What is the hiring process of persistent systems? I am done with one technical round and got an email with subject line as 'feedback' but in mail it is written that they will get in touch with me. What does that mean? Will there be more technical round or managerial round?

At the end of the day most people want the sexiest, most attractive 7% of the opposite sex. Forget interests and other stuff. Who is really, really hot.
Good luck with that!! Who swipes on personalities instead of pics?
Give me a woman who can tolerate an average looking guy and likes to snuggle and puts up with my jokes that aren’t even funny. Bonus if she’s smart and sophisticated. Good luck for me finding that!!!
P1, where have you been looking? Are you open to a woman who will like you for you, but is a bit old fashioned? I know that men are particular as well.
There are many great women out there who would enjoy all of the things you mentioned, but some of us want to connect with a man the right way - the old fashion way. For many men, that’s a turn off which has them heading back to the forest looking for someone else.
Looks can be subjective. For me, a man can start off looking average but his sensitivity, compassion and humor makes him more attractive.
It’s because most women want the same 5% of men so those men have no reason to “settle”. Then the women get hurt, but because they went out once with that man they won’t “lower” standards to the other 95%. It’s an actual problem because men who are real catches aren’t getting love cause they’re, say 5’8, and a lot of women are getting inflated egos because they went out with a guy in the 5% that just went out to have sex with them until they found their top tier woman, but now that woman will only date the top 5%, which will lead to them perpetually being hurt/used. Like there’s actually studies on this, it’s crazy.
I have been single for 20 yrs and it's not cause I can't get a woman. I was the 5% and I was the one who got used and treat6like shit regular. And woman in my experience just like games more than anything else and if they happen along a ri ch sucker they tolerate more than if with that 5%. And in that case they actually stay true as to keep themselves content. And I saw it alot men are easy anyway you look at it. We are happy to feel wanted/needed by a beautiful woman. We even close our minds to the possibility of infidelity. Woman find it comical when they get caught and if we believe or go blind they are even more jovial the next time.
It’s the kid in a candy store phenomenon— no one knows what they want
Absolutely!

When I stopped dating apps, my options opened up. Not in quantity, but in quality. It became less about screening and more about connection. Yes, attraction is still important, but you get a better idea of that right upfront when IRL. Pictures can be misleading. It’s also how they carry themselves.
I agree
Pro
As it’s been already pointed out, most women go after the same 5% of men regardless of what they bring to the table.
I see this with my girl friends all the time; like you’re 5’2 and make 50k but he has to be at least 6 ft, make six figures and also pay for everything. Meanwhile those men either get scooped up in their 20s or are chronic bachelors that love the no strings attention.
Walmart is the best place to meet women lol
Good
Would be interesting to see someone dare to connect on here with their real identity
F but why gender matters?
