Zoomer Suffering

[Anonymous No.55893937]

as a fresh zoomer grad out of university with a comp sci degree, my life is suffering. There is no tech jobs, and just applying for them is a fucking hell scape. Boomers and Gen X had it so fucking easy when applying to jobs its not even funny. I am so tired of being gaslighted by my boomer and Gen X relatives that say there is jobs, but you just need to apply more. As zoomers what can we do to mitigate the suffering of job applying for 100s of jobs that companies don't even bother emailing you back? If you are a lucky you get a automated email response thanking you for at least applying. Also I am white and a male so finding a job is extra hard for me.

I have a co-op from before back in 2020. But now it seems like getting a job is impossible, all my friends are saying the same thing. I think its because Jpow turned off the money printer that companies stopped hiring.

The fact that a degree doesn't cut it these days and you have to do an internship and network is bullshit. What happens when everyone now has done an internship and networked? Everyone going to college isn't the fucking answer. They don't want to say it out loud, but many people going to college leads to oversaturation. It's unsustainable. Instead of hiring domestic people, they will hire foreign people who will accept getting paid lower because it's way more than anything they would make in their home country. Look at the STEM field. Too many people in that field and wages have stagnated. A Master's degree is the new Bachelor's degree. Companies have gotten lazy and cheap with training people. It's bullshit.
>>55893937
Good luck, OP. I'm hoping you make it out of this hellhole we call Earth. Remind to you that a study found out that all those bullshit questions they ask in interviews have little to do with your performance in the job itself.

You need the right keywords in your resume and if you graduated with honors, say Magna Cum Laude, don't put that on your resume. The system that filters out resumes for HR will read that as cum and kick your resume out. It's retarded. Use Chatgpt to optimize your resume and use keywords from whatever job you're responding to.

I don't understand this "degree = give me job" attitude. If you wanted to work in computer science then just do it?? All the resources are online and it's FREE. The fact that you didn't think to yourself by your 2nd year of college
>"wow this shit is useless and has nothing to do with industry SWE"

is on you. My advice, start working and learning with side projects and start leet coding now. You should have been doing this shit 3 years ago but the 2nd best time to plant a tree is today.

If you've lurked at all here for the last 3 years you should have known that the tech bubble would burst eventually. At 18 I knew that shit was unsustainable so I decided to just major in accounting instead. Now I'm 20, have an internship lined up, and will likely get a full time offer before I graduate. Sure I might make less in the long run but I'd rather make less living on easy street than have to compete with 300 other people just for the chance of a high paying job.

companies did stop hiring like they were in 2020-22, they fired many people in 2023. Eventually projects will pick back up and they will start hiring again but its more competitive because so many lost their jobs just recently. Basically it will take time to pick back up, hopefully you can find something when the new budgets come in at the end of the year

Congratulations on falling for a meme degree. This isn't '21 anymore where you can get $200k+ starting from a coding bootcamp. Also, spamming hundreds of jobs applications is a massive waste of time.

I will continue posting this in every college thread until the end of time, but college is useless. College loans and college degrees are a cash cow for everyone except the degree holder. You don’t even learn any useful knowledge.

I’ve had people with a fucking masters work under me 5 years into my career now who knew less than when I started and I dropped out of highschool. I self taught myself white collar work. Yes there’s some privilege involved, but in general you’re better off not having debt looming over you while you figure out how to play the game.

The reason college degrees are even a thing is that boomer wagies wanted to lower THEIR risk, they wanted their jobs to be safe and locked behind expensive walls of a college campus. The fact that college is accessible to every single domestic American through loans should give you a clue yes, as you originally talked about.

The only knowledge worth shit is not any knowledge that you can buy, certainly not in America.
