Is it me or the market now is harder than used to be. I have found impossible to find good job offers. Most of these are offers with short contracts between 3 and 6 months and also require that you know a lot of technologies that finally you won't use in the actual work. In short, the benefit is small, the stability is small, and the requirements are many.

Get ready to do LeetCode for IT support and don’t forget to bring Dk pics to your interview.

Yes indeed. this statement is true, seldomly we encounter for companies who welcomes fresh ideas as well as innovative minds, they are bound to the ancient practice of sustaining a system Pre-Configured where we can assume that they are comfortable with the status of their company and start to care less about business expansion. Qualities they seek are far too many than the actual workload of the employee. Thus, in these practices, employees are set into a routine. an endless loop. Hope someday companies would be far more open about exploring alternative practices.

Its impossible in all of tech work industries, I work in RF fields and the pay is entry levels at best, these companies don’t want to pay for expertise experience

Should I specialize in Blockchain or AI? I’m a freshman in a CS degree and I can’t decide. My main argument to choose blockchain is the easy entry with little experience and high salary, I plan on growing my skills during the bear market and get a job once the market recovers. Regarding AI, I find this field fascinating but I feel like it requires a lot of experience, degrees and diplomas.
