This is one of the most tone-deaf and disgusting things this person has said. And that says a lot, considering how much tone-deaf and disgusting things this guy says.
Yeah my husband got laid off in the tech sector after 10+ years at a company and has been looking for a job every day since January. He’d love to get off his ass and get working.
I was under the impression software engineering, despite the layoffs, was still a pretty liquid market.
I went to pick up an order at Walmart not too long ago (months), and the guy who brought it out was chatting me up. Apparently, he's a software engineer, but could only find work at Walmart.
I think it’s difficult because companies know they can hire someone with 2 years of experience to do similar work.
In his experience a lot of the job postings are not real or have hundreds and hundreds of applicants and multiple rounds of interviews. I’m not quite sure how to help and I’m trying to be patient and go easy on him. It shouldn’t be this hard.
Tech, from my experience, has a lot of job postings, but its very difficult to actually get an interview nonetheless a job. I'm not entirely sure why its so difficult, as there does seem to be a pretty big need for it across the board. My best guess is mix of companies needing employees but not being willing to hire/train them leading to "fake" postings (alongside those just meant for data collection), and just a generally competitive market right now.
The economy seems to be extremely slow and everyone that looks for a job, regardless of the field, have problems.
This is anecdotal, but I usually get the typical recruiter in my inbox twice or month at least, but lately, I don't have any. It usually means less hiring.
It is kinda sad when voting feels like we’re putting the lesser devil in the office instead of voting to get what’s better for society, but god damn is that important too! Go vote people!
What a shocking thing to hear from the guy who plugged a coffee chain's new sandwich while thousands of people died thanks to his criminal mishandling of COVID.
