Why are there so many job postings that I have applied for but nothing happening? Are the jobs that are posted truly open? I know we are in 4th quarter and wasn’t sure if corporation’s like to hire then?

I know that some companies do slow hiring during the fourth quarter. With inflation, the dow, and impending recession/current recession where it is, I wouldn't be surprised if hiring is just slowing in general. I wouldn't give up though, every company won't stop hiring, and there are definitely still jobs out there.

Could be lots of reasons. I'd probably start by making sure your resume is up to par. You can either share it here for feedback, or you can hire an expert (check Fiverr or upwork) to optimize it for you. If you're sending out lots of applications but not getting any call backs, chances are it's a problem with your resume that can be fixed. Good luck!

Yes, totally agree with R2. You should make your own resume. Recruiters can easily tell if it is written by a resume writer.

Have you tried checking your resume? You need to make sure that the qualifications you possess fits the position that you applied for.

Of course

One of the reasons is that the competition is really really tough. A lot of appicants are lining for a single role.

Google is on a hiring freeze. If that’s the case, then I am confused how come people on LinkedIn keeps saying they just got hurried by Google.

Can someone from Google tell us if it’s an hiring freeze or just a way to get us from applying right now. I am very lost if I should apply or stop.

1) What is your response when asked what makes you stand out as a candidate in a job interview?

2) how do you highlight other skills that may not otherwise look transferable on paper?

3) how do you combat what seems like “lack of experience” or being “too junior” for the role?

Hello Fishes,

But now if I leave the current organisation without a 30 day notice period they will hold the salary + buyout amount. So it means 2 months salary loss. What should I do ? Absconding or salary loss?
