Hello,

Ive been working as a freelancer with this startup founded by McKinsey and DeepMind alumni, heavily funded by a16z, etc. and got paid twice already, it is good side money for those who have extra time or looking for job. There are annoying AI interview but its doable and worth it.

In case anyone is interested here is a link (its a referral btw).

Hola a todos 👋

Quería preguntar por aquí porque me gustaría conectar con una desarrolladora que hable bien inglés y español y que sea especialmente detallista con su trabajo.

En el pasado he trabajado con desarrolladoras y tuve muy buenas experiencias. Me gustó mucho la atención que prestaban a los detalles y cómo podían entender exactamente lo que quería transmitir y convertirlo en un resultado muy cercano a lo que tenía en mente.

Por eso, ahora estoy buscando conocer a alguien con una forma de trabajar parecida: buena comunicación, atención a los detalles y compromiso con hacer las cosas bien.

Es una colaboración 100% remota.

No estoy intentando hacer una publicación formal de empleo; simplemente me gustaría conocer a alguien que pueda ser una buena conexión profesional y conversar un poco.

Si conocen a alguna desarrolladora que pueda encajar, o si eres desarrolladora y te gustaría conectar, no dudes en escribirme por privado. 😊

My company invited a bunch of people on a call this Monday and laid off more than 100 people. I've been with this company for 5 years as a backend dev.

They have given a severance package, but given the job market, I'm very anxious.

Tech stack: Node, Typescript, Nest.js, Golang, MongoDB.

I’m a frontend engineer and I’m pretty damn good at UI/UX. I’ve also gotten really good at spec driven AI development, basically taking a product idea or spec and turning it into a polished, working product with AI assisted development.
I want to start making some serious side income, but I’m trying to figure out where these skills are actually valuable.
For those of you already making money from side gigs:

What are you selling?
Where are you finding clients?
Are you freelancing, consulting, building SaaS/products, or doing something completely different?
If you were starting from scratch today, what would you focus on?

I’m not looking to make $17.50 fixing someone’s CSS at 2am. 😂 I’m trying to figure out how to turn UI/UX + frontend + AI assisted development into something people will actually pay good money for.

What’s actually working for you?

Hey folks,

I’m currently working a regular 9–5 software engineering job, but I have around 2–3 hours of free time each day that I’d like to put into some additional development work.

My main professional focus is backend development with .NET / C#, and I have around 1.5 years of professional experience. However, I’ve been fortunate enough to work on tasks that are often beyond what you might expect from someone with 1.5 years of experience. I enjoy taking on challenging problems, figuring things out independently, and learning as I go.

Apart from backend development, I’ve also been spending my own time learning and building things around web development and AI automation. This includes experimenting with things like AI-powered workflows, voice agents, AI integrations, and automating repetitive business processes. So I’m not limited to just .NET work — if there’s an interesting project that involves web development or AI automation, I’d be interested in that as well.

I’m currently looking for:

🧑‍💻 Part-time software engineering work

🌐 Remote freelance/contract opportunities

⏰ Projects with flexible working hours

⚙️ .NET / C# backend development

🌍 Website/web application development

🤖 AI automation and integrations

🎙️ Voice agents and AI-powered workflows

🚀 Helping startups or individuals build/improve their products

I’m mainly looking for something I can work on for 2–3 hours a day alongside my current job. I’m open to small projects, ongoing part-time work, freelance work, or even helping someone who needs an extra developer for a project.

If you know of any opportunities, have a project that needs help, or know someone looking for a developer, feel free to DM me or comment below.

I can share you my resume as well.

I just came out of an interview that honestly made me feel very uncomfortable. I had applied for an Embedded Firmware Developer role, and it fits what I studied and also the thing I love doing. But one of the first things the interviewer said was: "Oh, I thought you were a guy. I didn't realize you were a woman."

For the rest of the interview, I kept feeling like she was questioning whether a woman could handle a position like this or not, especially since it involves some on-site work. Even though the truth is I have absolutely no problem going on-site.

She asked me why I got into this field, but the way she said it made me feel like I had to justify my presence there. Then she started talking about "passion" and said something along the lines of: "Most men are more interested in electronics. They think about circuits all day."

She downplayed the embedded projects I completed during my degree, as if she was implying they weren't that important because they were coursework and not personal projects I did on weekends. I understand that employers want to see initiative outside of school, but her approach made me feel like she had decided from the beginning that I wasn't serious enough because I don't have many hobby projects.

Then she said that being attractive doesn't really help in a role like this, and told me not to take it the wrong way. Like... Okay? I was just trying to look professional and leave a good first impression. I even wore my glasses because I thought they might make me look a bit more "technical," which feels ridiculous now.

And this has happened before too. In another interview for a Mechanical CAD Drafter role, I was dressed neatly, and the interviewers kept emphasizing that the job wasn't just desk work, and that it also involved site visits and field measurements. One of them looked at me in a way that made me feel like there was something else behind what he was saying. Idk... Maybe I'm making it a bigger deal than it is? But I felt like it was assumed I wouldn't be okay with field work just because of how I looked and dressed. As if I only wanted a clean office job.

