you always feel like a moron if they gave a serious interview. be more alarmed when it feels breezy and easy, because that means they aren't taking you seriously

highly nervous about the technical interview i have next week for a "network engineer" position that doesn't have any network engineering information in the job details (but has a lot of computer hardware touching in it). the business is a managed service provider, which seems they just do contract IT for SMB so those businesses don't have to hire their own in-house IT folks. i'm probably blindly stepping into a nightmare job

this networking engineer technical interview is tomorrow and i'm trying to not panic. i've looked over the OIS model like ten times and I keep forgetting various parts and the order. it's just an entry level job at an msp, but also i really feel like i've got no idea what i'm doing

after two interviews that I felt went pretty well:

quote:

Unfortunately we're going to continue our search with other applicants. You are a good culture fit for us but we're needing deeper technical expertise / experience. We don't bring in "tier 1" support folks here which is what I think will give you the experience we're looking for. I know you are determined to get that and I'd love to circle back with you in the future.

guess i’ll just go bury myself in a hole or something. that “tier 1” comment hurts. almost like “you did a good job scamming your way through two interviews, you idiot”

in other news i'm starting to get cold emails from recruiters again so i think the market may be turning around

you have to beat recruiters off of you with a stick


I can’t get a recruiter to even recognize I exist


we are not the same
