A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

In my last job search, I sent out more than a thousand applications across multiple industries, got one interview, didn't get the job. It's very plausible.

What platform were you searching on?

[–] 30p87@feddit.org 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Multiple ones, and directly through people I know.

Yeah, I've just gotten to the point of trying to network instead of applying for things that don't exist.
