You that bad at what you do?

Edit: We also hear all the time about how tech jobs are always short staffed, because there isn't enough geeks who want to major in STEM degrees.

What's going on with you, bro?

Keep your head up, OG.

The job market actually isn't good at all, and you're proof.

I wouldn't let this get in your head. Opportunities are scarce out here.

Should've focused on networking. Degrees and all that mean jack.

I failed 7 interviews before getting a FT offer. Just got raised 5% at that job yesterday to $127k base salary. Currently miscing and drinking tequila at noon on a Friday, gonna go out golfing later this afternoon. Keep hustling, king.

Whoaaaaa lmao. 5% raise, eh. Just 10% under inflation. Federal gov took about 32%. State took another 10%.

JUST LOL.

OPGenesis and FA******* thanks guys also reallly encouraging to hear about failing 7 interviews before getting an offer I believe you were the one who talked to me a few months ago when I was struggling with the hackerrank stuff, I finally did good on the hackerrank and now the next barrier is the live tech test but I’ll figure it out eventually

I might be getting a big raise within a week or so but even then, that puts me at $130k or so for 10 years of experience. I have a stress free lifestyle but it's just not enough money
Masters in EE with a focus on hardware + 2 years experience.

I'm not that far off you tbh. Companies usually count years in grad school as years of work experience, so I'm basically at $127k with 4 years w/e. Yeah it's higher, but it's not crazy.
