jeebus bob posted:But if that application is unlikely to get you an interview, what's the point? Do you derive satisfaction from the symbolic act of pressing send on a web form? Probably. I buy Powerball tickets knowing that I'll lose because buying one gives me a buy in to dream about what I would do with the money if I did win. Similar vibe

Similar vibe It's just, like, a handful of days where you can have something to think about in your idle moments other than how much poo poo sucks. Good use of $10.

the worst job application i ever filled out was IT director for some NGO, and I did the usual bullshit of uploading your resume, then entering your information and work history into the next several form screens of what was already in the resume. after that was a page with like 10 essay questions, dumb poo poo like "what do you believe the role of non-profits are in todays society" anyway i assumed i would definetly at least get an interview because no one in their right mind would spend the 4 hours it took to me apply for 1 job and there would probably be a limited candidate pool. well you can guess how that went, a thank you form letter 6 months later letting me know the position had been filled. too bad this was before the days of chatGPT where i could have just copied and pasted an answer in in a couple minutes.

That's a shock *job advice voice* did you try saying in your cover letter that you really wanted the job

The pilot guy who makes videos about pilot stuff I watch on youtube is doing a series on how Boeing managed to piss their entire reputation down the drain to chase quarterly number that seems very this thread appropriate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCbHpJShoXk

My advice is getting years of experience in a very niche technical field before anyone else finds out about it Until that bubble pops I just pick a job from whatever companies are harassing me to work for them
