new interview questions "can you walk on water?"

@jameshaley6939

Thanks for being honest.  So many fake videos on YouTube still giving people false hope.

@blakelmj

Job market is like Tinder right now. Recruiters are always searching for a unicorn who knows every tool that their company uses. I had an interview through a consultant where I answered 9/10 questions and their feedback was that I don't anything about python. I call B.S.

@Faradaybear

Graduated back in 2023 with a BS computer engineering, at this point I'm willing to hunger games for an entry level position ;-;

@williamgregory1848

Job: “For this entry level position that pays $55,000 a year, we’re looking for those with a master’s degree, 10 years of experience, 8 references, can solve world hunger and is already employed here.”

@rainierdigitalsolutions

Took two years and like 500+ applications to finally get a role.

Tech isn't a career. Tech is a series of temp jobs before you go get a job stocking shelves at the grocery store.

@KBlade1

In 2021, everyone was actually hiring😂 There's some phony bologna spit going on in 2024.

@AudibleKingdom

Omg bro you really hit right on the nose. In 2021 I thought I was in top of the world and recruiters were practically begging … fast forward till now not only cannot get a job employers want 27 years experience and pay 48k a year to have knowledge in 35 different tech stacks

@AColonDashSix

Entry lvl position: we need 5 years experience 

Me: I have more than five years experience

Manager: still no.

@ballerina3483

I already saw that coming the way companies were pushing for people to enter software engineering. We really thought they are not going to come after our bread.

@giotti333

Sorry everyone, but it’s time to wake up. The tech industry as it was between 2007 and 2022 is gone for the foreseeable future, and it won't return anytime soon—at least not for a period longer than you can afford to be unemployed. There are moments when it's time to make a change, switch industry, and that time is now. Even if someone manages to land a job, there’s no guarantee the company won’t downscale in six months. With money being tight, the tech sector is returning to the job demand levels of around 8–9 years ago.

@redlotuslove1

Ok so I'm not the only one.😂😢

@mehlover

Man, i switched back into learning programming during the pandemic, and now i feel like i got played. Because what seemed like a "safe" and "secure" job with a high job market now comes crashing down

@StuffedCrows

They kept telling everyone to "get a real degree" now look what happened. As soon as the supply outstrips the demand there isnt any difference between a fine art and comp sci degree

@StayHardened

Amen to that… it’s a horrible job market these days

@hashh2019

within 2 years everything would go upside down? who knew?

@keyblade287

At this point I’m considering joining the army lol

@varunmanjunath6204

Honestly it’s easier starting a business than getting a job
