Man, the job market for software engineers is rough right now. I'm back on the hunt for a new gig. Second time in just a couple of years. It’s a grind. The ghosting, the rejections… it never gets easier.
But earlier this week, I got a little lucky and found some inspiration. I saw a job posting that mentioned they were open to video applications. That got me thinking: why not use on of my own project to make interactive video applications? Figured it’d be a cool way to stand out, connect with the company, and show off what I can do in a more creative way.
So, I gave it a shot and sent out a few of these interactive video applications. And so far, the response rate has been shockingly high. Fingers crossed it keeps going like this.
If anyone else out there is struggling with the job search and wants help setting something like this up, just hit me up. Hang in there, everyone—we’ll get through this.
