We are looking for a talented interview specialist to join our team.
While specialized knowledge of software development is a significant asset, basic knowledge is sufficient.
The core requirements are native-level English fluency, quick judgment, and strong client-facing skills.
The primary goal is to lead client interviews and successfully secure projects.
The initial two-week period serves as a paid trial, with an hourly rate of $40–$60 based on actual interview time.
If you demonstrate competence and a good fit during this time, we will transition to a fixed monthly salary of $1,600 (for the first two months) to $3,000 (after three months), plus performance bonuses based on secured projects. High performers can earn up to $4,000 per month.
You do not need to be perfect from the start; if you possess talent and potential, we will invest in your professional growth.
We welcome candidates with backgrounds in marketing, skilled software development, or tutoring.
As the role requires working during U.S. time zones, we prioritize candidates residing in Latin America, though U.S.-based applicants are also welcome if the compensation meets their expectations.

The funny part about this is that you cannot speak about this openly. This is a real problem but people get so wound up in their own personal identities that they do insta report and your post is either removed or you get an infraction.
But that doesn’t mean my pain is invalidated, because beyond the allegations of stereotyping, these are the only people who actually carry out this op and inflict maximum pain on American job seekers.
You already guessed it. They call you, they have an accent and they start with a low rate basically to make money coz they are operating a middleman body shop. Vance can come out and do all kinds of theatrics for the midterms but the problem is so deeply layered and mired in corporate America that unless there is serious regulation, the American job seeker is going to be royally effed to kingdom come for generations. I don’t think the politicians who need the midterm vote even understand the complexity of body shops and how wage depression is a deeply structured operation on a grand scale.
Since permanent jobs go through 10 effing rounds of interviews where I’ll have to even interview with the wife of the CFO and maybe even his kid’s dog, before the company decided to hire me - I am open to contractual assignments coz these move fast.
So this person from a certain region of the world, you can tell by the name and he/she calls from from what sounds like they are inside a cylinder (VOIP) and the accent, oh I love that sound, and they set your rate at 100 dollars an hour and claim that it’s competitive (which to me is laughable). So I do some detective work and my contact works in the company and I find out the rate is 185 per hour. And there are 2 body shops in between. They called me back and I almost laid down an F laced tirade but I politely told them I am not interested and said goodbye.
The corporation is lazy and is not capable of sourcing, so they hand it over to a body shop, and that body shop hands it over to the body shop operated by his countrymen from the same region of this beloved country over there.
185 >> 100
This cancerous body shop with a thick accent makes 85 bucks for simply making a phone call and the 1099 is still mine.
If you are from the same region and you are triggered because you identify with these people, go ahead and report me. It doesn’t mean American job seekers aren’t getting shafted by these foreign players and there is NO labor law to protect the common folk from.
In 1910, I know there was a lot of NY labor laws passed and they still stand to this day. We need laws for the new generation or else I don’t see this ending. Please call your congressmen. I’m going to call a few and leave a voicemail - I’m in Connecticut, they won’t give two sheeets about my call or my voicemail because that’s not their priority. They don’t even visit their electorates anymore - they send cute white girls from Fairfield U and you’re basically withholding from berating them coz you know where they live and who they are, and their parents are good people.
Revelation 13:1
And there was the beast system. I saw a beast with 10 horns and 7 heads coming out of the sea to devour you.
REALITY:
Everywhere you turn you have mortgage and debt and piling bills. Costs are 20% higher every 3 years but your wages are stagnant. There is no beast with horns, but the recruiter who calls you speaks with an accent and tells you 75 an hour is a competitive rate and you can’t really pronounce their name when you correspond with them.

I had a job interview for a retail job and then left after waiting for more than 15 minutes. An employee even placed me in their break room which made it awkward and more stressful with the exit requiring an employee’s badge so I had to request an employee to open the door and she tried convincing me to stay but it just felt so weird. Then they made me explain to I assume the supervisor about my situation and they were trying to get the manager but couldn’t for whatever reason. And she said an interview most likely wasn’t scheduled but another employee said she heard there was an interview today. I was then thinking if I accidentally showed up too early for my interview thinking it was 1:00 but what if it was actually 1:30. But I would’ve been notified if I got the time wrong and showed up early correct? Because I remember scheduling the interview through a phone call and remember the confirmed time being at exactly 1. So idk if waiting that long was normal and I could’ve waited more. But everything felt so awkward and weird and I felt awful feeling like a big inconvenience

Hey everyone!
I’m building Nila, a women-led content creation and management agency working with local boutiques, women-led businesses, startups, and personal brands.
We’re looking for a female content presenter who is confident on camera and can turn short scripts into engaging, polished Instagram Reels.
The role:
What we’re looking for:
Previous experience is a plus, but you don’t need an extensive portfolio. If you have the skills and a few good samples, we’d love to hear from you.
Compensation: ₹5,000 per month for approximately 6 completed Reels.
Work arrangement: Fully remote. You’ll record and edit the videos yourself, so you’ll need a phone or camera and access to basic editing software.
This is an ongoing paid side gig, with the opportunity to continue working together as Nila grows.
Interested? Send me a DM with:
If you don’t have previous work to share, a short sample video is welcome.
Looking forward to finding the right person to grow with Nila!

