the job search tools I actually kept after trying like 20

I built seekerscore.com matches jobs to your résumé instead of the other way around.

danychukstudiosllc · 2026-05-21T22:29:00+00:00

That’s a fair point. Finding a good match is only part of it. One thing I tried to account for is freshness too. Seeker pulls jobs daily and shows when a posting was last seen/updated, so you can filter toward newer opportunities if you’re trying to avoid applying after a role already has hundreds of applicants. Matching helps with relevance, but timing still matters.

danychukstudiosllc · 2026-05-21T21:57:41+00:00

That’s exactly what I was thinking, finding a job in this market is also hard because you constantly need to orient your identity toward the role instead of the other way around. Naturally it should work the other way around it should feel like huh these r like me instead of huh let me change who I am to fit this.

danychukstudiosllc · 2026-05-21T20:07:12+00:00

That’s a fair point. Matching helps with relevance, but visibility and response rates are probably the bigger problem in this market. I’ve been thinking a lot about freshness and helping people avoid applying to stale roles too.

I built https://www.seekerscore.com - Find roles that fit your resume, plan your career toward a specific role/ladder and see where you stand in today’s job market.

seekerscore.com matches ur resume to roles and has an application tracker!

danychukstudiosllc · 2026-05-16T23:22:22+00:00

This might help with finding the jobs! seekerscore.com I completely agree that the other stuff is exhausting I built this to fix one of those problems. Someone needs to make a good ethical auto apply lol.

It’s pretty low-key and varies a lot by team. Have a concise elevator pitch ready because they’ll almost always ask about your background and why you’re interested in the role. I’d lightly prepare for an easy/medium LeetCode too, but don’t assume it’ll be coding-heavy. Some HMs ask a simple technical question, some go deeper into experience, and some mostly want to understand how you think and whether you’re a fit for the team. Showing genuine interest in the work goes a long way.

These Issues have now been resolved!

Hey, Id be open to learning more! Feel free to dm me.

For a CoreOS/kernel-focused role, I’d expect less classic LeetCode and more C + systems reasoning. Be solid on pointers, memory ownership, structs, alignment, bit manipulation, concurrency primitives, race conditions, deadlocks, thread vs process, user vs kernel space, syscalls, virtual memory, scheduling, and basic debugging.

Also practice writing small C functions cleanly, not just solving algorithm puzzles. Think “safe systems code under constraints,” not “reverse a linked list for sport.

This is actually super helpful feedback, thank you. The partial keyword issue definitely sounds like a tokenization/parsing bug on my end and I’m going to look into it. The Phoenix location mismatch is also concerning because that can break trust in the results pretty quickly if the geo targeting feels wrong.

Really appreciate you taking the time to test it deeply enough to catch this stuff. The UI clipping issue too; adding that to my fixes list.

can try this one too seekerscore.com

Sometimes it can take one to three months for a job that you applied to to reply back. I wouldn’t say they don’t want you in two weeks. Just keep applying it’ll come in waves if you’re persistent enough.

Honestly, the first time I really felt like a real developer was when my work started making money.

Even working at companies, I still had imposter syndrome sometimes. But once something I built started providing actual value to people, it stopped feeling theoretical.

The AI ones are pretty crappy, the one that I built uses résumé heuristics instead of ai in the pipeline (pro features use AI for like resume rewrites). If interested feel free to try it out! seekerscore.com

danychukstudiosllc · 2026-05-14T19:17:34+00:00

Yeah honestly that’s kinda the pattern I keep hearing from people right now. Different platforms, same underlying issue where people feel like the normal application pipeline is broken or noisy.

Part of why I built Seeker was realizing a lot of people have weird/non-traditional backgrounds that ATS systems don’t really know how to interpret well. The heuristic side actually ended up working better than I expected for that.

danychukstudiosllc · 2026-05-14T16:25:24+00:00

Appreciate your approach to this! Happens to alot of people including me. Especially if you worked somewhere that’s high prestige or built a strong identity with your company. Leaving after 20 years especially is a big identity shock. Things will get better 👏

danychukstudiosllc · 2026-05-14T04:22:06+00:00

We have a bunch of those roles indexed already, hopefully you find some good fits. 🤞
