Phone interview 1

God I hope crypto takes off for all of our sakes

I had an interview with Tesla that was just like this.

3-4 phone interviews which all got cancelled without notice, rearranged multiple times. Then a stupid online assessment which was absolute bollocks. Then 3 weeks before they got back.

In the end they cancelled the onsite interview without notice, and then asked me to do it another day over their shitty software

Then they said they would email me a schedule for it and they just never got back to me

This was for a job that I didnt even apply for. One of their engineers contacted ME and ASKED me to apply after he watched a video of my work.

I'd have told them to fuck off after phone interview #3 to be honest. I would never work for someone or a company that indecisive. Time is money, and they wasted yours.

Did this happen to you recently, and do you have documentation of the number of times they contacted you and the tasks they asked you to perform?

In many states in the USA you can sue employers for making you jump through hoops like this, then not actually employing you.

Basically you are suing for the daily wage they would have been paying you had you been employed, based on the days they asked you to do tasks and the time you spent traveling and at their location, + damages incurred since you wasted time on them that could have been spent seeking gainful employment elsewhere.

You're looking at a very easy $5-10k after layer takes his cut if you have documentation and are not embellishing. Just call some lawyers in your area and tell them your story. They salivate over shit like this.

This is what happens when there's not enough jobs. Employers get ridiculously picky.

You and me both fren

This was my exact experience. It was at another one of Musk's companies and they reached out to me after seeing one of my projects. Really relieved I'm not the only one.

>all of this for $14/hour entry level PER DIEM (AKA LESS THAN PART-TIME) clerical work
>Bilingual (Spanish) preferred ;^)
>have to mark down mixed-race even though I'm White to have a CHANCE at the job by filling a quota

>require internship for graduation
>don't place students in internships or help them find interships
are you sure you are going to an accredited institution, user? this sound criminal

happen to me once. I accepted another offer right before the "final presentation" step and they called me for months afterwards trying to get me to ditch the offer I took.

this would only happen on like a 60-100k+ job. there's a lot of risk in hiring unskilled people for skilled work like coding or engineering or something.

>put a bunch of programming languages on resume even if i dont know(remember) them
>include keywords like "scrum" or "agile"
>mass spam resume to companies
>HR and normies in general have no fucking idea wtf im talking but notice the mass text of programming languages
>go to job interview; not care about messing up because im apparently the only one in the room who knows what the job actually entails
>get hired
>go sit at desk and start browsing Jow Forums on 1st day

why would you wanna work for a company that wont even exist in like 10 years? TSLA has some of the nastiest shorts against it,.

This was in February/March. They're in California and I'm in Washington State. I had considered an EEO suit because they kept pressing me about the status of my health (I have some vision loss due to a retina condition), but I ultimately decided against it.

Different ID but still me.

Overall they wasted probably over a week of my life

The time difference meant I was left sitting wanking at my PC each evening waiting for calls that never fucking arrived, only to wake up the next morning to email saying they had to rearrange it.
Then for that to happen 6-7 times.

Then the technical 'assessment' which took 3 hours and was complete bullshit, asking questions on stuff you do when you are 12 years old. Why the fuck they were asking me bullshit questions on stuff I havent used for 15 years when I have a video of me doing the stuff they want for the job.

I even called them about 5 times to get an answer and they just reject the call.

not really a waste imo. this is the new normal for skilled work so the sooner you get used to it, the sooner you know how to deal with it and can avoid jumping on a grenade going forward.

Yes, its a top university in my state. Correction - a 3 month internship is required, not 6.

I'm just glad someone else went through the same thing. I've been super depressed because I felt like it was my big break but somehow it was my fault for fucking it up. Still don't have a job though.

>Mark down mixed race

How illegal is it to do this?

I even offered to pay for my own travel and hotel after the 1st technical phone interview and said I would visit and present all my work and how it can be used straight away in the products.

Tbh I'd rather stay unemployed because I would end up killing myself working in large corporates

nice larp faggot

>ever not suing a company in california
I don't know if there is a statute of limitations on this type of thing, but if you are bored and waiting for callbacks this might still work.
It's not illegal. It's illegal for them to ever ask you in a non-voluntary way though. If you can get it down on record somewhere that they asked you about your race after they pick you up, thats cha-ching settlement money.