Honestly, it's really exhausting.

Hi Everyone,

I’m currently serving my notice period and actively looking for Data Engineering opportunities. My last working day is 25th September 2026, and I can join immediately as per the requirement.

Experience: 3 years

Skills: Databricks, PySpark, SQL, AWS, Snowflake, Azure

Notice Period: Currently serving | LWD: 25th September 2026 (can join immediately)

Availability: Immediate joiner

I’m primarily looking for roles involving Data Engineering, Databricks, PySpark, AWS/Azure, and cloud-based data platforms.

If your organization has any relevant openings and you’d be comfortable referring me, I’d really appreciate your help.

Happy to share my resume and additional details via DM.

Thanks in advance to everyone who reads this or helps with a referral.

I almost always tailor my resume to the specific position I'm applying to as I have experience that leaps into a lot of different areas (AI Engineer, Full-Stack Engineer, Data Engineer, ML Engineer). My work with AI is more extensive than this resume makes it out to be, but I hear a lot of places don't want to see AI tools on the resume.

I started programming in 2016, have worked with many data pipelines, legacy systems, full-stack web applications, distributed systems, and AI modeling (a lot of 'old AI' spanning all sorts of neural network architectures, LLM fine-tuning, VLM fine-tuning, and made an LLM with only standard math libraries for a research project).

My current role is ending, and I've been searching for a new position for over 4 months. I've sent out around 700 applications and have only had interviews with 4 different companies (I made it 3/4 rounds on one of them and one of them was an asynchronous test which I passed and made it to the 2nd round). I'm targeting remote and have been applying to some onsite/hybrid positions in Richmond, VA because I'll be relocating there but I don't see many positions that don't require 10+ YOE there.

The job boards I primarily use are: greeenhouse, hiringcafe, ashby, lever, other non-ats job boards, and custom scrapers. Previously used linked in a bit but after looking into when most the jobs were posted I found out that over 3/4 of the apps I sent out there were ghost listings or actually posted months ago.

I'm a 2027 BTech IT graduate and honestly, I'm getting genuinely scared about what happens after graduation , I'm not even able to sleep.

Campus placements have been really unpredictable. Weird shortlisting, getting filtered out before the OA, and sometimes not even getting the chance to prove yourself has made the whole process really discouraging.

I have an 8.3 CGPA, internship experience, and projects in Java, Spring Boot, backend/full-stack development, and I'm still actively improving my DSA and technical skills. I know I have a lot more to learn, but I'm serious about working and willing to put in the effort.

I'm now actively looking off-campus for decent software/tech opportunities. I'm open to SDE, backend, full-stack, graduate roles, internships, internship-to-full-time opportunities, startups and remote roles.

I genuinely don't care about a fancy company name right now. I want a good opportunity where I can work, learn, contribute and prove myself.

So if anyone can help with a lead, referral, internship opportunity, fresher opening, hiring contact, company that's currently hiring, or even a direction on where I should be applying, please reach out.

Even if you don't have an opening yourself, if you know someone who does, I'd really appreciate being pointed in their direction.

Hi everyone,

I’m wondering if anyone here has recently interviewed with Methods Business and Digital Technology, particularly for a Java Developer / Software Engineer role, and could share their experience with the process and how long it took to hear back after the final stage.

I recently completed all three stages of the interview process for a Java Developer position. I came away from the final interview feeling really positive, and I was told there were no concerns/issues from their side, so naturally I was quite hopeful that things had gone well.

It’s now been a week and a few days since my final interview. I’ve followed up with the recruiter twice by email to ask for an update, but unfortunately I haven’t received a response yet.

I completely understand that hiring decisions can take time, especially if there are internal approvals or other candidates being considered. I’m mainly trying to get a sense of whether this is normal for Methods and how long people have waited to hear back after completing the final stage.

I’ve been finding the job search particularly difficult recently, so having gone through three stages and feeling quite positive about the opportunity, the uncertainty has been a little daunting especially when it means not knowing whether I should mentally move on and start applying elsewhere again.

For anyone who currently works at Methods or has interviewed there recently:

• How long did you wait to hear back after your final interview?
• Did you receive an offer/rejection/update by email or through the recruiter?
• Is it normal for the process to go quiet for a week or two?

I’d really appreciate any insight or experiences, particularly from anyone who has been through the Java/Software Engineering hiring process.

Thanks!

An Atos recruiter contacted me on LinkedIn about a Software Engineer role, started the conversation properly and asked me to send my CV by email. He even sent me the JD, so I emailed my CV across. Next day I checked LinkedIn and the guy had literally blocked me. 😅

I’ve seen recruiters ghost candidates before, but blocking someone after asking for their CV is honestly a completely different level of ghosting.

I launched a live, aggregated directory of urgent job listings from 10 top job boards and distributors.

When companies need quick applicant volume for active roles, they push them directly to our feed.
