I keep jumping into conversations of other tech writers that are job hunting after my quick turn around a couple of months ago.
Folks are desperate for a secret way to crack this market. They are desperate for a way to blame themselves in order to find the thing they are doing wrong that's stopping them from getting interviews, much less offers.
I keep saying that it comes down to luck, but nobody likes that answer. They want something they can do, that's in their control.
I wish I could offer them something. It's just not the case.

The Guardian | ‘Completely horrible’: UK job hunters share frustration with AI interviews by Jane Clinton
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
Nearly half of UK job seekers (47%) have now faced an AI‑driven interview, and 30% say they have abandoned a hiring process because of it, according to a Greenhouse survey of 2,950 active applicants. Respondents describe the experience as awkward, impersonal and often humiliating: a university student likened it to “talking to a mirror” with no human feedback, a scientist felt “not even sure anybody watched the interview,” a marketing consultant found the format “completely horrible for the autistic brain,” and a project manager noted the AI’s inability to recognise pauses or body language. Many interviewees complain that questions are generic, time‑limited, and that feedback is vague, while the technology’s one‑way nature leaves candidates unable to engage the employer. The overall picture is a growing frustration with AI interview tools that many feel need a human touch to be effective.

I am tired of being broke by the end of the month, so please help me find a job.
I am looking for a Entry Level Remote Data Entry job.. I have never really done any data entry in my life, but as I live in the suburbs in New Jersey in the United States, and do NOT drive… most other jobs are pretty much off limits to me. I have experience using Excel (and Excel like programs), word processors, and computers. If you are looking for someone to do some data entry work I am willing to send you my resume. Just direct message me, and I will email you my resume.
