#jobseeking — Public Fediverse posts

Gypsy on the move?

Spring. Time of change, a good time and good changes. Well I HAVE to believe that right now. Last Sunday I was informed that GOA is going on the market and I must find alternative arrangements, for work and to stay. I know EXACTLY what I want to do with the last few years of my life, and to that end I am attempting to make a decent CV. I want to get out of been so much cyberspace firstly. Then I NEED to grow stuff and make gardens like at Zwavelpoort. I also would like to build real things with wood, not make photos of things, make some. I did put some feelers out and will start this week looking at these “organic” farms. Hope to find one in the Bush here, where I belong. Also an extra pair of …. trained eyes about the place will help with security. Well, wish me luck….

Will get my photos of all the gardens I have made over the years, from Maputo to Cape Town!!!

🎯🤔 "Targeted Bets" suggests that job seekers should stop sending their resumes to every company on the planet 🌍 and instead focus on a handful of jobs no one else wants. Because nothing says "career success" like betting on the jobs everyone else is running away from! 😂

I am 54 years old and have worked for some shit employers in my time. To give you some context to this statement: when my father passed away, I called in to inform them that I would be unable to honour my shift the next day. The colleague on the other end of the phone complained that I had not given them much notice. Being a huge fan of the works of ‘Zucker, Abrahams and Zucker’ I replied, “I would have called earlier, but my dad wasn’t dead then!” I was then criticised about my attitude by this dickhead, but to be fair, my line manager did call me back within five minutes to offer his condolences and ask how much time off I needed. Yesterday marks a first for me: at 22:25 on December 9th, I came a gnat’s chuff away from looking my line manager in the eye and screaming into his face that he could poke his job where the mice wouldn’t be able to get at it! It looks like 2026 will be the first year where the phrase ‘new year, new me’ could actually apply.

Wrote something on our gemlog about how we use Obsidian to keep track of job applications we write. Even with the context, you can use it as a way to learn how to use Bases through an example

J'ai écrit un article sur notre gemlog sur comment on utilise Obsidian Bases pour garder une trace des candidatures qu'on envoie (vous pouvez vous en servir comme d'un guide par l'exemple de Bases)

I'd have to be a lot closer to dead--or maybe my child would have to be in danger of starvation--for me to consider this.

Fun fact: Back in about 2008 or so, when DHS wasn't widely known to be evil (I mean, some of us had strong suspicions), I was part of a multi-university coalition awarded a multimillion-dollar, multi-year grant to study border dynamics. My piece was a 3-year study of immigration, crime, social integration, and related variables.

A week after we were awarded the grant, it was rescinded. Someone in DC knew someone who leaned on the Homeland Security grants people and made them yank our grant and give it to a coalition headed by Texas A&M (who had not won the grant, initially). Even if I didn't know what I know now about DHS/ICE/CBP, that experience would make me avoid working with them.

"The problem is less that candidates are using A.I. — a skill many employers say they want — than it is that they’re being sloppy. Alexa Marciano, the managing director of Syndicatebleu, a recruiting agency, said job seekers were reacting to recruiters’ use of automated screening. “It’s really frustrating for the candidates because they spend all this time creating very catered cover letters, very catered résumés,” she said.
Jeremy Schifeling, a career coach who regularly conducts technology-focused job-search training at universities, said he could see this back-and-forth going on for a while. “As students get more desperate, they say, ‘Well, I have no choice but to up the ante with these paid tools to automate everything.’ And I’m sure the recruiters are going to raise the bar again.”
He argues the endgame will be authenticity from both sides. But, he said, “I do think that a lot of people are going to waste a lot of time, a lot of processing power, a lot of money until we reach that realization.”"

Job hunts are an AI minefield. Applicants falsify resumes with AI, recruiters use AI interviewers. This tech race is making it harder for genuine candidates to stand out. #AIHiring #JobSeeking #Recruitment

Applause, please, for the companies that have managed to make jobhunting even worse, thanks to AI. @404mediaco’s Samantha Cole reports on the experiences of a woman named Ken, who was interviewed by an AI avatar that said “vertical bar pilates” 14 times in a row. She related her experiences on TikTok and received more than 3,000 comments, many sharing similar stories. “A company tried to send me to an AI interview for an HR position… Why would I want to work HUMAN resources for a company that won’t even dignify me with human interaction???” one person wrote.

Foreign jobseekers ditch the UK market — with one surprising exception.

Foreign interest in the UK labour market declined in the first three months of 2025.

However, interest from US job seekers rose significantly during this period, coinciding with the beginning of Donald Trump's second presidency.

Although the recruitment practice is different from country to country, some tips the speakers shared are applicable for any early-career librarians.

I've just published STANDARD RESUME FORMAT, a set of guidelines based on over a decade of experience helping people rewrite their resumes and get more interviews.

https://isaaclyman.com/blog/posts/standard-resume/#page-layout

P.S. If you've applied to 100+ jobs this year and haven't gotten any interviews, let's chat. It's probably your resume, and we can probably fix it up in an hour or so. No charge.

Not sure how I feel about this... but it popped up in my climate change RSS feed and there might be someone here who could do some good with this position? Yale is looking for a Data Scientist, focused on machine learning, "to lead the design, development, and implementation of machine learning models and operations as part of an academic organization devoted to supporting academics and practitioners in climate change research and communication."

I'm #JobSeeking!

If you do interesting things in the #DistributedSystems space that aren't predicated on market-based solutionism, I would love to come write #Rust & #JavaScript apps or work on #SystemsArchitecture and infrastructure with you. I also do pretty decent #CareWork and #CommunityManagement in teams which aspire to be human-centered.

I'm especially interested in roles within organizations lead by #queer and #FirstNations peoples and #anarchist groups doing #MutualAid efforts.

Hey! Did you know I once put #Doom and #gameboy (playable!) on credit card machines? Or ported Wordle to #PalmOS ? I've been plumbing all sorts of #tech into all sorts of other tech professionally for almost a decade now (unprofesionally for 16 years!) with an intimate knowledge of the inner workings of computers and low-level embedded code. I can also do killer hand-crafted #webdesign without relying on platforms or frameworks! And I can draw you in #pixelart for a modest price!

I'm currently 99% unemployable due to being legally in Brazil and physically in the UK. I've been without a stable income for 2 years now and I desperately need something my way. If you know of any commission or contract work that won't bug me with where I am geographically, please let me know!
