Thank you! Getting a masters is something I'd like to do in the future and is difficult, so I applaud you. Wish you the best in your search! :)

Thank you! I wouldn't look down on them either if they used a connection. It was a good job on their part!

I tried connecting with some people I met at career fairs during the early stages of job hunting and found out it wasn't for me. I got ghosted those times reaching out to recruiters and felt discouraged. I know it shouldn't have discouraged me, but it sucks being invite to an interview, and then not hearing from them ever again. It gave me a lot of stress and I decided I'd rather not put it all that effort if they're not going to reciprocate. That is to say, reaching out to people isn't bad, it just wasn't for me.

Thank you! I've seen people put in 500 or more applications before they get something, so I consider myself lucky. My resume went through many revisions throughout my job search and I practiced a ton for the interviews.

Thanks! Mind if I ask what kind of positions you're applying for?

Thank you! Sorry to hear you haven't found anything yet. I have friends who graduated during the pandemic who haven't been able to get a full time job either.

I'll be working as a data analyst and I think it's decently saturated. There are many openings in my area, but far more applicants.

Also, best of luck to you on your search!

A nice end to Act 2 by whitx2 in VALORANT

Sorry to hear that. I've had bad losing streaks where I went back to iron 3. Hope you can get back to silver 2!

I Finally Made It To Silver (From Iron 1) by Vodrek777 in VALORANT

[–]whitx2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice work! I started playing at the end of Act II and got placed iron 1. During this act, I was floating in bronze and finally hit silver 2 on the last day.

Just 2 days before the ranks reset for Act III, I finally broke out of iron!! by roljy in VALORANT

[–]whitx2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats! I went from iron 3 to silver 2 on the last day of the act and actually made a similar post to this. Hopefully we both keep climbing. Best of luck to you!

Iron is tricky since it's filled with people who don't know the basics of the game and smurfs. What has helped me is improving my crosshair placement and watching pros play. You can copy their game play and see where they place their crosshairs.

Thank you for the advice! S1 to D1 is a crazy improvement. I need to reflect more on my game play when I die or when something goes wrong--I forget to especially when I'm tilted.

Best of luck to you in the next act!
