I've literally been contracted out to make brand new tenants and the most I had access to at once was maybe less than a dozen? That's a crazy amount of tenants and I'd be using B2B or something else to help consolidate. I don't know if it's just me but as a admin... Passkeys don't seem that useful? At least not with MFA and Yubikeys... I just don't see why I'd use them over that?

I'll try again - possibly I didn't give it enough time to apply or something. Have you actually confirmed this works, allowing the AAGUID and adding a 1Password passkey?

We have a mobile stipend so it's less of an issue with MFA. We also do not require MDM with MFA, just authenticator. So, there's no control or tracking risk if all you are doing is MFA, MDM is only required if you do email.

I can sell it to the government and price each key at $9999.

HR departments are currently absolutely flooded. They report getting hundreds to thousands of applications for every position posted - because people are using AI to write resumes and shotgunning them out, in addition to AI powered "we apply for you" services doing the same.

The market is fuckin bonkers right now. I just posted an internship position that's basically tier 1 helpdesk for a construction company plus we'll teach you stuff about the industry. Hybrid remote need to live near the office type thing. We're not a major player company, pure mid market in a specialized field, so no one would have heard of us. I got 52 apps in 2 days and climbing. 50% were people who did an undergrad in India currently doing serious masters degrees in the states who are shotgunning resumes out to everything, probably automated. All blanket rejected because they would be bored to tears, this isn't an FTE path, and almost all were in various other parts of the US. 30% were people pursuing valid undergrad degrees (mostly security, which I don't need) between 500 and 2000 miles from the office. Once again, just shotgunning out there and applying to everything. Of the remaining 20%, half were people gunning for FTE and ignoring the intern part of the req. Of the remaining, I have one great candidate and two good. I'm hoping for the great one because they're local, have the basics of the skillset I want, and are trying to learn things my team can teach. It's fuckin wild right now and your best bet is networking and nepotism.

I posted a part time helpdesk position over the summer with a very clear "THIS IS NOT A PROGRAMMING JOB, MUST BE ABLE TO BUILD A COMPUTER" header and I still got a ton of applicants from people who had master's degrees in CS. I was looking more for somebody who had an associates degree or something like that.

If you have a local community college, reach out to the teachers or the career office there and you'll probably have your pick of candidates.

I had to aim low to even get a job in my field. I've been a sysadmin and a consultant and having to go back to L1 Help Desk has been a gigantic depressionfest. You're currently competing with a massive amount of people more skilled than you who are also aiming low in this abysmal market, you might want to consider doing the same.

My company is doing layoffs today and IT is the last part of the exit interview and, man, it's heartbreaking. People at one of the lower points in their life and I need to sit down with every one of them and ask them for their equipment and make them go through a data security checklist. Not to mention, a lot of these folks are my friends It's part of the job but it's the worst part
