Sounds like you're going to use that Priority Pass to travel back in time and learn all the things you already needed to know to get the job.

To be fair at least it's not describing 3 entirely different job roles. But these 4 things: job listing posted:• You have experience in AI/ML and MLOps Are not entry level asks.

My initial reaction to m365 copilot is… whatever? I could see it saving 30 minutes of work a month to make the price justifiable but so far it hasn’t made me go “wow AI is the future” on the level that Microsoft wants me to. Almost feels like the documents need to be written in a way that was intended for copilot to be able to parse later.

This new company is a bunch of dickheads with retirement funding. They cut the 401k in half with the other half now company stocks which are poo poo, but you only get them after 4 years rolling. Also my 401k this last year at this org was up 4%. My old 401k at my last job was up 30% during the same time.

Also it takes six years to get 100% vested, with a minimum of two years before any percentage. I don’t plan to be here for longer than 2 1/2 so it’s basically pointless.

Yeah, I'd be interested but out of the things quoted all I know is Linux and networking, I'm looking for an "entry level" (I expect it to need experience outside of cloud engineering/devops) position because I want to learn those things. Also if you want me to be away from home an average of 13 weeks a year you have better be paying really well.

What's the German word for the emotion you feel when someone asks "does it make sense to have you in this meeting", you say "no", and they actually abide by it? Edit: goons involved with/running MSPs, if you're interested in a new client, an old friend of mine is looking on behalf of his company. 120 users, first level helpdesk, remote is fine, located in the Baltimore metro area. I'm still trying to get more details on tech stacks and scope. He's a really good friend so I don't want to do him dirty by just trying to get a finders' fee from the one MSP I worked at a decade ago, whose owner was not great and whose senior techs were brown lipstick brigade members MJP fucked around with this message at 19:26 on Jan 23, 2024 |

Our place is trying to do regular in-office days by hotdesking with a laptop and nothing else. Someone in management made the mistake of asking me what I thought about it today and I told them that as long as they are happy for these occasions to be time that is set aside for internal meetings or just purely aimed at socialising then it will work fine, but I cannot get any productive work done on a laptop screen in an open plan environment so any future occurrences are going to be handled the same as they were today - with me scheduling actual work to happen either side of these in-office days. My fairly blunt answer was partly motivated by me not seeing any future at this place and it being healthier to vent than put on an act, but it seems like it was a catalyst for other people to stop pretending and most of the department ended up with a variation of "yeah what he said" as their feedback. Would have been nice to not have been the one to stand up with a large target on their back but I guess at least it didn't end with everybody else pretending it was only me that had a problem.

Having any three items from those first three lines would make you a senior admin in any sane company. I assume it's a standard keyword job posting, assuming one gets to a human interview they don't expect all that. It's still lovely they did it that way.. but that's just how things are now.

Actual entry-level positions are targeted at people who are new to the career or specialty being hired for. They will have hobby-level experience (if that) of one of the technologies in that listing. That listing as published requires 4-6 years of professional experience.

AreWeDrunkYet posted:This one really stands out too. What could go wrong with having enterprise apps architected by junior employees? The “have experience with architecting applications in a cloud environment” was the big  to me as well. That hiring experience on reddit sure lines up with this job description. I’ve seen my share of bad hiring processes but nothing as bad as this. Worst thing I went through, was luckily fairly short. Teamlead and the 2 managers above me all asked me repeatedly for several months to apply for a permanent role as I was a contractor. I didn’t really want to, but they increase in pay was significant and I figured I could leverage that if I wanted to jump ship in the future. Management and teams were good and the work was interesting. The only hoop I had to jump through was a cultural fit interview. The manager of my manager warned me this was a thing. It was done with someone from HR and a manager from a different BU and he had no say in the result whatsoever. I figured it wouldn’t be a big deal as I already was contracting with them for 1.5 year at that point, knew the company / culture fairly well and was one of my teams top IC’s. The moment I walked in I already got ~~bad vibes~~ from these 2 people. The woman from HR had worked at the same company I worked at for several years and shittalked it for the entire interview. She was discrediting everything I did there as “little league stuff” and irrelevant. It was their biggest competitor and only slightly smaller than they were (still multi billion dollar profits). The manager just went through my resume and was talking down on anything I had on it. There was almost no talk about culture, motivation or personal growth. It’s the only interview to date where I didn’t ask any questions at the end because even if this was a drill, I had no intentions to work there anymore. Unsurprisingly I didn’t make the cut. Their feedback was that I may be a top performer right at that point but both interviewers had strong doubts if I’d be able to stay ahead of the curve in the future. My managers boss told me he didn’t like this part of the process either and I was unlucky with the gatekeeping hiring manager that was assigned to interview me. “But no worries, we can try again in a few months! Maybe we’re lucky and get someone less backwards and can get you onboard finally”. I told him that after this experience I had no interest in working for them at all anymore. If I hadn’t applied for the positions I’d probably stayed on for another year, maybe 2. But the experience soured me on the company as a whole so I started applying elsewhere and ledt with 2-3 months. Both managers and the teamlead begged me to wrap up a running project and stay on for another 6 months. I did think about it but declined. Should’ve told them the company wasn’t a cultural fit that far into the future.

Just had my first final interview since starting job hunting in November. I need to not get my hopes up but it would be such a great fit for what I'm looking for and I really enjoyed talking with the two people on the interview, a good culture fit would be nice. Also while it would be a 6 month CTH (boo) it would be about 10k a year more than I was making before and about 70k more than I'm making on unemployment!
