Hi I am trying for job from October 2024 ( have applied atleast 700+ job applications) ever since I left my previous employer but hardly got 4 online interviews. Most of the companies the job vacancies are posted just to satisfy HK Labour dept and the position are already filled internally and our resume are not even really checked. Thanks to those few employers who atleast contacted and arranged for an online interview. It’s really tough in HK now - just staying positive and hanging around🤞

I'm not sure any country has been spared from what is happening to the job market. I'm in Canada and grateful to still be employed, but I have friends with stories similar to yours. Same for my friends in England, too. I think you have the right idea that the only option that can make a difference is to stay positive and just keep trying.

Received an offer for non- tech CCM role and wondering if I should accept. I feel like I was lowballed and downleved despite having 6 YOE (relevant but not in tech). Not sure it will be beneficial to leave my current role for this offer to get my foot in the door.

I’m at the cap for salary at the level/role and can’t negotiate offer any higher.
