Ask HN: How can a unhireable person get a job? 520 by snakedoctor | 808 comments on Hacker News. I've been trying to get a job for over a year now. I've interviewed at Google, Facebook, Dell, NSA, CIA, DoE (E=Energy), Airbnb, Palantir. Too many to list. I've applied to companies from the whoishiring thread every monthly. workatastartup etc. Always ending with ghosting, or a impasive rejection letter. I tried improving my interview skills. Reading Meyers, Knuth etc. books. Reading advice on Reddit etc. But I still always get rejected. I worked at EA (QA on Apex Legends), and IBM (dev) at 18. Quit due to lowpay/no insurance. Got referrals etc. dropped out my freshmen year at a top 40 college. Was on the cyber security team etc. College was too expensive so I had to dropout. Got a low level customer support role at Amazon. But I only made $15 with no health insurance. Found some flaws within the anti-fraud system at Amazon, and wrote a detailed e-mail to the VP in charge of...

Ask HN: What tech job would let me get away with the least real work possible? 734 by lmueongoqx | 403 comments on Hacker News. Hey HN, I'll probably get a lot of flak for this. Sorry. I'm an average developer looking for ways to work as little as humanely possible. The pandemic made me realize that I do not care about working anymore. The software I build is useless. Time flies real fast and I have to focus on my passions (which are not monetizable). Unfortunately, I require shelter, calories and hobby materials. Thus the need for some kind of job. Which leads me to ask my fellow tech workers, what kind of job (if any) do you think would fit the following requirements : - No / very little involvement in the product itself (I do not care.) - Fully remote (You can't do much when stuck in the office. Ideally being done in 2 hours in the morning then chilling would be perfect.) - Low expectactions / vague job description. - Salary can be on the lower side. - No career advan...
