This is too funny. I did almost 800 in about 14 months. Finally landed something just now but it’s been brutal.

I didn’t actually think this was real. Ugh. That sucks!

This has taken years of applications, cold emails, LinkedIn Inmails, networking events,career counselors, and every possible job application platform. I lost track after I hit 30K over 9 months ago. I can usually do 150 applications a day but have had to dial it down for mental health reasons.

Damn I didn't know they rewarded that.

This makes my stomach hurt for you, OP. At this point you should be questioning everything y less you built a bot to do this for you.

So they reward you because you can't get a job. Talk about kicking you when you're down. Who's brilliant idea was this?

No kidding, if you applied to that many jobs the least they could do is throw you a free premium subscription.

I feel like gay men especially are constantly discriminated against in the workplace. I have been turned down for a promotion, yet again, in favor of a married heterosexual with kids.

Hello, I'm hearing product management is the space to be if you want to see a considerable bump in pay. What is the path forward to reach that role?

I am in a tech IC position. One of friends switched to FAANG by converting the profile to consultant profile. The friend who might have less tech knowledge than me is now in FAANG and earning more. If the end goal would be that the friend might one day be a product manager and me an engineering manager taking instructions from the same friend, isn't consultant profile an easier path to growth. I had been practising DSA for years and the competition is only ever growing.
