I am just finishing my master degree. And I have been applying all over, thinking it would be piece of cake since I have excellent grades and some internships at good companies. Then you go out and during interviews it really feels like they are not trying to find reasons why you would fit the job, but rather try to find things that disqualify you. Or how you are not experienced enough or we found someone more experienced when it's for a fucking junior position with 0 years of experience. But the most bullshit reasons for me are when you talk to people working there and asked them why they chose this company or this role blabla. And you think yeh I agree, so during the interview you use them. And then later you get a call, yeh we did not like your answer to those questions.

Struggling to get into work. Every advert wants Python/SQL/Tableaux/PowerBI programmimg skills blah blah. You might be surprised that a lot of what you the young people on here are saying sounds familiar to an old guy like me. There is a massive hidden job recession happening. I have had all the same excuses given to me for not getting a job. At least you young guys haven't yet had the experience of a Big Four global consultancy admitting they had advertised a salary above the level they intend to recruit at and then suggest they might give me an interview if I was willing to pre agree I would accept a graduate level salary with 35 years experience. No thanks. I have actually trained McKinsey graduates! 🙄

Super relatable!! What was the track/song you have as your outro? Sounds groovy

THIS IS EXACTLY RIGHT ON IT'S SCARY.

One question cross over db, devops and frontend, just absolute amazing

I literally have placements from July idk how Imma survive in the current situation 💀

Oh man, this is totally how I feel these days. The startup I work at lost funding and I've been in search for about 2 months now though already have over 6 years of experience. Companies are either completely ignoring or saying that went with someone else or say that position was paused/canceled. Starting to lose hope that I'll find a remote job with a fair compensation again in the near future. It's really depressing but your video makes fun of this situation well.

Fair compensation... LOL. Tech workers are way overpaid. You'll have to accept a value that is more on par with other fields. Tech is going to be absolutely saturated. Everyone and their grandma is entering the field. There's a huge line of people willing do your job for far cheaper!

@@billr5842 then good luck doing it for cheaper :) Spending your free time learning another of billion libraries, concepts, patterns and frameworks while customer or manager keeps fucking your brain out with unreasonable requests or dealing with some complicated bullshit. If 5000$ for a senior position in your view is overpaid while I was making nearly half as much just washing dishes as a student in the US then I don't know how you imagine to live your life.

@@BlindDespair They are... that's why salaries are going down and youre having trouble finding a job lol. There TONs of people lining up to do these jobs and they can learn the material. People in foreign countries are very hungry too. AI is growing which will further squeeze things. I don't even work in tech and I know how to program with c/c++/python lol. This happens to many fields. Are you talking $5000/year? Wtf? That is pretty low lol. I work in healthcare and make good money

@@BlindDespair 60k per year is pretty fair for a programmer in my eyes and I believe the market will reflect that soon too. I'm decent at programming not an expert, but it's extremely boring and tedious so I didn't pursue it more. With more dedicated time I could be proficient pretty quick and be employable. Thankfully I don't have to worry about that and I can do it as a hobby

I applied to a job once where I got through to the final round. Then the company told me that they just went with an internal hire. B**** probably knew they were going to do that the whole time, they were just wasting my time.

@@TheShaolin015 apparently, some HR rules require the external posting of job openings as a matter of policy even when internally they have already selected the hire. So yes, it ends up wasting a lot of people's time for no good reason.

@@elenchus Well, retards want socialism and fairness and other bs. Retards demand evil companies to hire "fair" and vote for it. Companies pretend to hire "fair" because government told them so Retards always get what they want. And they always cry about it after the fact.

Aint no way thats a real interview. The graphql question is too easy 😑
