Do you keep track of all your applications, or are you submitting too many to count? Any idea what your interview "hit rate" is? I used to track more, but it's impossible to check your status on so many platforms, it doesn't always seem worth it.

This job application process is becoming tiring. It takes approximately 30-40mins to tailor(including editing and formatting) CV and cover letter to each job post. After approximately 4 applications, mental fatigue sets in. I am considering using some form of Agentic AI to scan LinkedIn and apply for matching jobs. A scenario where all I will do in the end is just verify and click submit. Has anyone come across anything like this?

How do you handle rejection after going through four rounds of interviews? The team seemed very positive and gave me the impression they were highly interested in moving forward with me.

Hey folks -- what’s a subtle interview red flag people should pay more attention to that most candidates ignore at first? I’ll start: - The interviewer constantly interrupts or seems distracted the whole time. - Nobody can clearly explain what the role actually involves day to day. - They dodge questions about turnover, onboarding, or why the role is open. - The interview feels weirdly adversarial for no reason. Anything else that comes to mind?

I recently found out that a colleague with less experience than me is making noticeably more, and I cannot stop thinking about it before interviews now. It changed the way I look at compensation conversations completely. I used to just feel grateful to get an offer, now I feel like I probably undervalued myself for years. Has anyone else had that moment? Did it change how aggressively you negotiate or interview?
