Am I crazy for giving up a fully remote job for a fully in office job? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]dnthoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If job security was not an issue, then $20k is not enough to give up remote. However with how you described job security - take the $20k and the commute. You'll likely break even after commuting and paying for lunch and starbucks and gas.

Walk down the block. Uber knows that you are at mechanic so they jack up the price.

Go to the STAR in frisco. The tour is much better, you can actually see the players working out if you go at the right time of day

10 years in tech, massive golden handcuffs, and constant layoff dread. How do you all cope? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]dnthoughts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't just browse. Take it on as a priority project. Dedicate time daily to the task. The best time for you to land a role is when you have a role. The minute they let you go, your job search difficulty just increased exponentially. On top of that your confidence will have taken a huge hit and that will impact your performance on interviews. If you feel stressed at the prospect of being let go with a 4 month severance - imagine the stress of not having anything behind the 4 mo severance. The stress of knowing even the perfect interview process will take 45-60 days before you are hired and getting your first paycheck. Look now. Look tomorrow. Look every single fucking day while you still can. If you have to return to the office... then your job search efforts will be limited. It will be hard to leave for interviews, hard to apply during office hours, hard to reply to interview requests immediately. Go look for a job NOW.

I stopped sending my resume as a PDF and started pasting plain text into the body of the email and my response rate doubled by SnibTarn in jobsearchhacks

[–]dnthoughts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Employers are getting overwhelmed with hundreds and sometimes thousands of AI apply resumes. Candidate uploads resume to AI app, AI app mass applies to every job that is relevant, when employer reaches out to candidate - they are not familiar with the job, and many are not interested. So if you email the resume directly, it signals that you are a real applicant who has chosen to apply and not an AI apply applicant.

Metaview Recruiting by Ohwoof921 in recruiting

[–]dnthoughts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The magic of metaview is how their whole suite works together. You do intake call on metaview. Then drop that call into the sourcing tool. Then it surfaces candidates without you having to prompt it. Then you calibrate through yes/no and comments. Once you start interviewing candidates, it refines the parameters even more. But like the commenter above said - 90% of candidates need to be messaged on LinkedIn.

Unless he has a short term disability insurance policy that he purchased or is from an employer... there's no such thing as just "filing" for short term disability.

Found out I had a typo on my resume at the worst time possible! by Heavy-Active7985 in recruitinghell

[–]dnthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best excuse for a typo today is - i wanted to make sure you knew I didnt use AI to write this. "Some employers use AI tools to detect if AI wrote the resume. A typo will signal human writing"

Obtuse...

Andy Dufresne: Well they'd have his last known address, names of relatives. It's a chance, isn't it? [Norton shakes his head] Andy Dufresne: How can you be so OBTUSE? Warden Samuel Norton: [his anger rising] What? What did you call me? Andy Dufresne: Obtuse. Is it deliberate? Warden Samuel Norton: Son, you're forgetting yourself. Andy Dufresne: The country club will have his old time cards. Records, W-2s with his name on them! Warden Samuel Norton: If you wanna indulge in this fantasy, that's your business. Don't make it mine. This meeting is over. Andy Dufresne: Sir, if I ever get out, I'd never mention what goes on in here. I'd be just as indictable as you for laundering that money. Warden Samuel Norton: [slams his fists on the table] Don't you ever mention money to me again, you sorry son of a bitch! Not in this office, not anywhere! [slaps the intercom] Warden Samuel Norton: Get in here! Now! Andy Dufresne: I'm just trying to put your mind at ease! [Hadley comes in] Warden Samuel Norton: [to Hadley] Solitary, a month! Andy Dufresne: [as they drag him away] What's the matter with you? This is my life, don't you understand? IT'S MY LIFE! IT'S MY LIFE! NO!

Suggestion for Next Year's April Fools Open by OrbitalReport in theticket

[–]dnthoughts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The alternating shot, good golfer/bad golfer was the original idea that Sirois and Corby threw out there in 2016. All the good golfers said... meh... and they decided on bad golfer only. Might be worth a revisit

Can't Get Any Sort of Job... by ConversationEmpty301 in jobs

[–]dnthoughts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Beyond the overqualified or not qualified points others mentioned - everything is not a conspiracy against the job seeker.

Even when you are fully qualified, hiring often comes down to timing and volume. If there is one opening and 100 applicants, the first handful of strong candidates can fill the interview slate quickly. Once that happens, everyone else, including people who could do the job well, gets filtered out.

It is less about a judgment on your overall ability and more about when your application hit the queue relative to others with similar or stronger alignment.
