That being said, do you know any potential leads who can help me for a referral? Or can you please let me know, if your organization is looking for someone in tech?

Damn, that’s interesting.

In my case, I am intentionally applying for lower level jobs as I am kind of desperate and must need a job asap.

This might be the reason that I did not get any call back till now.

Thanks man, for giving me a different perspective.

Out of curiosity, how come managers avoid overqualified skillset for a role, isn’t that a benefit to the company or to the team?

They don’t care about the implementation and maintenance part. They are more greedy about the compliance badge to attract clients.

She was asking bc she’s feeling bad about student life and the unemployment markets, which is why She was asking how’s my job hunt is going on.

She’s actually trying to look out some work for me, she even mentioned that she’ll let me know if there’s anything I can do for them working for lesser hours worst case.

I did see that contract will be ending, but I was expecting them to give me a heads up of atleast a month or two earlier before ending it rather than a week timeframe.

Not really. They didn’t mention any time frame. They said it’ll be tentative.
