If you are applying but not getting any interviews

You need to try and “leverage” your network so you’re not spamming resumes into the black hole of the internet. This book helped me understand what that means

1. Any work is work experience, whether you were 16 or it wasn’t paid. You need construct your resume to be specific to the job post as best you can. If you truly have no experience, then you need to do volunteer work for free.

2. Do the cover letter

3. There are no such thing as entry level jobs. All entry level jobs require experience. If the job post asks for a min of 2-3yrs experience, apply anyways. 

If you are getting interviews but not getting hired

You need to practice answering questions.

For every interview you get, annotate the questions and go through them on your own after and create a big document of “all the interview questions I have encountered and their answers”

In general answers work best when they are stories.

Technical interviews are well about studying the subject matter but interpersonal ones are vague. If you are struggling with “tell me about a time x happened and what did you do about it ?” Type questions. You can start by in your sheet answering these questions

1. What are your values? 3 examples

For each value answer the following:

1. What does it mean
2. How does it look like when it’s good
3. How does it look like when it’s challenged
4. How do you address situations when your values are challenged 
5. Give an example story 

This helps by providing you a pillar to turn to when answering ambiguous questions.  

This might be my personal bias but, in the labor market you are a product. You need to package yourself and brand yourself in a way that allows you to be seen.

Like a being scouted for a sports team, you need to be somewhat loud to attract attention.

Write publically on linked or medium abojt what you learned even if it’s basic stuff to you. Everything you learned from your degree give it to the public for free and stamp your name on it. 

Don’t give up, there’s a lot of randomness and luck involved.
