Hi Lucifargundam,
Thank you for sending us your resume for our Senior Systems Engineer II position. Unfortunately, we are looking for someone with more experience than your resume indicates.
Perhaps we can work together in the future.
Sincerely,
L S
@lucifargundam Man, I've seen all these rejection posts and now I want to see your resume!

Not sure what gives - I've worked many parts of IT (including tech support) for many years and everyone has heard of my current employer whom I've worked with for a handful of years.
The main complaint I've gotten from companies is that I don't have my B.S. in computer science. I have the exp for the most part and have passed what coding interviews I've taken in the past.
Something's gotta give at some point. It usually takes me 1-2 years of active searching to land a new job.

I've never experienced the kind of favorable market as other people have depicted in social media and public circles and news
life has always been rough for me
@lucifargundam I'm self-taught as well. I'm not in the job market at the moment but I'm wondering if market conditions are causing hiring departments to become what they think is "more picky"?
