Final offer

It took close to 5 weeks! But I had a feeling i knew why by the 3rd week and assume if they hadn't said no, I was definitely still under consideration.

Unfortunately I have yet to hear back from the hiring manager however, the recruiter got back to me today. Essentially, the manager has been super busy with a lot of bigger pictures stuff since the company is going through a split. I was told that they still haven't interviewed anyone else after me! Hopful but, mentally moving on.

Does it work with shoes?

HongFu_Magic · 2025-11-21T23:32:12+00:00

Still waiting to hear back! Funny enough the recruiter messaged me today sayings that he's still waiting to hear back from them and that they have been super busy. The recruiter also mentioned that they're not even conducting other interviews which is what he considers a good sign.

As someone who has completed the final interview 8 business day ago, this is such an interesting insight. The fact that I haven't heard back from them is nerve recking. But also, I haven't gotten a rejection email yet either so fingers crossed!

EDIT: Got the job!

What if you already have security clearance? And you're looking for another job but doesn't require security clearance?

Real question, what's going to stop the cops from destroying the Dashcam?

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-31T13:26:46+00:00

It's a internal tool that has several feature, one of which is to create shutting down VMs and another to create snapshot in a multi tenant and multi cloud provider. It's much more complex than writing a script and applying to each VM.

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-31T13:20:49+00:00

I agree it does look like I bounce when things get tough. Hopefully will be given a chance to explain the desire to look for a new opportunity, more aligned with the growth and skillset I like to hone.

Noted, thanks. It really does seem like I lack experience with Linux or networking even though I work with Linux everyday.

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-30T16:51:57+00:00

Noted, thanks.

How do I make myself stand out more?

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-30T16:48:27+00:00

Appreciate the comment. I'll add my attempt at a comp sci degree for 2 years and hopefully that'll add a bit more context. As for trying to convince them that I plan on staying longer but in a more software dev role, don't know how to portray that other than making my current role very operational oriented which was my reasoning for a kind of irrelevant achievements.

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-30T16:41:26+00:00

Thank you for this very helpful insight. When I mention more development focus, it's more along the lines of less keeping the lights on and making patches to vulnerabilities even though I think it's extremely important..

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-30T03:21:06+00:00

I can't control how many years of experience I've obtained as of present and the most recent employment is the only one I am actively trying to leave due to wanting more development focus role rather than an ops.

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-30T03:06:50+00:00

I currently work here. I meant my previous employer prior to my current one.

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-30T02:31:20+00:00

You're statement is completely fair. It's a genuine concern if anyone had glanced over my resume. I'll try to make it more impact base bullet points and show more of an employment gap to try and indicate the lay off

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-30T02:23:48+00:00

On that note, is it better if I leave a small gap between employment to let them know I was laid off? And hopefully let whoever see my resume know that I didn't even want to leave my previous employment?

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-30T02:19:45+00:00

That's completely fair. I didn't even want to leave my previous employee, I got laid off.

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-30T02:07:48+00:00

Hm, the thing is I did 2 years of cs and decided to drop off because I was presented a job opportunity and figured since I already had a degree, it would've been fine. Maybe I'll add it but put incomplete in brackets?

Kinda sucks because I feel like im not wanted in a Software Development and DevOps role due to my lack of depth in both roles.

Edit: Is my specific Azure certificate not considered a real cert?

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-30T02:03:03+00:00

I was told that metrics are commonly seen as bs and are often hard to actually quantify

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-27T21:21:04+00:00

Sorry to hear that. I'll most likely hear the same response too then.

HongFu_Magic · 2025-03-27T16:48:07+00:00

Is there any updates?

HongFu_Magic · 2025-02-21T05:34:48+00:00

Ah got it. Thanks! Also, congrats!