That's it? Seriously?
I make 50k driving a forklift in a factory dude.

Starting to feel glad I didn't fall for the college meme.

all the good jobs go to people with connections. I've been on a couple teams of developers for the past 6-7 years and we have not once ever hired someone who didn't already know someone on the team. I made my connections working my way up from the bottom. taking temp jobs is also a good way to get into big companies that don't hire many new permanent employees, builds your network and sets you up for a job with them.

I would kill myself if I didn't work for a large corp. it depends on the work though. I'm a developer so a big corp is the only place where I have peers and upward mobility. small orgs are lots of times ruled by relationships or the families that own them and there's no way to move up. sure you can get 5% more on your comparable offer maybe but you won't be getting a promotion for years, if ever.

Bro I've got a PhD in the area they were looking for and got almost a million pound non-dilutive private investment into a university for my work from a consortium of their suppliers (who also sell to their competitors)

And they just decided to waste my time for 3 months and then never get back to me.

Jobs these days are basically a lottery.
Mine was at the arse end of last year btw

This thread is making me consider going back to trade school.

The problem is that I have no connections: only qualifications. I'm extremely introverted and both my parents work in an unrelated field. I honestly don't know what to do.

wtf how?

Are you all engineers? How bad is the accounting/finance career pathing? I'm looking into one of those concentrations but I don't want to be 30 just getting my first entry-level job 5 years after college

Very dependent on your business school's reputation and foot-in-the-door opportunities. Much more than any STEM field.

I am too. the only connections I have are prior managers I've had, but they are the real decisions makers.

bullshit acquaintances and linkedin friends are not real connections and don't get you jobs because they haven't seen your work and don't know if you have any real skills. if you start at the bottom and do good work, managers will want to keep you around because you are a low risk hire for them. then you can keep getting better jobs through those managers.

dont bother with university unless youre doing computer science desu. getting my meme engineering degree was the biggest mistake of my life.

wtf i made that i have no skills whatsoever

i do live in the bay area in california though so making that much is pretty normal for a high school grad

csci/engie is a much safer bet. do csci in finance and you don't have to swing dicks with the fund managers or count beans with the accountants.

Wew lad, what type of shitty dead end job was this? MD/PhD student here, I got a job reviewing repeat prescriptions for 20 euros per hour, job times whenever I want for a total of 16 hours per week minimum. The contract even states a sign-on bonus of 50k euros if I stay after I get my MD and PhD. They're literally throwing money at med students here in the Netherlands
>inb4 hurr debt
I still got to benefit from the free education system which has been replaced now.

I've been applying to shit-tier contract and non-engineer technician jobs, but I can't seem to land those either. Compared to my classmates, I would definitely say I'm above-average, but then again they're having a hard time finding work too. Pic related is what I'm sending to employers. I had to make the most of not having internships because of no connections, so I did undergrad research and a bunch of extracurricular projects instead.

DO A PHD

GPA?

Only 3.2. I was literally working on five different things outside of class at any moment, so that didn't leave enough time for homework.

thats a lot of trouble for a job at mcdonalds

yes you're definitely above average, but it's a numbers game. you have to keep moving forward and not think about "how many you've applied to" because that is toxic and will make you spiral. when I graduated I would apply somewhere and completely put it out of my mind unless contacted, you need to keep up momentum and not dwell on the no replies. it took a while for me to get to that point though, at first it was hard.

you also should be tailoring the points on your resume to match whatever you apply to. the HR scrubs going through that don't care about anything that doesn't apply to the job they're looking for. it's more work but it's the only way you'll stand out. blanketing the same thing everywhere won't help you any.

So redirect to Information Systems with finance electives? I would need to take some extra courses and reset my graduation date if I went pure compsci

brainlet, no wonder youre not getting employed

It's all so tiresome. My response rate is going down the longer this drags on.

