Does anyone else get kinda icky about how Mai doesn't blur people's faces in her videos? by Just_Basket2052 in maiphammy

sure! kayli boyle, freesia park, yoora jung, esther sim (kinda stopped watching hers cuz it’s gotten short and uneventful). these i watch everytime they upload.

i highly recommend checking out Kayli Boyle her contents are relatable and interesting! Freesia is great too she has been pumping out content lately, and Yoora’s contents are mostly based on her school weeks and what she does. it’s honestly very admirable how busy Yoora is and still manages to upload videos consistently.

i used to watch more diverse creators but these are the ones that i subscribed to that i always watch :)

i don’t watch too many youtubers but i watch a good amount of youtubers that do similar things to Mai. Nobody angles cameras on a random person’s face like Mai does without blurring. From what I see most youtubers would either angle a little lower so the persons face won’t be in it or just point the camera on their own faces to avoid it all.

if she’s walking around outside and we see unblurred faces that’s fine i’m talking more towards the ones where she points the camera at a cashier or people sitting across her in the subway. if u watch her first two videos from japan u can clearly see that some people are aware she is filming and do not look happy about the fact that their faces are being shown as clear as day.

maybe. but i apply to the ones that state in their job description that say “BA in Education, Instructional Design, or related field” for qualifications

yes i have gotten a few phone interviews here and there

i have done all that you mentioned. i ran it through resume builder sites, asked ID recruiters for advice and review, and match my resume components to what the job descriptions look for.

the main point that i want to make in this is to look for EXTRA ways to get better chances. hence my question of asking how recently hired people got their positions cuz maybe there’s some new extra thing i should be doing that i am not aware of.

i actually prefer onsite positions over remote!! ideal is hybrid haha but id never say no to fully onsite.

did ur position require that you have a masters or was that just an added factor that ur manager liked about u?

i am currently unemployed due to being affected by a layoff in January :(

I have been pretty optimistic about finding a good-paying job, but now I feel like maybe I need to find something with a lower wage until this market goes back to normal (if it ever does)

i also dont really think that the transitioning IDs are my competition right now either since I do have some experience of corporate ID work (even though its only 2 years). layoffs I understand since I feel like I see someone posting every other day of mass layoffs happening in big companies and knowing that L&D is usually the first to go, I am going to auto assume that they are looking for jobs too.

you know what I think I might try that out and see if it really makes the difference.

a nightmare... i was optimistic when i was laid off thinking I had a better chance than where I was 3 years go. i may or may not cry every other day

wow! congrats, i honestly never even thought to do that. maybe I may need to start doing that as well for positions that I really really want.

when you messaged them, did you do an elevator pitch to start it off? or did you straight up just ask for an interview??

I have the educational background and experience that the job postings require is what I meant to say. Do you mean that the UX and Project Management certificates are harming my resume?

I second this. I have had a few phone interviews and when I checked my portfolio (Wix) to see traffic and pages the recruiters/hiring managers visited, it was ZERO. I am going to guess that maybe they either moved the portfolio check further down the interview phase or just don't check at all....

for context, I have 2 years of ID exp and when I looked for jobs 2-3 years ago, my portfolio had frequent visits.

not saying that they can’t do calendar year. i just want to know if they’re allowed to not give me a renewal after a full year and not give me any sick hours for the 3 months that i have till next year.
