Yeah this is my first time without anything solid. With all the federal layoffs and the market being trash, it’s gonna be a while before something good comes my way

Only going back to help desk unless it’s remote.

I’m on a contract as a sub and there’s uncertainty if funding coming through to keep us past next month. I turned down a stable gig to work here. SMH.

 

[willypete]

It’s so much uncertainty now days it’s ridiculous

 

[Mark Antony]

Uncertainty plus the job market being bad for 2 years.

Same.

Probably going to get let go. And had a job paying $1,000 and a more stable government contract.

You got the associate or professional?

LinkedIn is almost becoming as useless as Indeed for me.

 

[spiderjericho]

I don’t really use Indeed but need to update my profile.

For those that are cleared, any of yall use clearance jobs?
I feel like a lot of these job boards are becoming useless. I still get pings from recruiters due to my clearance jobs profile tho

 

[spiderjericho]

I want nothing to do with WiFi during an op procedure lol.

Financial, Hospitals…are definitely on my do not apply list.

I applied for one last week. It had some ridiculous requirements which is met 80%. Haven’t heard no peep.

Brah, I'm legit ready to quit this job already, lol. For example, the office is closed today for Good Friday and I just got a long email from one of the partners complaining because he came in to work and he is being inconvenienced by various tech issues.

If you check the job posting, it should have recruiters you can message about the job

 

[Mark Antony]

Damn, yeah sounds about right. Hang in there, don't take it personal.
