posted before that the idea of updating my resume (or is it all CVs now) in a way that makes me look like i'm not a shitter, then doing the job hunt and interview thing gives me hives especially when job requirements pages seem specifically designed to make me feel unqualified (and seemingly only me, given some of the chucklefucks who apply here anyway)

Bloody posted:it suggests that the organization knows it undervalues its employees and doesnt care at all because the organization is rotting I sort of meant the overall practice of jumping jobs for a paybump, rather than organizational outlook on said dunno why it bothers me, it's not like i give any real shits about "company loyalty" or w/e, but it does

I got hired onto my current job of 8.5 years for C++ and that's primarily what I've been doing For the last ~3 years I've done a few side projects in C#, a couple small WPF/MVVM apps. Probably not enough to claim expertise but enough to be confident that I can look up answers How would I put that on my CV or resume or whatever it is now to give myself the best outlook for a C# job Ciaphas fucked around with this message at 21:21 on Feb 9, 2017 |

how do you all deal with applying for jobs out of city/state/province/whatever not so much the uprooting, that's a whole different kettle of worms, but like the hunting/interview/finding a new home/getting out from under your lease process

how long do y'all wait after an application, or after an interview, before you accept/decide that you're not gonna hear anything ever from that company, and move on i still want to find employment at IGT here but it's been a week and a half since I submitted my app and I haven't heard a peep it's been so long since i've job hunted that i've even forgotten basic poo poo like this, lomarf