If the competition projects are anything to go by, I'm one of the best engineers in the country.

a mix would be great, don't do pure compsci unless you really really want to. if you're not into it you will hate it. I am an analyst/developer in finance so I code but I'm not working bug reports on some huge enterprise app day in and day out wanted to off myself. a mix will get you jobs but if you want the pure academic type stuff then you should focus your degree on that.

you gotta stop tracking your "response rate" and stop telling people like family and friends if you apply somewhere. their questions on if you got it or not just makes it worse. this is the only way to exit the spiral and keep forward momentum.

How important where internships? I've applied to about 10 fall internship/leadership programs that require a 12 hour weekly time commitment and I don't want to waste my time if grades stand out more than getting coffee for some douche in an office

experience is king, no matter how you get it, so very important. you should try temp agencies if you aren't having luck with direct apps or getting internships. you can get a temp gig pretty easy and build experience and connections for the next jump.

>amerislaves

Something has got to give. I haven't had an interview in three months now.

>I haven't had an interview in three months now.
for real, this is you tracking your "response rate"

you shouldn't be thinking about how long it's been, it will only hurt your moral. focus on moving forward and tailoring you resume to the specific job you're applying to, then move onto the next one without dwelling on it.

lol. thats like being rejected by 50 women in a row and sayng "just dont think about it bro, its no big deal!"

I'm serious man this is the only way to get out of the spiral, you gotta put it out of your mind and keep moving forward

He right.

Be like Trump and focus on the future, keep moving forward. That's how winning is done.

really fantastic looking resume. I'm not in engineering, the only complaint I have is that some language looks dense and some excess detail could be omitted.

Kek, 1 interview, say "I don't know" to 10/15 of the questions, still get a job for $50k in BULGARIA where I also net $45k.
The absolute state of westerners.
P.S. USD has been on a good run lately, so closer to $46k today's value but still...

all that for mcdonalds wow you americans are fucked and cucked

I'm guessing you graduated from ASU, and I have a friend that did mechanical while I was there too. Look to apply up in Flagstaff at GORE (they make gortex). He got a job their out of college.

>ivy league not capitalized
damn that's an impressive resume though

>uncovered demographic forces driving large influx of FD and EMS calls straining city resources
so you found out nigs were fucking shit up? no one will hire you if you speak the truth

Remove your references personal infos my man, and put their names in the related projects/classes.

I would hire you desu

kek, wageslaving
not even once

They make you do this to steal your project and using it as their own. Dyor

listen up neets.
don't pin your hopes on being selected from the slush pile
find a person in the company who has roles open under them and contact them personally
they will usher you through if you can make their life easier
hth neets

I see you took none of my advice you massive faggot

Attached: IMG_3200.jpg (518x433, 148K)

I've been getting a large amount of conflicting advice where different people say to do the exact opposite thing, so I'm going with the overall average of what people say.

Let's do this again

>why is your education the first thing listed
>why is your experience not first
>why are you including references
>why is your whole resume a nightmare to read

Take notes

At the end of the day you will probably be netting even more after all expenses than the burgerfags making 100k/year

btw how do you do crypto taxes in bulgaria? Is it 10% and do you just put it under cap gains?

if you cant get a fucking job with a resume like this, then im completely fucked. Or maybe you're just autistic at interviews.

go with what I said. I actually make over $100k as a senior dev and started in the mailroom.

your biggest opportunity is tailoring your resume to every app, you might appear overqualified or too expensive to some of the places you're applying to. or the HR drone might be getting confused and tossing it.

It's 10% on withdrawal. Most people don't pay it at all, as banks don't flag anything below 5k bgn, but I have to because I have a company and I'm being closely watched.

With a resume like that, you won't be sucking any dicks on the job. No hiring manager would want that.
Maybe tone it down a bit and hide your true power level?

>i like what im doing and get paid for it.
sounds like a good deal to me
are your coworkers bros?

>15/hr nights and weekends mandatory, must be on-call 24 hrs, no benefits

Sounds like my SpaceX I interview user, I got the job though.

Wanking at the pc aounds like a perfect time for dubs.

Most people will never realize something like this in their life.
