Software Engineers, quick question.

When I was job hunting, I spent more time finding jobs than preparing for interviews.

The biggest challenges for me were finding genuine openings, knowing who was hiring, and keeping track of applications.

That's what inspired me to start building a tool to help solve those problems.

What's been the hardest part of your job search?

Hardest part is to cross the entry barrier of ATS or some entry level recruiter, who has no idea of technology but is filtering resumes of hard core techies.

A warning, i have been phished through the premise of a job interview.thats definitely a new low from scammers but verify interviews they plucked my info from indeed and through that got my info, when I got suspicious (after it was too late) I called the "hiring company" (was a real company) and they said i wasn't the only one getting duped. I can't believe people are praying on people looking for a job during a pandemic but apparently some ppl have no soul. Just wanted to share and be vigilant
