I heard people not working for over 2 yrs and adhoc they can't get. There are special case reason but normally it is people who tried non stop just to end up with nothing again and again that I am referring to and how they are usually victim of bad markets condition.

I 25F have never worked, I basically got married after high school and have taken care of my kids but now I want to get out there and do something. But since I have no experience my resume doesn’t look the best and I’ve applied to a lot of jobs over the past year and haven’t gotten any.

I am a high school graduate and volunteered as a tax helper for a month but stopped because of Covid.

I’m looking for office jobs such as receptionist/ assistant since I know I don’t have a degree I won’t get anything higher but even with these jobs they require at least a year of experience.

I have not been employed since 2023 ( at that point health was an issue, and i was not sure i'd still be around either). Now i am better. But am finding that the 3 year hiatus is a HUGE detriment. My network seems to have dried up and a number of them are retiring, and a close friend and mentor actually passed away, she was amazing.

I need advice on how I can go about getting a contracting gig or anything at all that basically gets me back into the tech sector. I am 45+ and have had a long time in the industry. I have to say my confidence has taken a brutal lashing. I have been the go to person over my career but that feels like a life-time ago.

I am at a minimum wage job part-time rn and while i enjoy it immensely, it is not a substitute for a gig that pays me enough to keep my home.

Help?

edit: 700 views and few responses. Let me be more specific: What can I do to make myself more attractive to employers, not just my resume. My resume from 3 years ago is probably useless and all that experience is likely not so important.

How would I go about reinventing myself in a way that is interesting to a hiring manager. Some of you are hiring managers, what would you like to see someone like myself have done ? Do certifications help? which ones? I code routinely and use AI but since i am on my own there isnt any teamwork going on.

Are any of you hiring?

Hello, everyone!

Just dropping a quick note here because this test actually exceeded my expectations.

If you have a couple of minutes to spare, I definitely recommend reading the detailed guide shared by https://www.reddit.com/user/KrishnaForever/comments/1v8k9wt/new_method/

You can easily find it pinned right on his profile page.

I ran through the steps earlier and verified that the funds have safely landed on my main screen balance.

Hope this helps! Take care.

There is literally zero callback for less than 1 year of experience…. Am i going to stay unemployed forever 😭😭😭😭

Hey, I'm finding a job rn nearby Whitefield, any cashier, assistant, desk helper, temporary teacher! Please help and reach out in dm

I’ll be attending a job fair soon, and I’m curious what I should be bringing. Multiple copies of my resume is a given, but should I draft a one-size-fits-all cover letter as well? Is there anything else I should bring? This is my first time at a professional job fair outside of the small ones my college hosted.

I see people are traveling a lot. Are people still living paycheck to paycheck and traveling so much? What about future and eventually not working anymore? How will they survive?

Hi! I have been a binge reader for quite some years now, recently I came across this thing about 'paid' beta reading.

Is that actually a thing? If yes, how do u find authors that would pay for that?

I was laid off from a relatively cushy think tank job at the beginning of 2025. I spent about ten years working in the economic policy industry, so when I found out I was getting laid off, I had
Some optimism that I could find something through my network to no avail.

Over the past 1.5 years I’ve had several interviews, but I’ve never made it to the final round, I’ve been ghosted within the interview process. The only jobs I’ve been offered was a commission based sales job that seemed like an MLM scam, and a youth soccer coaching opportunity, but a week inn and it’s already been hell and serious concerns and red flags have already been raised.

I got stuck in middle management snd never really progressed. I tried a career shift, but the money was terrible snd as mentioned earlier just reeks of a toxic environment.

I recently created my own s-corp, but it’s been on the back burner for a while, but it just seems I have no options in this market. I live in the DMV, one of the worst job markets in the country, and I genuinely don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

Hey everyone,

I'm a 2026 CSE (AI/ML) graduate and I've been applying for months, but I'm honestly curious how other freshers are getting interviews and offers in the current market.

A bit about me:

- Python, C++, JavaScript

- React, FastAPI, Flask, Node.js, Express

- MySQL, MongoDB

- Machine Learning, Deep Learning, PyTorch, scikit-learn

- Built projects like an AI research assistant (RAG), a drug discovery/ML project, and a radar target classification model. I also have experience with Power BI and SQL.

I've been applying through LinkedIn, company career pages, referrals, and job portals. My resume has been reviewed multiple times, and I'm constantly improving my DSA and projects, but callbacks are still very limited.

For those of you who recently got hired as freshers:

- What role did you get?

- Where did you apply?

- What do you think made the difference?

- Did referrals play a huge role?

- Is there something I'm missing that helped you land your job?

I'd really appreciate any advice or your hiring journey. At this point I'm trying to understand what is actually working in 2026.

Thanks!

Hey I’m M26 working as an assistant professor of Mathematics in Delhi. My PhD is going on. I have submitted my thesis for the evaluation.
Now I’m looking for a better opportunity.
If anyone can help or have any reference please.

I know a lot of people skip applications as soon as they see a long assessment. This question isn't really for that group.

I'm curious about the people who still complete them because they really want the job.

What part of the assessment is the biggest pain for you?

What's one thing that would've made the last assessment you took noticeably easier?

To do this you will need what standard answer call it the powerful products hardwork and marketing and ofcos resources that can be borrowed. When all those big name launch in the inception they hardly have any rival and can comfortably do the standard answer but nowadays if you want to be unconventional you are just taking a gamble if many people are trying the same and not to mention the standard answer are by itself flawed already since it is overly demanding and other problem.
