I’ve re-invented myself, presented myself in the best way possible. My 12 years of work experience + masters degree don’t seem to be paying off. I got referrals, interviewed for 4 months, several redesigns of my resume + cover letter + LinkedIn. I don’t need a visa sponsorship to work in the U.S. and I live in New York City. What worked for you when you were hopeless & demotivated? How did you finally get a job? #tech #design #business
I’m on the same boat. But for me I’m on the junior/mid level so it seems impossible right now.
Seize our future. Anything is possible, yes you can
I’m 1 YOE after career switching to swe. It has been hard for sure for lower YOE people. Pays cuts inc
Don’t give up. Why not apply for military contractors and or govt labs? I thought they are looking for ppl and the interview process isn’t even that hard
Everything happens for a reason, you will land BIG!
You will find something really nice my friend. I know its very difficult to have a positive outlook during tough times but this will be over soon.
Either you’re not as good as you thought you were, OR you applied to the roles for someone extremely good at what they are doing.
It’s a lot of luck and a bit of skill to land a job. Just keep at it.
This. There’s a huge luck component I feel like people don’t talk enough about.
What do you mean by re-invented yourself? I wonder if that’s what’s causing the issue. Anyway good luck and hopefully you sort it out.
Definitely it’s more difficult to find a job than before. I’m not laid off but interview sometimes. Though I performed well, companies still don’t move forward to the virtual onsite interview
Luck plays a huge factor, hang in there!
What roles you looking for? Care to share?
