      you should troon to fill some quota

      Unironically this experience has made me believe those diversity questionnaires really don't do anything because I check a box at some companies and not others and it hasn't made any difference

        They only exist to disqualify you. It is imperative that you select
        >decline to self identify
        On everything. That way if they do hire you it won't hurt their DEI numbers. This is real and IMPERATIVE.

      it is what is is anon
      at this point all we can do is learning either graphic design, something related to politics or become a lawyer

      true, now with gender shit and be a little more inclusive, while it's not like EVERYBODY is trans in the workspace, the few that apply get a bit more privilege given their status/"different identity", understand what i mean?
      anyway, i don't even work that much, i hate large crowds and small spaces, so i work from home while investing on different coins and shit and using dextools for as many trades as i can

      They make more than 120k actually if you’re willing to travel. Like 160k

      Yeah, but nursing is a psychically torturous job. Frick that noise. I'll stick with my comfy office where I pretend to work all day.

    Can’t you just become a troony? These days you don’t need to cut off your wiener or even your balls. It’s a win win. You could also harass cuties and your employer will be reluctant to do anything. Unironically grab her by the pussy.

    No joke, since making this thread I have received THREE separate rejections and they all highlight how hopeless this all is.
    >apply for something in my major that I have previous internship experience in
    >rejected
    >apply for something adjacent to my major with a lot of crossover
    >rejected
    >apply for something not really related to my major but requiring a lot of similar skills
    >rejected

    They also highlight the gems of
    >apply within five days of job posting
    >keep getting rejections that say they didn't even look at my resume because I applied too late
    >start applying to jobs within 24 hours of them getting posted
    >now they look at my resume and then decide to reject me

          Thank you CScuck. Because a ton of you flooded that market it left MEs in low supply. That + the coof turning a generation into morons means I’ll basically have 0 serious competition until I retire, especially given the 10%+ job growth rate
          >inb4 AI and will take your job
          chatgpt4 can barely solve a basic statics problem half the time. The one benefit to Indians shitting up the internet with their homework problem “solutions” is that all the LLMs have been fed complete garbage in terms of engineering information.

    usajobs.com and be willing to move. GS7/9/11/12 pathway and leave benefits. DoD has to hire US citizens, plenty of jobs are new grad only, and job security is based. I watched my pal get laid off in 2020 while I got comfy telework. Starting pay sucks and you'll be capped salary wise at middle class (100-110k) though.

    Yeah so did I, and I spent the entire summer giving campus tours to summer camp field trips.
