Looks like everyone’s getting rejected these days! Sometimes it’s not you—it’s the ATS filters automating the “No” before anyone reads your résumé. Ever gotten an instant rejection that left you wondering?

The tech job market is brutal right now. Today, I got another rejection for a position I applied for months ago—months that feel wasted. At least this time I got some feedback, but it only reinforces the fact that employers have the upper hand, while we unemployed candidates are left fighting for scraps.

I cried hard today. The hope I had is slipping away, bit by bit. I've never felt so worthless, so powerless—wishing either for a miracle or to just vanish completely.

I’ve been keeping a log of all my interactions with recruiters—applications, follow-ups, interviews. That log has more than 200 entries now, and all I feel is that I’ve been commodified, treated like something disposable at the whim of a corporation. This isn’t the dream we were promised.

Right now, the only things keeping me here are my loved ones and the antidepressants I rely on. Otherwise, I don’t know if I’d still be standing. Corporate greed is at an all-time high, while the world prepares for its first trillionaire.
