I never post shit like this (or read it) but this just seemed too funny (probably fake) to not post it.

This is joked about often but at this point I think that if I apply for any job at all when it comes to "self reporting". I am a non-binary and I don't identify with any race. They will be really pissed off if they eventually realize I'm not a degenerate fuckup.

Anyway, if its not fake.. This guy should just at some point say that he is realized that he is (degenerate) actually bi and wants a family at some point. Whatever, if someone is going to hire you based on stupid shit like being in the alphabet mafia then you should take advantage of that.

>Last month, I finally got a new job after being unemployed for a really long time. I had gotten pretty desperate and was beginning to think I'd never find another paying role. By the time I went to interview for this new job, I basically had nothing left in my bank account, I was late on rent, and I had bills flying at me from every angle.

That is a great way to get hired. Having some "look, I did a thing" even if its stupid and simple and hosted on someplace like git-hub or your own website. (If you are in tech).

If I am interviewing you and you can show me something you actually did on the spot or describe something you cant really post publicly because its "company work" to a very high degree I know you know what you are doing.

If it would not possibly be a doxing issue I think I would start a sub on here for "practice interviews". Post the job you are interviewing for and a volunteer poal'er would run a mock interview. Maybe that is worth doing anyway. Still thinking over the "learn stuff" sub I posted about a while back (I think its been about 2 months at this point).

I brought some boards I designed and populated. People like stuff they can touch and ask questions about.

Jobs can be generic enough - post a link to something on one of the job boards - that you can apply that to other similar things. I think if you did it right there would be no fear of doxxing.

Just another thing to add to the list. Places like this are now the "outcasts" when places like this used to be most of the internet. The tide is turning but slowly. It would be good to start this going sooner than later. I just wonder how much other people here would be willing to help. I am not a SME on everything ;) No one is. It would be really cool to have somewhere that SME's would help you out though.

I've only interviewed in 1 place in the last 20 years, so I wouldn't be much use...the place I'm at is nerd utopia, so my experience probably doesn't match what others may experience. It's literally the only place I've ever been offered the job within an hour of my interview...didn't even get home and had a call saying when can you start.

Well...other than AT&T back during the Internet/Telco boom. That doesn't really count, if you could tell them why the backwards LED didn't turn on (it's backwards) they hired you.
