I have been unemployed for the last 5 months, I was a full stack developer.

Been searching for like 4 months, I cant even land an interview, I have given only 2 interviews in which I was ghosted after the last round.

Ps I love to build things, but its just that I want a job now anyhow.

Hi everyone, I’m currently looking for internship opportunities. I’ve attached my resume, and I’d really appreciate any relevant leads, referrals, or opportunities you think I might be a good fit for. Thank you!

I know the job market isn’t doing great right now, but I’d really appreciate some advice. I have a bachelor’s degree, a master’s degree, and about 2 years of professional experience. I don’t feel like my current job is somewhere I want to stay long-term, and I’ve been here about a year now, so I’m thinking it’s time to start looking and applying.
For those who have recently made a similar move, what platforms did you use to find jobs? LinkedIn, Indeed, company websites, recruiters, networking, etc.?
Also, how long did it take you to land a good-paying job that actually valued your education and experience? I’d love to hear what worked for you and anything you wish you knew before starting your search.

I have been trying to get a job as a fresher BBA but only getting those sales or Telecalling Roles. Should i go for it Or should I try to find a Good Role in a Company? Seniors help out Please.

Been unemployed for 2 months and just recently went back to my old bartending job for 1 day a week. I work at a slow restaurant though and make my wage with tips. There is just not enough traffic to pay my bills that way. I'm considering just going through and getting random certifications to add to my resume. I don't want to do 4 more years of school though since I am graduating with my BA in general business in December. What at best certifications I can add to that, and it won't take 2 years.

Title:

BTech CSE student aiming for a good-paying job by 2028 — what should I focus on?

Body:

I'm currently a 2nd-year BTech CSE student in India, and I have around 2 years to prepare for placements/jobs (targeting 2028).

Right now, I don't have strong technical skills yet. I'm learning Java and planning to get into software development, but I'm confused about what I should focus on to become job-ready and hopefully get a good package by 2028.

My rough goal is 20+ LPA, although I understand that may be difficult and I'm willing to put in the work.

For people who are already working in software/tech:

What skills should I learn between now and 2028?

Should I focus on Java + DSA + development, or choose something else?

How important are projects, internships, LeetCode/competitive programming, GitHub, etc.?

What should I realistically be able to do by the end of 2027?

Is 20+ LPA realistic for someone starting from almost zero in 2 years?

If you were in my position, what roadmap would you follow?

I'd really appreciate honest advice, especially from people who have gone through placements or hiring recently.

Thanks!

I’m 19 and i have been trying to find a part time job for over a year now and still haven’t landed a job. Since May i have only been on 7 interviews. Can someone please give me advice on how i can get a job. I wouldn’t even mind figuring out a little side hustle to make money online.

I been applying to jobs like target, sam club, giant and other jobs i forgot i even applied month's again with no response sam clubs the only one that responded back but was just a rejection email I can only apply for part time since I'llgraduatehighschool at 19 ( had to repeat kindergarten).

The one successful thing I was able to was calling giant and asking for there hiring manger which he said he'll call be back tomorrow after looking at my application but I'm suspicious of that before that .

I went in store two times to ask for manger to get a interview before calling them only thing they said was leave my contact info and they will contact me. It was the same with target, royal farms and McDonald's my parents really want me to get a job and I do too I really want giant to call me tomorrow hopefully they didn't lie like the others.( thanks for anyone reading my situation)

Is there a job where I can work from home? The kind I want is I simply get a template of a merchandise printing for my illustration and my workplace handles the rest? Like a work for hire merchandise illustrator? Who knows any place for this?

For the full context, I was laid off from a position I held for 6 years in October 2025. I held another job from end of February 2026 to beginning of June 2026 (so 3 full months, plus a few days). I quit this position as it was not a good fit, and was doing serious damage to my physical and mental health.

So naturally, I chose not to include that recent position in my resume, as I didn't want questions about why I stayed for such a short time. However, one recruiter suggested that I add the job to my resume anyway, because my resume shows no employment since October 2025, and the unemployment gap could be a concern to employers.

