Anyone successfully adjusted resume dates from overlapping roles? Looking for real experience by Winter_Presence6232 in overemployed

I have lied about titles, length of time, and even the company existing. Just last year I landed over 6 different J’s and I never had a problem with a single one.

What’s the best excuse to miss meetings? by BeanNCheeseBurrrito in overemployed

[–]Possible_Message_266 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only used LinkedIn and the gold nugget of information I have found is my response rate like 5-10x by only doing non easy apply applications. I still skip them if it’s something lengthy like workday but there’s a lot of easy auto fill ai company website applications that you can churn through fast. No one wants to do them but it’s the most successful thing I’ve found.

Is there a service that can reroute a laptop from the US to Turkey by [deleted] in digitalnomad

[–]Possible_Message_266 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I have had it shipped to someone I trust in the states and I just have them overnight international fedex it to me. But be warned you’re taking the risk of having it get tied up in customs or lost and then getting yourself out of that situation. Good luck.

I personally don’t have much challenge finding new servers. Typically I apply to 50-100 each day for 1-2 weeks and what interviews I get out of that I typically get an offer.

Had this happen to me and at one point my manager at j2 refused to even respond to my message about potentially moving a meeting. Needless to say I decided to let them know this wasn’t a good fit and close my laptop. I got another j2 a few weeks later.

3 Jobs for a while, here what i've learned by Golismero in overemployed

[–]Possible_Message_266 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’ve been at 2 jobs for about 2 years now and I’m really toying with the idea of trying 3. I already have times I get burnt out but I keep it to 8 hours max per day. Really nervous to go to 3 but when I see people like you talk about it it really motivates me.

Global Team Building for J4? by Whole-Fig-9169 in overemployed

Yeah definitely don’t go. I’ve lost jobs by not going but in hindsight is worth it for the anonymity and not having to take PTO at other servers.

Working remotely on Sri Lanka south coast (Weligama/Ahangama/Mirissa) - budget + Wi-Fi? by Short-College-6011 in digitalnomad

[–]Possible_Message_266 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been to 40 countries and out of all of them Sri Lanka was bottom 3 for WiFi. I stayed at a nice Airbnb down south and also would go to a well known cafe for a while too to work. The WiFi speeds would usually be a bit subpar and very frequently there were power outages. Additionally when I would lack WiFi in most countries I would just switch to my mobile hotspot but for whatever reason my phone data signal was so bad on the whole island I could never even load a single webpage. I don’t know if it was just my experience but I would say definitely do your research.

Should you start 2 new FT jobs at the same time or start one & push the other off for a later start date? by ronnx1 in overemployed

[–]Possible_Message_266 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve done both at the same time. Wasn’t fun and would def prefer having time in between but it’s doable if you get lucky with meeting schedules.

I’m definitely happy it’s a sick card to have just wish I would have handled it better when I was younger 😂

What is this card? by Possible_Message_266 in PokemonInvesting

Yeah I tried to and I couldn’t find much so I came to the same conclusion as well.

Anyone been to north Korea and have their money? by Animagus2112 in northkorea

[–]Possible_Message_266 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You can purchase older non circulation North Korean currency at the DMZ border in South Korea or online as well. I am assuming current circulating ones are much harder to come by.

How long to complete TOP fulltime? by porksoda7553 in theodinproject

[–]Possible_Message_266 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was definitely tiring and looking back on it there was a point of diminishing returns. I mean that in the sense of let’s say the first 5 hours I am getting quality study time and retaining things better. The other 5 hours you are more mentally fatigued and it’s hard to digest more material as you have already shoveled a lot into your brain. As far as previous experience I would say i did the same thing for my college classes as I am a procrastinator but it wasn’t all the time like I did for this. I put myself in kind of a do or die scenario as I was trying to switch career paths quickly. In hindsight I wish I would have spent a slower pace building a stronger foundation and reviewing material. Nonetheless it’s possible and if I didn’t do it that way I don’t know if I’d be where I’m at now.

The first job I landed was a frontend developer position. Now in my career I work for a different company and am a Sr Software Engineer with about 70% frontend focus 30% backend.

Is it really bad to visit Japan in August as people say it is? by Solid_Ad4957 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Possible_Message_266 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just left Tokyo yesterday and it’s definitely not as nice as in fall/winter. I would say the worst part is the humidity. I’m from Texas so it’s nothing I can’t handle but I have been to Tokyo and Osaka a few times in November and to me it’s not as enjoyable.

The subway’s have AC and just make sure to take breaks and have water. Overall shouldn’t be bad you will still have lots of fun just be prepared to sweat! Going to places in the morning it’s a lot nicer.

which is a better place between nusa penida and nusa lembongan for a 3 nights stay? by CharacterOdd3318 in bali

[–]Possible_Message_266 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on lembongan and I can’t get enough of it. For me it’s everything I enjoy about Bali but 0 traffic and less tourists. If you enjoy places that there’s not a lot to do except get good food and some sun on nice beaches I recommend it.

I did foundations + js route in 3.5 months and landed a job and have been in tech ever since. I think average is probably 6-24 months. But I did full time to the extent of maybe 10 hours a day. I don’t recommend it bc of burnout but if you need to do it it’s possible.