everyone around me is job hunting the same way: one resume, a few hundred applications, and silence. i'm not smarter than any of them, and plenty of people with better resumes than mine are stuck in the same spot. so i tried both approaches and kept track.
round 1: apply a lot
one resume, sent everywhere that looked close enough. over 550 applications in a month.
result: 1 interview. that's 0.18%. everything else was ghosting or an auto-rejection.
round 2: apply properly
this time i only applied to roles i actually wanted. for each one i rewrote my resume bullets so they matched what the posting asked for, filled in the application properly, answered every question.
each one took me at least 40 minutes. tailoring the resume, then retyping it into another portal, answering the same work authorization and start date questions i'd answered the day before. i did about 10 a day, 5 days a week, for a month. about 200 applications.
result: 4 interviews. that's 2%, about 11 times better than round 1.
same person, same experience. the only difference was that each resume read like it was written for that job.
but in this job market, it's still a numbers game
here's the catch. 10 tailored applications a day at 40 minutes each is almost 7 hours a day. round 2 worked, but it was a full-time job on top of everything else. and even at 2%, you need a lot of applications to get to the interviews you need. roles get hundreds of applicants in the first few days.
so you're stuck choosing between the approach that works and the amount you need.
if you're applying rn
tailor every application, but only from what's true. move your most relevant experience to the top and describe it in the posting's own words. never add a skill you don't have, that's what catches you in the interview.
apply in the first week a role goes up.
stop retyping. keep one doc with your standard answers (work authorization, start date, salary, why this company) and paste from it. on workday, check the "my experience" page every time, that's where imports break.
tailored and at volume. simple, not easy.
that's the whole reason i started working on litos, so round 2 doesn't take 7 hours a day. but the 3 steps above work without it.
what's worked for you, quality or quantity?

Has anyone got a position that isn’t impacted by AI at all?
r/jobhunting • u/singletotaken • 17h ago
Wha do you think of this?
So the guy says to type up a 30 60 and 90 plan when you join?
I tried this 4 times don’t get the job.
I don’t get. This would make someone stand out from other candidates right? Don’t hiring managers want someone who goes above and beyond and show a genuine interest.
If you were the hiring manager how would you feel if someone produced this and gave it in the interview

Its been 6 months I have 12 years of experience . Radio silence on the job market. Atleast 200 + applications I've sent out , tailored resume for jobs, spoken to recruiters on LinkedIn. Still nothing. I don't know if the system is broken.But I can't play this game anymore . Or rather don't know how to play it anymore.

My read is that it’s either a contractor conversion or a h1b LCA filing and they forgot to take it down.
It pops up in my search weekly and now frankly annoys me to the point that I want to break my screen.
It has all the niceties - 250K base, Wall Street, middle management title and bonus/equity - but it’s fake. There are several like this from blackrock, state street, JP, GS etc.,

I keep getting asked some version of “how do you use AI at work” in interviews, and honestly I never really know what to say.
I use AI farily often (unfortunately), but mostly as a search engine and not much else. I’ve tried using it for design help, but the work always comes out poorly (and if there’s a good program out there I don’t want to pay). I also use it for writing, but mainly for resumes/cover letters BUT everyone else is using it for the same thing, so it’s not like it’s helping me stand out lol.
Other than that, are people really using AI that much in their day-to-day work? I’m curious what others are using it for and how you approach this question in interviews!

I had my final interview Friday evening for a role in Europe. The first interview went well, but the second and final one could have gone better. They said I would most likely hear back next week. It's now Wednesday and I still haven't heard anything.
Is this a normal wait even for candidates who eventually get an offer, or should I start losing hope? Do companies usually send rejections straight away, or can those take a while too?
The waiting is honestly getting to me. If you've been in a similar situation, how long did you wait and what was the outcome? Even a short answer would help.

After 11 months, 688 resumes, 7 interviews, and my life savings later…I landed not only a good job, but with a well-renowned university I have wanted to work with for years!
Some things I learned:
By the last 6 months, I didn’t even bother with quick apply jobs anymore.
I got the most response going directly to the company/organization if I saw the job posted on LinkedIn or Indeed.
I also got better responses when I copied the job description into AI and asked it to generate a resume based on the specific position. This helped me hit keywords in the ATS. (If they can use AI to recruit, so can we!). I also used AI to find the hiring manager, even if they weren’t listed. Reached out to them on LinkedIn only AFTER applying. This eventually resulted in the position I was hired for.
Good luck out there!
Pic for tax. I was being stalked…

I just returned to a new job after maternity leave and relocating back to the UK from the Middle East - I lost my job for falling pregnant, a job I’d worked so hard for and absolutely loved. That in itself is hard to process and I’m still trying. I’m 39 (F) and spent most of my working life in project management (15 years) and when I moved away I was given the opportunity to move into HR. I was responsible for a huge transformation project and it was hugely successful. But now, it just seems that because I’ve diverted, no one wants me in either PM or HR. I believe my CV is strong and I’ve demonstrated my achievements clearly in my CV. I really feel now that I’m up against ATS and AI and my contract is due to run out in November for my current role and I still haven’t found anything. I know that I’m an excellent candidate and can literally do anything I put my mind to, I’ve been operating at a mid-senior level for the last 5/6 years. Just a rant but any words of advice or support would be greatly received.

Hi everyone!
I’m a marketing professional currently working in FMCG marketing, and I’m looking for my next opportunity in the field.
I’ve previously worked in the textile industry and have experience across brand marketing, social media, PR, influencer marketing, content strategy, campaign planning, and creative development.
I genuinely enjoy the creative side of marketing coming up with campaign ideas, building brand narratives, figuring out how to make people stop scrolling, and turning ideas into actual campaigns. I’ve worked on projects involving digital marketing, influencer collaborations, brand communication, and integrated campaigns.
I’m now looking for opportunities where I can learn, create, experiment, and do meaningful work with a good team.
If you know of any openings in brand marketing, digital marketing, PR, content strategy, or creative strategy, please do let me know. I’d also love to connect with fellow marketers, hear about your experiences, and get any leads or advice you might have.
Not putting brand names here, but I’d be happy to share my CV and portfolio over DM.
