Bain & Company I received an offer to join Bain & Company for SF office but due to family reasons, I will have to stay in the South Bay. Given Bain’s local staffing model, it will be challenging for me to commute to SF and back. Is it possible to be transferred to the palo alto office/is that office fully functioning or does it mainly serve as a hub for partners and research?

I got a call from the Google recruiter about my L7 em interview Google She said I did overwhelmingly good on all interviews except one had mixed feedback on a system design. No surprise because it was not a good interview. The recruiter said i had a choice to go to hiring committee, give referrals they could call about my system design or take another system design interview. I’m not confident about the system design because of the bad experience I had with the previous interviewer. What should I do?
Although Amazon has instituted a hiring freeze and layoffs are probably on their way, I went through the loop for a security engineer position at AWS. Before I attended the final interviews, Amazon placed the hiring freeze and called me to ask if I wanted to go ahead or cancel my application. I decided do go ahead Right now I'm waiting for their response and the position I applied to changed from "under consideration" to "no longer under consideration". Thoughts?

I’m in the same situation as you i don’t know how many job posts i have applied to and haven’t gotten a single response
It is certainly a weak job market, and I'm sorry to hear about your difficult time. Hope you land an opportunity soon, so keep trying.
Definitely same. It’s insane and completely disheartening.
Over the past 10 months, I’ve considered giving up at various times but I just keep going because there’s nothing else to do. Same here; resume fully dialed in and adjusted periodically. Targeting roles appropriately so that I’m almost a 100% match, which makes not getting a job even more confounding. I’ve had a fair amount of interviews, but there are usually at least two finalists besides me and I haven’t been able to close the deal. Too many good people for too few roles. I’m guessing August-September might have a brief “burst” of jobs being released, but that’s it…this year is so screwed.
No #it.
Have you tried searching for hourly work through an agency?
Do you mind sharing some agencies?
The hour per app is probably the part killing you most tbh. I hit the same wall and started cutting it down by making 2-3 core resume versions, then only swapping in the top keywords / bullets from the JD instead of rewriting everything from scratch.
That usually gets me 80% of the way there way faster, and the last 20% is just making sure the wording acctually sounds like me. I also stopped guessing on formatting after I had one resume get mangled by an ATS because of a nice-looking table lol.
Might be worth checking whether the issue is reeally the tailoring or if something in the resume is getting filteredd before a human sees it. Do you know if the one reply came from a company that uses Workday or Reuѕmе Jdgе Greenhouse?
I feel that you need to work your network. The only interviews I've had I've made connections with past contacts or are introduced to roles. Even weak acquaintances work well. There are just too many resumes for a recruiter to vet, usually the first few get through and if they find a fit they stop looking.
In the same situation as you, making countless CVs for multiple job roles. Can't even land a retail job. :c