Anyone have a strong opinion in either direction? If I included this job in my resume, lied and said I was hired on a strictly temporary basis, would this result in my former employer calling bullshit and saying "No, this guy quit" during the background check?

Hi everyone! I’m currently looking for my next full-time opportunity and would love to connect with employers or recruiters who are hiring.

I have a B.S. in International Trade & Marketing from FIT, a background in Business Administration, and experience across retail, merchandising, administration, customer service, and education.

I’m particularly interested in:

• Supply Chain / Logistics / Operations
• Merchandising / Product / Fashion
• Business & Administrative roles
• International Trade / Import & Export
• Entry-level corporate roles with opportunities for growth

I’m open to opportunities in Westchester, NYC, and surrounding areas. I’m also open to hybrid or remote positions.

😊

I literally posted here 10 days ago saying I was going bananas from the job search. But I finally have a full time job in my desired field of UX/UI Design (I was considering doing customer service lol).

I’ve been searching for probably around 9 months. I graduated in May 2026 but was lightly searching since Jan 2026 and went hard from June - now. Probably did 100s of applications I’d say maybe 600 or something total. Around 20 initial interviews 8 passed to next round, 3 final rounds all being rejected previously and now finally after 5 rounds of interviews me in I’ll be making $75k 🥳

So, today, I headed to a scheduled second interview at a fast-food place and see that another person is there at the same time. The first person is interviewed for a few minutes, and I wait at least 40 more minutes. During that time, I see the hiring manager is eating and talking on the phone, and I didn't want to be rude or anything, so I kept sitting and waiting. Eventually, I head outside for a walk to stretch my legs, get some air, not even for half a minute. I head back in the building, and see the hiring manager now available, and ask her if she could interview me now. The first thing out of her mouth is, "You were the one who just walked out?" To get some air and stretch my legs, yes. Apparently, during break time, she was observant enough to notice me the entire time and not reassure or acknowledge me or anything. She then tells me to sit and wait some more. 10 minutes later, the store manager comes out, not the hiring manager herself. The kicker? I was asked the exact same "questions" as my first interview. Same clipboard and everything, virtually no real information given other than my name and phone number, again. After an hour waiting, I didn't want to burn a bridge or leave empty handed, so I answered them, again. Anyone else had such a sham of an experience?

Iam basically a 2024 passed out I worked in non it for almost a year. After that I left job and I have taken coaching Java full stack development and DSA

Now I have completed learning python and flask

Applying multiple jobs daily but no use

Any suggestions to get an IT job

Hi everyone, my name is Nathaniel AKA Riel. I have been a recruiter for 6 years...I have worked as a technical recruiter and corporate/trade skills recruiter for large multi-million dollar national organizations. I was let go about 6 months ago from a job I worked for years with 0 warning and like many of you I was ABSOLUTELY devastated. I found myself on the other side of the interview desk and let me tell you...it has opened up my eyes to how cruel...and disgusting the recruitment industry can be and for that...I am so...so sorry. I didn't want to...for the lack of better words shovel coal into a furnace anymore. That is when I decided that I would pursue a career with a company that actually valued people. I found a company that from step one has treated me with the dignity and respect that I as a human deserve. I have never once in the 70+ interviews ( YES YOU READ THAT F#%$ING RIGHT 70+ interviews for someone who KNOWS THE SYSTEM) that I have done in the last 6 months been challenged like this interview challenged me it was ...so fulfilling and made me feel ...GOOD AGAIN after facing so much rejection. So here listen now, I have my recruiting desk back. I am recruiting for a massive company that has decent benefits and pays decent market value and will be relatively SAFE in the future. If you are interested in remote or trade skills work please reach out to me in the dms or down below and I'll dm you the links to my new companies careers page so you can check it out for yourself and see if there is anything of interest for you.

I know its hard because I just got done living it.
I know you're angry...i was angry too.

