Team and Family environment

What’s the longest interview you’ve had?

If you would have told me this was possible I wouldn’t have believed it. I just left an interview that started before 1pm and ended after 3. I met with the manager, team lead, and 2 “would be” peers. By all signs, I think it went well. I’ll let you know soon if I get the job.

Having had an obsession with programming related tasks since I was a small boy, I got many years of programming experience and ended up consulting for tech companies as soon as I was 16. I now work for a large corporation at 23 years old where I am now unhappy and no longer feeling secure with my career. Everything is being outsourced to India and other foreign countries to save money, and our department’s tasks and projects that I love and take pride working on are depleting rapidly. I have been on the job hunt for 6 months now, but I cannot find a position. My resume is either sent to a black hole with thousands of other considered applicants, or when I do hear back- it’s a great interview— until I explain my job experience at an enterprise level. I have applied for HUNDREDS of jobs in August alone. I am being told left and right I have “too much experience for the position, and they’re looking for someone to stay for the long run”. I explain that I am in this for a career, not just a job and genuinely enjoy what I do, and the employers that I interview with feel I would end up bored.

I did try to apply higher up in more “advanced” IT and developer roles that I may or may not qualify for, but then again- I get more of a black hole here than anything.

I’m only 23 years old, on my own, and I am scared to death. I’ve been lucky to get work with so much experience and a great portfolio (no degree, but many applicable certifications), but now nobody wants to hire me at all. When our department is completely moved out of country, I don’t know what I’m left with... Am I on the right website to explore options here?

I am really excited. It’s like out of no where I’ve gotten some serious activity. In the last week I’ve been scheduled for 2 interviews as well as submitted to several different opportunities.

I’ve been on the market for over a month and only now have I seen action.

Is this a big recruitment time of year?

I did recently delete and re-upload my resume on a few sites. Maybe that sparked new interest.

Anyway, send prayers and wish me luck. I hope to have a new IT job real soon.

If you're looking to have a nice side business this would be the way to go if you're in a major city if you're someplace where it's like out in the country somewhere you're not going to really do well but if you do live in the city and you want to have some extra work for yourself as a side business this is a great company to do business with and work for
