Approaching one year since uni graduation, and I am still unemployed. Does this happen in your cunt?

the end of the world as we know it

What did you major in?

dont be sorry for the shitty typing, be sorry for the shitty pathetic faggot you are

what is wrong with finns

Common. Just keep sending your resume, someone will eventually pick you up.

are you only applying in your area or across the country?

Spend as much time with your parents and grandparents as you can

I've been focusing on applying to Seattle, NYC, Austin, San Francisco, LA, and Dallas.

>YAYYY SUMMER I LOVE DRINKING BEEER BEEER BEER XDDD GOTTA ENJOI LIIIFE XDDDD
>OH HECKERINO IVE GOT NO GOSH DARN JOB MY LIFE IS A RUIN NO ONE HAA EVER EXPERIENCED WHAT IM GOING THRU!!
>COUNSELING!!

you should just try anywhere at this point and then move to those areas later. any job would be better than sitting for a year waiting for something there. once you get your first job you can just leave in a year or two

$28k

It's actually harder outside of big cities because smaller companies are not as willing to take a risk on a candidate that has been unemployed for a year.

How many internships?
Did you do side-projects?
Did you make a CV and apllied BEFORE graduating?
What are you doing to show that you are a good candidate?

There's literally NO EXCUSE not to work or do projects besides studying. I even met once this art chic which told me she was looking for job in months and asked if she had a portfolio or work experience. "No, I was too busy with Uni and the course load was too heavy".

Like what the hell. You gotta sell yourself in the industry.

Get used to the idea of taking a year off. I took two before I finally started getting serious about finding work. And by 'serious about finding work' I mean getting recommendations through friends, families and professors because those will always connect you faster and easier than just being another resume on someone's desk.

Yes, I've done a few side projects. My most complex project is a website I started building two years ago, and I still am actively developing. It has gone gone from just a weekend thing, to something that actually provides me some (relatively small) income every day.

If you mean resume, of course. CVs are not used for regular jobs in the US, only academia.

I'm working on my own skills, constantly learning, and being active in the community, I've attended two conferences last year.

but there are big companies outside those select cities, but whatever, it is your life. hopefully you get something this next year but if you dont you can only blame yourself for being a picky beggar

graduated with a degree in CS same time as you. im a carpenter now. kek

That was the advice given to me by a recruiter at my school. I'm just applying where the jobs are, it's not like I am trying to be picky or something.

>I've attended two conferences last year.

Conferences are just there to meet people. Do you do that?

>Yes, I've done a few side projects. My most complex project is a website I started building two years ago, and I still am actively developing. It has gone gone from just a weekend thing, to something that actually provides me some (relatively small) income every day.

I mean that's something.
If they are software or hardware projects, eventually put them on Github.

>0 internships
Unlucky but work with what you have.

>you mean resume, of course. CVs are not used for regular jobs in the US, only academia.

Well here you send in your CV/Resume (is here basically almost the same) + a good written motivational letter

You don't believe how many people fuck that up. Starting from copying from the internet layouts to graphical overhead and simply a lot of nonsense. Let someone with experience read over that. Eventually post that here somewhere else and let it evulate from people with experience.

'sup monkey

>evulate
*evaluate

Like, just anonymize it. I think Yas Forums has someone threads like that up as well or /adv/.

sounds comfier than being a code monkey

I DON'T WANNA BE A TEACHER FUCK
WHY DID I DO BIOLOGY

This happened to me
I didn't get counseling and my self image was destroyed and now it's been 4 years of being a NEET and I'm worthless and my degree is worthless and I want to die every day and don't know what to do and my parents hate me and I hate me

This will never fail to depress me.

Graduated with cs in december and been working in sf since January.

not really. code monkeys make good money

graduated with EE bachelors in december and I plan on being a NEET until starting a masters or phd in the fall, pushing off getting a job for 4-6 years

What do I even do to get back into CS with a fucking 4 year gap.

