Is anyone else feeling no interest in applying for jobs anymore - Lemmy.World
I got laid off in March as a software engineer 2 and since then I’ve hardly
applied to many jobs, of the few I’ve applied to I got a handful of interviews
which I couldn’t even clear the first round of Leetcode test. I can barely solve
1 or 2 LC questions a day, and I’ve tried to read system design for a while but
can’t find any interest in it. Even if I solve the interview questions we’ll
I’ve been rejected, everything feels so pointless. I just want to play video
games and watch movies till these darks days pass and there’s another boon in
tech hiring. But with AI it feels like many jobs won’t ever come back. Should I
consider changing careers or moving to another country. I don’t think I have any
real passion or talent for programming, but it’s the only skill I have right
now. I don’t know what level of panic I should be feeling right now. I don’t
have any close friends or supportive family to talk to about any of this.
Has anyone used 3rd party services to apply for jobs on your behalf

Has anyone used 3rd party services to apply for jobs on your behalf - Lemmy.World
Hi, I recently got laid off from my current role, and I don’t have a lot of time
left to find another job. Find jobs that fit my work experience and applying to
them takes a lot of time away from prepping for interviews. So I was thinking of
hiring some 3rd party company that applies for jobs on your behalf based on the
criteria you provide them. However, I am not familiar with these types of
company and don’t know which ones are legit and which are just taking your money
and wasting it and giving back nothing in return. If anyone knows of a company
that they think is legit and doesn’t cost way too much, that would be helpful.
I’ve read about some that also customize your resume to fit the role before
applying, although I am not sure if this is a good or a bad thing. I live in the
US and would prefer US based company but if there’s a legit non US company, I am
open to looking into them as well.
The Dictators Playbook - Lemmy.World
This video [https://youtu.be/vK6fALsenmw] by Wired perfectly sums up the
dictatorship playbook that Trump is following right now, I hope saner heads will
prevail, and we don’t have to see the worst consequences of dictatorship before
the crooks are brought to justice.
Why is my entire feed in this Lemmy server nothing but American politics and Reddit bashing

Why is my entire feed in this Lemmy server nothing but American politics and Reddit bashing - Lemmy.World
I came to Lemmy cause Reddit went to shit, so I get that people want to bash it
and I also understand that most of the users of Lemmy are from the US and the
shit show that’s happening there right now, but I am absolutely tired of these 2
types of posts being the only thing in my feed, I open this app because I want
to learn new interesting things, and maybe see some funny and creative stuff,
there’s enough negativity and stress in my life and I don’t need more of that on
my only social media app. How do I filter these topics from my feed and which
communities can I join to improve my feed.
