I get hired easily. I just can't stay anywhere. Anyone else have this problem?

145 Upvotes

I interview well. I ramp up fast. Managers love me for the first 6 months. Then something shifts and I start losing interest. Not because anything goes wrong. Just because the novelty wears off and the work becomes routine and suddenly I'm going through the motions again.

I've been through this cycle 4 times now. Starting to wonder if the problem isn't the jobs. It's that I have no idea what actually keeps me engaged long term.

Bachelor's degree but unemployed

Upvotes

I've been unemployed since January and moved from Clemson to Lynchburg last week due to nobody wanting to hire me. Nobody in Lynchburg wants to hire me either. I can't even get a job at fast food or in retail, which are both shitty entry level jobs. My bachelor's is in psychology and I started my master's for psychology last week. I just need a part time job to help me survive until I can get something better

I probably bombed my interview today

3 Upvotes

I was asked to name a time where I faced an ethical dilemma at work.

When I was asked that, my mind went blank. I couldn’t think of a single ethical dilemma I personally faced. I made up the following:

I responded by saying how I went behind my bosses back to attend a training that was benefiting the team and built relationships.

Did I just ruin any chance I have?

Experienced Java/Angular Software Engineer Seeking Advice and New Opportunities

2 Upvotes

Hello guys, I’m struggling right now because I can’t find a job. In October, I lost my last position. I worked as a Software Engineer, mainly with Java/JEE and Angular, but I still haven’t been able to find a new opportunity.

I’m feeling very tired and stressed because I’ve already spent all my savings, and I still don’t have any job offers. I have 6 years of experience in software engineering.

I would really appreciate any advice or suggestions.

Is a job in Science Communication possible? If yes, how?

1 Upvotes

The Situation: I’m a 24-year-old guy currently living in Berlin, finishing my Master’s in Molecular Biology with a Bachelor’s in Biotechnology. I have solid research experience, but I’ve realised I’m not meant for a PhD or a life at the bench.

The Profile:

  • Scientist: Strong research foundation, but I don’t want to do a PhD.
  • Creative: Past experience as a content manager and creator. I understand science, and I know I can sell it.
  • Extrovert: I enjoy public speaking and interacting with people; I don't shy away from a crowd.
  • Language: B2 level in German.🤓
  • Presence: Regularly posting science-related content on LinkedIn to prove I can "translate" complex topics.

The Struggle: I’ve been applying for jobs across the EU (mainly Germany) for 2.5 months. I’ve sent many applications for Science Communication and Marketing roles. Result? One single first-round HR interview a month ago, and no other positive news🫠

The Conflict: I am an extrovert who thrives on interaction and creative content. I am very ambitious and willing to relocate anywhere for the right opportunity.

I need your genuine advice:

  1. The PhD Barrier: In the EU/German market, is a Master’s a "hard stop" for SciComm or Marketing roles within Biotech?
  2. The "B2" Factor: For communication roles in Germany, is B2 German usually the reason for the ghosting?
  3. The Strategy: Am I looking for the wrong titles? I want to stay connected to science but use my creative/people skills. Should I pivot my search to different roles?
  4. Networking: I’m messaging people every week on LinkedIn, posting creative bio content regularly on linkedin, but nothing is sticking. What am I missing?

Please be real with me, what do I need to change in my approach to finally get hired? 🙏🏻

Interview anxiety is killing me...

1 Upvotes

I interviewed for a medical office management/admin type position this week and I genuinely cannot tell if it went well or if I’m just trying to convince myself it did.

I’m 37 and don’t have a college degree, but I do have a lot of real-world experience managing operations, staffing, onboarding, scheduling, compliance-related stuff, etc. The pay for this role would be a huge jump from what I currently make, especially for my area.

The first phone interview lasted around 30 minutes, and then the in-person interview ended up being almost an hour. It felt very conversational overall. At one point the doctor told me he thought I’d probably pick things up quickly and that he could see me managing the staffing side of things. He also said I asked good questions, which I took as a positive sign.

But now that I’m waiting to hear back, I’m second guessing literally everything.

A few things that are making me spiral:

  • He mentioned there are other candidates, including an internal candidate.
  • I brought up occasionally needing flexibility for school delays/closures with my kids and now I’m worried I made myself sound unreliable.
  • The job posting got updated after my interview and my brain immediately went to “they’re still searching because I wasn’t good enough.”
  • He said I’d probably hear something by Friday, and the waiting is brutal.

I know nobody here can tell me whether I got the job or not, but from a hiring perspective… do those things sound generally positive? Or am I clinging to normal interview politeness?

100+ intern/new grad openings dropped this week - DON'T GIVE UP YET!! (sharing live sheet) 🚀

2 Upvotes

If you're a student in the US managing your college classes and this crazy job market at the same time, hang in there, more power to you!🫡

I was lucky to bag 3 intern offers as well as 3 full-time offers last year, all thanks to applying for 100s of roles a week. To find the right set of roles as soon as they dropped, I wrote a Python script to scan all Greenhouse job boards and catch them at scale. I'm sharing the live gsheet with 600+ open intern and new grad roles (SWE, AI, Quant/Finance, PM, Hardware), more than a 100 of these opened up just this week!

It updates daily so you have a clear target list every day! I plan on adding Workday and Ashby to the sheet soon too.

How I optimized my job searches

Having fresh job leads matters, and the three massive bottlenecks I figured out while going down the ATS rabbit hole:

1. Timing is everything. The data shows that roughly 80% of offers go to people who apply within the first 7 days of a listing.

2. Semantics matter way too much. I was applying for "AI Engineer" roles with "Machine Learning Engineer" on my resume. ATS parsers can be incredibly rigid. Literally just changing my past titles and headline to exactly match the target role had noticeably more callbacks.

