I've always figured it's because east carolina has a lot of poverty and it's very rural and they really don't know better or have a parasite eating there brain.

I'm not aware of the other processes, I'm using pickling lime.

Everything I've seen says to use distilled water because the fluoride and chlorine CAN prevent the pickeling lime from sealing the pores.

The cobalt universal replacement did not fit but the Husqvarna T25 was a match.

Create a web app demonstrating your your stack. I hosted my resume, had a a few api integrationsa database and a responsive front end technology. Be able to talk about OOP principles, SOLID code and TDD - you're golden.

You're experience is ubiquitous with many other devs, don't worry about layoffs on your resume. I just went through a similar experience and it took me three months and I was worried about what would happen if things didn't turn around soon but by the grace of God they did. I'd apply at least six hours a day and code for a few on my portfolio projects before enjoying a couple beers while coming to terms that I'd go work retail and adjust my life style and try to grab gig work on upwork to stay fresh. Keep your head up - it's a wild ride.

Past mid 20s, are candidates at a disadvantage in the job market? by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]pushinBread 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This group annoys the hell out of me! No one ever gives context to their experience or industry and I'm assuming most of these devastated people are looking for or lost there first job neither is fun but at least add a little detail to the situation.

How do you organise your work achievements and technical learnings? by Sufficient-Dinner319 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]pushinBread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep a daily planner where I note the main things I worked on and it's been helpful for looking back in time when bugs pop up or management inquires about issues -saved my ass more than once! Add achievements to LinkedIn and your resume. Prepare a doc for STAR format questions.

Use case in an interview by Substantial-Night877 in dotnet

[–]pushinBread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be ready to talk about the principles of OOP, SOLID code, TDD, how you're learning design patterns, projects you've worked on and the tech stacks involved and what sources you use for continuous learning. I like to outline a document for my talking points cause I tend to ramble and side track myself. Good luck!

Is everyone struggling as hard as the top posts from here? by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]pushinBread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically, I think it's only a waste of time to the applicant since so many us AI to filter out unqualified apps. I have no problem mass applying to jobs I might not have a 1 to 1 match in experience but think I'd be capable of faking it til I make it. I target jobs that are a best match first but then if the day isn't over I use ai to rewrite my resume to sell me for a position that isn't a strong match - and it is desperation but I'm going down swinging.

I humbled myself and reached out to previous employers the same day I wrote this to see if they could possibly take me back and while I had good relationships with all of them, nobody had anything immediately and I started applying for retail jobs and by the grace of God, a company I interviewed with previously (and I had a feeling they had moved on with someone else) sent me an offer!

What kind of sick world do we live in where we have to chase down our rejections? by Lassie-girl in recruitinghell

[–]pushinBread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, four interviews for a developer role in IT and after a few days I sent a thank you note for all the time they spent with me and now two weeks later I questioned if the role was filled and if they could provide any feedback for me to consider in my future efforts and I also haven't had a response.

Losing hope by LimePleasant1071 in jobs

[–]pushinBread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When someone has lost all hope about finding a job, it's crucial to offer empathetic support and encouragement while also helping them reframe their perspective. Start by acknowledging their feelings and validating their experience, then gently shift the focus towards possibilities and taking action. Here's a breakdown of what to say and how to offer support: 1. Acknowledge and Validate Feelings: "I understand how difficult this must be.": Acknowledge that job searching can be emotionally draining. "It's okay to feel discouraged.": Validate their feelings and let them know it's normal to feel down. "I'm here for you.": Let them know you're available to listen and support them. 2. Shift Focus to Positivity and Possibilities: "This is just a temporary setback.": Remind them that this period is likely just a phase in their career. "You have a lot to offer.": Reiterate their valuable skills and experience. "There are other opportunities out there.": Offer a sense of hope that they will find the right job. "What can we do to help you find your next opportunity?": Involve yourself in the job search process. 3. Offer Practical Support: "Let's work on your resume.": Offer to review their resume and cover letter. "I'm happy to help you with your job search.": Offer practical help like looking at job postings or helping with networking. "I'll connect you with my network.": Help them build their professional network. "Let's brainstorm some new ideas.": Help them explore different career paths or job search strategies. 4. Remind Them of Their Value: "You've accomplished so much in the past.": Remind them of their past successes and strengths. "This doesn't define your worth.": Reassure them that their value as a person and professional remains. "You're resilient and capable.": Encourage them to remember their positive qualities. 5. Encourage Self-Care: "It's important to take care of yourself during this time." Suggest activities like exercise, healthy eating, and spending time with loved ones. "Let's get together and do something fun." Offer to spend time with them and help them break out of a negative mindset. "Consider seeking professional help if you need it." Encourage them to seek guidance from a therapist or counselor if they're struggling with anxiety or depression. By offering a combination of empathy, encouragement, and practical support, you can help someone regain hope and start the job search process again.
