like I'm making my prospects worse by waiting for things to change.

>>108919743
terrible idea. just keep applying and learning new things
