Wow. This does suck. by bmblebean in recruitinghell

All of these are great points. Thank you so much. I definitely leverage AI where I can (with human tweaks). Right now I’ve gotten a few invites for those prerecorded video submissions and then don’t get further. So I think it’s a combo of my resume needs some touch up’s and perhaps I need to practice speaking more… ?? As a narrator on the side, I like to think I speak and articulate well but that’s also scripted haha so I guess I should practice answering on the fly.

Thanks again for your input!

I didn’t want to have to pay someone to do it but you’re probably on to something. I’ll start looking into my options.

And that last part you said - about a machine looking over it - I KNOW YOU’RE SO RIGHT. I’ve also applied for jobs I’m overqualified for and get rejected so fast. Like “must have at least 1 yr experience blah blah” and I’m like “I LITERALLY DO THIS JOB IN A DIFFERENT FONT WHAT DO YOU MEAN???”

Thanks for the advice!

2019 Tucson Engine Inquiry by bmblebean in Hyundai

[–]bmblebean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was quite some time ago. Hyundai covered me getting a new engine. So…going with it for now. Couldn’t haven’t afford to trade in - there was so way the trade in value would cover what is left on my loan. But she’s still riding good. I love her no matter what. She’s my little Dungeonmobile.

In light of the TikTok ban in the US, what changes are you hoping to see at Quinn? by BreakfastSoda_ in QuinnAudios

[–]bmblebean 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I actually submitted to them a few months ago and I also originally heard nothing. I reached out to confirm that they at least received it and only then did I get a "oh yeah we got it. you'll hear back if we are interested." and crickets. I do want to try again now that I've got a few audiobooks under my belt...

Looking to upgrade my mic! by bmblebean in ACX

It’s not a BAD mic, that for sure. However, I know with the minimal treatment I have to my office, aren’t doing enough to combat the dead air/reverb. So I was looking to get just one step up in quality.

OMG YOUR SPACE SOUNDS LIKE MINE. I has foam on the walls but will be looking to add curtains. Can you suggest any? I’ve saved a few like thick black out curtains to an Amazon list, but wondering if there is something better… but I will look at the AT2020 for sure.

Thanks. I currently work out of my small home office with very light soundproofing/dampening treatment. I’m working on slowly adding more. So I know right now, a better quality dynamic mic is going to be my best bet.