Every day I feel like slashing my wrists like a teenage girl

Every day gets worse

Why pushing off the inevitable?
Especially while you could already be proficient in your focus of area in that timespant (4-6yrs) instead starting from zero

It seems in the US code monkeys are paid 50% higher than here for the same things

I'm studying music and want to teach and play it but something gives me the feeling I'll be poor and still struggling with my mental health until I kill myself at age 40ish.

why the change of heart

23 years old never had a job, studying biology, unpaid internship, fear of becoming a teacher, what to do I do? I guess teaching english is an option

manual labor is just better isn't it? at least when you have your own business, being pressured to be constant learning new things is hell, i'm so tired of studying, I just can't remember everything anymore

yeah that's why cs degrees are so popular these days and why interviews are getting harder

cuz i couldn't find a job

no it's crap. my smarter friends are earning $100k+ right out of school

dont really want to get a job yet but also EE jobs are boring imo. i had an internship and realized and it was mind numbingly boring so now i am going for lasers and optics type degree. ms and phd is usually preferred for the jobs i want to get too

I hate this world so fucking much

I don't know how much longer I can keep going.

It's been 4 years and all I've done is a bit of website building for personal stuff, I can't even apply anymore.

I want to curl up and hide forever

I have been making 120k+30k stocks in sf since graduating this december and about to change jobs to make 150-170k (depending on my negotiation skills) in NYC or seattle. AMA

what kind of coding challenges did the interviewers give you

Lawyer and economist here. By the time I was studying for the bar examination a year after I graduated from law school I had a really tough time, had to do Uber for a year because I discovered that a degree in economics is worth shit without some sort of complement to it.

Now that is all set up life got pretty comfy, manage to work for a good firm and I finally managed to use my economics degree for something (main area is commercial and financial law).
Try to get as many friends and contacts you can in the area you want to work, that's worth more than any degree.

BTW, my life is still shit because I live in this shithole of a country, but at least I'm not poor or unemployed now.

60k not paying them back
its either bernie or im leaving the country forever

usually you get 2 technical, 2 behavioural, 1 system design.

you better start packing then leech, bernout is done for at this point

I graduated in 2013 and I’m still a NEET. Many such cases, I’m afraid.

To be honest, I don’t feel like I’m built for this world and the very prospect of working makes me feel physically sick with dread.

chemical engineer here
3 years since graduation still can't find a job. if i can't find any this year I'm gonna do a hero

wouldn't mind getting a job but i'm scared of driving

All you guys had to do was give him a chance.

i tried bro
he was literally too smart to win

>San Francisco
Forget it, not worth it.

Can't wait to graduate, over 30 years of age, with my high I'm demand history degree, having only worked for 3 years.

I don't think CS is for me

But I don't know what else to do with my degree

me too, I just want to sit home and watch cartoons until my organs fail

Is CS your major?

I'd love to be productive, but this world, particularly this country, isn't kind to musicians unless they prostitute themselves

So why not prostitute yourself?

Holy fuckkk

Tell more. Why didn't you go back to school or do something at least ?

Yes I guess, I spent like 8 months without a job after I graduates

My major was electrical engineering with a minor in CS, but I spent like 2 years pursuing CS jobs and not getting anything (nothing really EE related in this country especially with a 4 year gap).

I made a lot of mistakes, I don't think even grad school would take me now.

Well, 2020 is shaping up to be a good year for self-isolation, lest you catch coronacooties. Still another 2-3 decades until congestive heart failure kicks in though.

I think CS is fine but this obsession with micromanaging workers (Scrum) sucks any enjoyment out of it

Suicidal depression

I'm slightly (Slightly) over it now but don't know how to reconstruct my life. I'm just starting to go out of the house and talk to people again, but I'm just too old for how autistic and stupid I am.

I don't know what to do and my parents are getting older, when they die I probably will too. I didn't want life to go this way.

I'm 24 and only did like a year of community college and dropped out when I was 19. I was considering going back because I feel like I'm stuck at a dead end job but I'm still not sure what I would even want to study.

what do you do now? Retail?

Don’t most musicians get some kind of youtubebux these days and put all their songs up online? Apparently live shows don’t really pay that well.
