honestly i feel like im never gonna find another job bcus i feel like im visibly autistic and i got stuck in this shitty job that's kinda low code and the only actual programming i do is sql. i had 1(one) interview recently where they were super enthusiastic and then ghosted after.. idk if its bcus i came off too awkward or i said something wrong or its bcus i havent finished my degree yet?? fucking sucks
Many such cases
(not trans, so I’ll delete if I’m overstepping here)
I have been in many job interviews, on both sides of the table. I have found zero correlation to interviewer enthusiasm or vibes from them, and whether I get an offer. I’ve had interviews that I thought went terribly that later made me an offer. I’ve had other interviews where they act like they’re the lucky ones that I’m considering working for them, but I hear nothing after.
As an interviewer, there’s been lots of times I’ve been enthusiastic about someone as much as I try to have a poker face, and I want to make them an offer but my boss or someone higher up looks at the resume and squashes the whole thing over something kinda petty. Or the funding dries up shortly after and we can’t hire anyone. Or we get really busy and hiring someone is the last thing on my mind for weeks just because I’m trying to hold everything else with my job together.
Hope that helps.
it does thanks :) it's so difficult though never knowing what i have to change
Yeahhhh I stopped getting callbacks after I started presenting
Had an interviewer make me read Bible verses then only say "I don't know if you'll get along with the executives" with no added explanation
I hope my degree will help
If there’s a God they’ll grant me sainthood for not going out and killing bosses after reading shit like this