Instead of clenching your fist....reach out and take my hand and let me try to help because I genuinely want... to help.

I don't make commission. I am salaried and all of my needs are met with this position.

I simply want to help people get back on their feet...well......because I can.

to anyone who actually reads this....thank you forward it to whoever might need help. I have direct access to positions across the trade skills spectrum and in both remote/hybrid/onsite positions.

The firm I find my desk at is founder owned and every founder is either a minority or female. this place is truly a mythical magical and unique beast.

I hope you dont need my help...but I know there are some people that do please dont be shy I want. to. help.

I'm a 27(y/o) female. English isn't my first language, I didn't use Reddit for a long time so forgive the weird way i put words together.

I need a job with minimal (none) human interaction irl or online. I have ADHD and I'm sure some form of autism. (Women don't get diagnosed with autism almost at all in my country, that's why i say I'm sure instead of: "I'm diagnosed with autism.")

I have been torturing myself for years now by working as a cleaner or working at fast food places. It's been a living hell for me. I absolutely abhor those jobs and would love nothing more than an online job that requires minimal human interaction.

My experience:

Cleaning lady at hotels, motels, hostels.

Fast food restaurants

Tracking (security job, i had to talk to drivers and colleagues all the time)

I enjoy having friends to study with. Makes me stick to it consistently. Please pm if you’re up for it.

but I didn't want to cheat on your wonderlic test. cheers to guessing!

After months and months of applying, over 100+ applications, I have finally landed a remote job, it's 15k (INR) per month, from 12 pm - 9pm.

I have had better paying jobs in the past, but this was the only place that replied and requested for an interview. My CTC has been 35k (INR) per month.

But I knew if I asked for more, they'd reject me because they couldn't pay more.

Tbh, knowing that given my experience this is way way below what I would usually get, has been quite an experience. I felt like a loser for a while, still do.

I'm relatively new to this sector and I was confused on my first day.

I have been broke for so long, I stopped going out and hanging out with friends because I literally didn't have money.

Currently I have 4 rs in my account.

Some money is better than no money.

I've been unemployed and without a full time job since December of 2025. I've probably sent about 250 job applications in and went through interviews with 10 different companies. Yesterday, after a 2-month process, I had a final-round interview with a company I was really excited for. I'm not sure if it went well, but I am getting so disheartened.

What's everyone doing to keep themselves motivated to keep searching?

I've been looking for a job for 2 years. I have a PhD in human physiology, with several years of military leadership and a good track record publications and grants. After 200+ applications. I got a handful of interviews, but not for anything I actually applied for, or was remotely qualified for. No offers. In 2 years, not a single offer. Starting to feel like we're at a point where if you're on the outside of the job market, it's just never going to happen. Like this is it. I'm going to move in with my parents and just never be employable again.

Hello fellow NILFs (Not In the Labor Force, as the kids call it these days).

My position was terminated at the end of April and I've been hunting for jobs all day every day since then. It took me way too long to realize LinkedIn is the worst POS platform in the world - what giant blackhole of BS that is - so I went other routes. Unfortunately, no luck yet.

Anyways, after 4 months of strenuous, tedious applications and tailoring resumes and cover letters, today I finally turned to a paid AI service. Thanks to my Insta algo, AIApply was the first one I went to try - mainly because it boasted the ability to auto-apply for hundreds of jobs based on my preferences. However, as I completed the questionnaire (with the knowledge the paywall was coming), I was re-directed to another company called GlobalWorkAI right when I went to pay. I did not realize it until I got the confirmation email and a quick Google search told me they are NOT the same. Has anyone else had this experience or any knowledge of Global Work AI? I went back to AIApply and re-did the questionnaire (stopping at the paywall) and the steps were different.

I reached out to Global Work AI and demanded a cancellation and refund or I will be disputing it ASAP with my credit card company.

TLDR: Has anyone used Global Work AI and is it a scam? Additionally, has anyone had experience with AIApply? I could use all the help I can get!
