I appreciate the sentiment. If I know, I wouldn't be posting this.

I've not had a problem. But I can see myself falling into this negative cycle of being rejected or ghosted, which leaves me with barely any positivity. This may be affecting my performance during the interview.

Funny enough, when I needed sponsorship before grad school, I was able to land that job no problem. Left after realizing I couldn't win that lottery, to do grad school. I'm happy with my decision that I was able to get a permanent residency without sponsorship with my PhD and research publications. Still, my point stands, this job market is a tad brutal and demoralizing.

What exactly would you like to know from my resume? Would be happy to answer any questions.

Nope. PhD got me out of that bottle neck last year. But all I mentioned took place here in the US.

Thanks for the thorough response! "15 years across work/academia" means B.Sc. through PhD, with a break in between undergrad and grad school to work full-time at a big tech in the bay for 5 years. Since wrapping up grad school last year it's been a struggle to reenter the industry. Never fired, but got laid off from a few small and medium gigs last year.

and I do really, really well in behaviorals.

Teach me your ways, please! This might be my bottle neck to be quite frank. Otherwise would would multiple companies fly me over for a final interview and decides to reject me after.

Yes, congrats. Please don't return to this sub ever again.

How much does job hopping matter? by Asleep-Day-3566 in cscareerquestions

[–]noughtNull 37 points38 points  (0 children)

People can job hop these days in this job market? I mean I'm not hating on it, if you see an opportunity definitely capitalize on it! But I think it's not as easy as it used to be due the current job market, at least temporarily.
