EVERY COMPANY IS STRAIGHT UP REJECTING OR GHOSTING AFTER GIVING A TAKE-HOME ASSIGNMENT.

I am just tired of this at this point. I have been unemployed for over two months now. I have been constantly applying to every opportunity that I see within my limits. I've also reduced my salary expectations by significant margins.

I'd have understood if I was getting rejected after the initial screening / technical interview. But I am not even getting there.

    it took me 426 days to find my first job after graduation, and the job paid $8.125 an hour.

    @b2plane Don't worry, Belgium was 541 days without government. Don't be harsh on yourself if you took less than this to find a new job.

    It's almost as if HR get paid more for sitting their pants off than actually interviewing people.

    @vintprox I thought HR was there to screw over employees and protect the company

    You’re getting take-home assignments? I haven’t gotten anything back except a single rejection letter, and that was like five months after I applied.

    I get ghosted every single time.

    @ars1 fixed:

    @jestdotty Thanks for your advice, really appreciate it. Sadly, i don't reach up to that point where I am talking with a real human. I just had ~5 interviews in the last three months.

    Also did I mention I added a Kanban board plugin into Facebook's open source rich text editor Lexical, as an assignment, and then got ghosted? :)

    @clumsycoder Oh. The bigger the company, the more inventive ways to ghost AND profit off of someone.
