Bummer when you’ve had a couple great interviews for a job you really want, you’re told they really like you, then learn that a LATE candidate added by recruiter = one of the biggest bullshit charlatan frauds in the industry. The kinda huckster who just keeps failing up & up & up over 8 month-to-1 year stints at places after dazzling & bamboozling in interviews & then eventually being outed that they don’t know how to actually DO anything but spew & self-promote. Rinse, repeat.

So demoralizing

1:1 with my boss, one of the areas of improvement was: “be more vocal”.

Being an immigrant who struggles a lot with the language barrier is just super hard to digest this. I do my best, he doesn’t know how hard is keeping a Google Translate tab open on my browser all day long, he doesn’t know when people look to you because you sound “funny”. Just wanted to vent it, and say for all the leaders out there, if you want us to be more vocal, give us a chance to be heard with our own voice and truth
