To land 1 interview it took 60 job applications

Being a tier 3 college grad, It took me 700 applications to get 25 shortlists, and only 7 interview calls. Converted all of them. Sometimes you’re just not allowed to participate in the race 🙂

Hey what app are you using for those kanban boards?

180 applications, 3 interviews and still nothing 🥲

I don't think it's a reflection of the market. I think we're just coming back from a crazy employee-favoured market. We're living in times of fake job reqs during hiring freezes, companies claiming that they "never fire" while putting 10-15% of their workforce on PIP and layoffs in highly profitable companies. We're in the age of the great big VC fuck up. The problem is that hiring is being linked with public perception, and as a result there is a lot of secrecy around things that were very transparent. It's very likely that 20-30% of your job reqs are just out there to show the market that this company "can" hire in these times.

Is it premium version?

skill issue

I've only been getting ghosted by recruiters after THEY reach out to me expressing interest in my profile! It's always after they ask about salary, notice period etc. My salary is okayish for my level and np is 30 days so I'm guessing they are cheaping out as much as they can. Can't wait for QE when tech companies start having competition again and the ones who were cheaping out all this time struggle to clear their tech debt.

Hi! Curious to know how you are applying for the jobs? I am also in a job hunt and any tactical insights would help! How much time did it take you to apply for 60 jobs? How many applications do you submit each day?

You guys are landing interviews?

What site is this? How is it able to track applied jobs on the “Job tracker” board? Do you manually enter the Job applied detail here?

Rookie numbers ✨

Bro I’m facing somewhat similar experience. I have almost 2 YOE(as SDE) and I m facing lots of difficult in getting my resume shortlisted in different company. I don’t think my resume lacks in so much skill that it can be rejected by a recruiter.Out of 60 applications I have applied I just got 4 rejection and 0 positive responses. I have no clue what to do.

I am a fresher will be graduating this year and I have been applying off campus for full time opportunities and I am in no luck of landing an interview, I am mostly ghosted after OA, even though it went very well, still no response and its tiring tbh. I have been doing internship since my third year and I have internship experience of 1.5 years as an ML Engineer and backend Engineer, still no luck and at couple of place got an interview and got to know that their full time salary is less than what I am earning as an intern right now and hence no offer🥲

Hello, are you open to talking to me for a news story on your experience in job hunting? We can do this without revealing your identity.

After having good programming skills and from tier 1 college Applied for 400 companies different roles And 20+ referrals Got 6 calls 1 gone in negotiations 2 gone in final round 2 got offer 1 lost in first round

Applied for more than 200+ applications as far as I remember. I managed to get 50+ calls. Some of them don't have a budget and a few interviews are cancelled because the position got filled, one offer revoked. Rejected in rest. What I have observed till now, if your profile is not getting shortlisted, reason might not be you are not qualified. Also, the hiring process has changed a lot. Earlier it used to be DS Algo, LLD, and HLD. You can give an interview in any programming language of your preference. But nowadays, it is language specific, lots of questions asked on the current work, technology specific and the rest are there. There are high your interviews went well and you still get rejected because the competition is so high. Also, expectations have also increased. So, Keep grinding.

Does the salary/package bucket you’re in also could be a reason for this ? Higher exp. leads to high package and hence the market is low, so it’s taking many applications? If you don’t mind, can you share your salary bucket ?
