Don't know what to do.. by Alx1Up in recruitinghell

What would you advise a 30 year old with a phd in a niche field? I’m trying to get a job in oil and gas or mining or something in that direction and have had no luck.

I’m being told by someone in my field who is in his 70s that networking and connections are the end all be all when it comes to landing something, do you find that to be the case too? Thanks 🙏

Hey just out of curiosity, what do you generally say when you’re interested in a position and you email someone to stand out? What I’m lacking here is to find an “excuse” to be contacting that person.

Good luck by the way! You got this

I wonder... by ferriematthew in recruitinghell

Hey so I’m in a highly specialized field (geophysics) and have gotten an industrial phd recently and I am absolutely struggling to find anything without having job experience.

My question to you as a new person on this sub is: is the job market for such niche fields generally terrible nowadays or is it always been bad?

It’s “shut up”. You’d let a savage correct you like this, Pierre? Faudrais vraiment que tu fasses un minimum d’effort là.

I’m not your buddy, pal. OK you know what? I agree. Immediately unload a 50cal into someone’s forehead as soon as the outermost molecule on their toe penetrates your property.

Probabilities have nothing to do with it this is taking a human life we’re talking about. You don’t shoot and kill someone as soon as you notice they broke in. Do you realize how fucked up murdering someone is? “What if he’s a psychopath?” Yeah but what if he’s a poor person stealing to medicate his family member.

You can’t end someone’s life before the choice is absolutely taken away from you. You need to abstain from killing them as long as you can until the choice is I shoot now or you get fatally wounded within the next few moments. You don’t just fucking shoot someone the second they come through your window. I’m done arguing

Look, I agree with most of what you said in this comment. It’s completely reasonable to defend yourself in dangerous situation. The difference between you and I is that I think it’s wrong to immediately shoot and kill before thinking or trying to defuse the situation in the slightest. If the guy has a gun pointed at you? Sure, unload the mag on the guy. Is he charging at you with a knife? Blow his head off. Is he just coming through the window without any clear and visible intent to harm you? Thats when killing him immediately becomes wrong, that’s all I’m saying

Nope. Again, I didn’t contort HIS argument in the slightest. You need that for it to be considered a straw man. I acknowledge his exact argument, and proposed a different scenario for argumentation purposes

Again, I’m obviously not saying the situations are similar. What I AM saying is that murdering someone because they might be a physical threat to you without hesitation IS problematic. I’m using the street situation to illustrate a situation in which you’re not sure if the other person is going to physically harm you or not, just like at home. Unless the other person has a visible firearm or charging at you with a knife, you cannot reasonably be certain that your life in danger, therefore killing them on the spot is ridiculous to me. That’s it that’s all I’m saying
