Hi, thanks for coming for the interview…so looking at your resume, it says your last job was at buzzfeed? Doing backend work or…?

Actually was on the journalism side, but since then I've transitioned over to coding…

….ahh I see, well….we normally require at least 3 years of industry experience.

Look, I'm not going to bullshit you. I know your time is valuable. I can code. I write sleek performant low-overhead rust code with higher order functions that will run on anything. Period. End of sentence.

"You claim your code is low overhead but it took you two sentences and four words to stop talking. Ex journalist, indeed."

Fuck every place that demands 3 years of experience. I can't even get into any electrician jobs in my town because every job ad demands I have 3-5 years of experience first

You just apply anyway, no need to claim you have the experience. It's a shit test.

If you can perform the fundamentals of your trade or profession and reliably show up every day you can land a job.

Go outside and try talking to people who do what you do.

I've hired people who had a thin resume but showed they would work hard and that they had the balls.

Where I live experience requirements are set so daddies can land their kids a job in the same industry they work in thereby keeping any competition out. Clown world boils down to rich fat fucks trying to hand down their privileges to their children without anyone noticing.