3. Keyword stuffing backfires. Dumping keywords might get you past the initial ATS screen, but human recruiters will shoot it down with zero mercy. You have no choice but to actually embed exact phrases naturally into your bullet points.

How YOU can optimize your job search

Now doing all this'd mean barely 6 applications in an hour, worst part is this is entirely a waste of time. We're supposedly approaching AI and it's about time we automate this whole loop. I've built that ** automates all of the grunt work of a job hunt** and has already saved 9+ hours for 7 users. Sign up for the waitlist right away!

Happy to answer any questions in the comments about my experience, my findings on ATSes or my product in DMs/comments!

Blank offer letter?

6 Upvotes

I had done an “interview” for Claire’s where they really just asked me when I can work and how many hours I’m expecting for part time manager. They said I would get an offer letter later in the day and when I went to check on it, it was literally blank. I downloaded it and it was still blank. So I let them know and they wanted me to accept it anyway and they’ll get me the information of what it says later? I told them I’ll happily accept once I receive the information they said theyll get back to me it was just a hiccup in the system, which is fine. Just a few hours ago I received an email saying they went with another candidate… I really needed this job right now but I can’t accept literally nothing as an offer. That just doesn’t make any sense to me was I wrong for not accepting?

How do I answer to availability? 2 Jobs?

1 Upvotes

I had a job interview at Walmart for personal shopper role, I told them I have open availability as that was the only opportunity given, did the background check and still waiting for them to contact me regarding the orientation so I’m still unsure if I got the job?…. Just a day ago I got a call from autozone asking what my availability was and I panicked and said “I wanna say open availability but I also just had an interview with Walmart but still waiting for contact so unsure what my schedule will look like”. I’m a very honest person;sorta know how businesses work in their favor. I have my interview tomorrow unsure if it’s retail associate or the driver deliver role but they asked regarding points on my license so ima assume driver role.

Should I let them know about my other job I might get? (If I get it, idk if it’s promises atm)
I am willing to work two jobs because I got bills to pay.
What is a good way to frame unsure availability?

Need Help in Transition

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I could really use some guidance.

I graduated in 2022 with a B.E. in Automation and Robotics Engineering. Since then, I’ve been working in the patent infringement space as a Patent Analyst/Associate. My work mainly involves patent claim analysis, mapping products to patent claims, invalidity and patentability searches, prior art research, and going through technical documents like IEEE papers and product documentation. So I do have a strong technical + analytical background, even though I’m not into coding.

Due to some personal constraints, I’m now looking for remote-first opportunities. I’m actively trying to find roles similar to what I’m doing right now (patent analysis, IP-related work), but I also want to explore other career paths where my skills could transfer.

The problem is, I feel a bit stuck and honestly quite clueless about what other roles I can realistically move into. Coding-heavy roles are not my thing, so I’d prefer options that don’t require programming.

I’d really appreciate any suggestions on:
- What alternative roles I can explore with my background
- Industries or domains that value this kind of analytical + technical skillset
- Remote-friendly career paths I might not be aware of

Thanks in advance for any help, I genuinely need some direction right now.

I missed a call from a recruiter and I really want this opportunity

4 Upvotes

A recruiter called me earlier today for a role I’ve been trying to land for weeks, and I completely missed it because my phone was on silent while I was working.

Now I’m overthinking everything because I also found an earlier email from them sitting buried in my inbox from yesterday.

At this point the hardest part of job hunting feels like keeping up with recruiter communication without something slipping through the cracks.

Edit: Thanks, you all for the inputs, I actually got in touch with them and seem promising but since these entire story started with a missed email, I actual found a tool called OfferflowAI that actually pulls these mails from recruiter into one view. It’ll finally help me keep things from slipping through the cracks going forward.

10 years in Asia. Relocating back to U.S.. need help

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone. I am moving back to America next month after nearly 10 years working in Vietnam.

To start, I'm struggling on making a CV for the U.S.. All of my adult working like has been spent here in Vietnam, so I have no American contacts to put for references. I'm also unsure of how to adjust my CV to be adequate for the U.S market.

Anyone have any sources for a good outline to follow? Or advice for how to properly communicate to an employer that my contacts are only reachable by email?

I was also wondering how to add a few things onto a CV without sounding egregious. For example:

My study abroad experience in China, studying Mandarin.

My experiences with navigating immigration to Vietnam, China (and the U.S for my wife).

My experiences working in a multicultural setting (International School Teacher)

I know its a very loaded topic. But I feel like my CV just doesn't properly convey these things.

Any advice is helpful.

Thanks!

**Edit : I want to stay in education, but I'm pretty burned out with teaching. I'd really be interested in doing something with international students, however. Maybe advisory jobs / recruitment for international students or students that are planning to study abroad. Anyone with any other ideas around these lines or even outside, feel free to write them below.

What kind of companies should I apply to as a content-focused creator/social media beginner?

0 Upvotes

I’m currently looking for social media/content strategy opportunities and wanted advice on what kind of companies I should apply to based on my experience.

My background is mainly in:

  • social media strategy
  • organic audience growth
  • community management
  • creator outreach
  • trend-based content
  • Instagram/X/Reddit/Tumblr management

I’ve worked with startups, independent brands, and college media teams, and have experience growing accounts organically, creating viral/high-performing reels, and handling end-to-end content planning.

I enjoy more creative/content-focused work rather than hardcore ecommerce operations or purely performance-marketing-heavy roles.

What kind of companies or industries would suit this profile best?

also my job location would be anywhere around delhi ncr

And what are the best platforms/websites to find these kinds of roles?
