    It’s hopeless in this shitty recession. I’ve been applying since 2019, and still no progress. Applied on wellfound, indeed, internshala.

    College is a fucking waste of time. And no amount of open source contribution matters, it’s all bullshit.

    I wasted my time contributing and creating issues for GitLab and Nixpkgs. At most, I had an opportunity for MLH, fucking lost it.

    All I have is a bunch of stupid t-shirts, keychains and stickers from GitLab. As if that can feed me.

      Since 2019? Something must be wrong with your cv if you are getting no calls lol

      The market in that period and 2021/2022 was throughly very good. Right now it is the shit

        The market is never good in India, when you have a million CS grads trying to compete for a few thousand open positions. And it just went downhill after 2021/2022. And yes, I am very picky about not going the service-based route, but that’s because I’d rather be a hippie wagie than a IT sweatshop wagie.

        I have also optimized my CV for ATS. I’ve custom-made my own template, which is very similar to Jake’s resume.

      Having similar issues. Probably applied for 500 jobs in the last 3 months. 2 interviews. I have 20 years experience and have built my own MVC PHP framework.
      I’m literally overqualified for most of these jobs. I did find that rebuilding my resume to be more modern (ai friendly) really increased my resume views etc. but still nothing
