I'm at 1500 right now since starting search last november

Keep your head up

Jesus Christ 😭😭

made 5 rounds of interviews at top companies and they just f***ing ghosted like I get it for not even making it past resume but after 5 rounds like wtf dude just give me decency to reject me in an email f*** corporate america i'm so f***ing done with this bullshit

What field are you in

Business strategy/operations/data a***ytics in entertainment industry but also applying to other industries but working at any of the studios main goal

Ah ok we’re pretty similar except i work in investment banking

are you sure your resume isn't getting auto-rejected because of the format

I had an internship/co op at the one of the biggest studios too was about to turn into full time and then pandemic f***ed me full time position was cancelled all internships frozen, honestly don't even know what to do since then, have just been chilling doing hella apps. Thought having internship at biggest studio would have helped

have you reached out to alumni

ignore him hes a troll

COVID really f***ed up the job market in such a catastrophic way and all the government could do was send out some one time stimmy checks lol.

I've never struggled like this before when searching for jobs I'm hoping its pandemic f***ing the market but s*** is starting to get too much

Im just trying to get a Masters at this point, and idk if it will help for the jobs. All they want is experience and i got none, even wrote some fake bs with real references. if im out of luck and not accepted/or past deadline im gonna do CFA Level 1 this december

dog, my pops is dealing with the same thing. masters degree applying to jobs that are literally in his field that's he had before and getting to the interview stage before getting ghosted. It's definitely pandemic related, otherwise he woulda been landed something by now.

Which once again, leaves me in utter awe how horrifically neglectful this government has been and currently is being.

nah I’m just being a little overly ambitious i suppose since I’m in a good entry level position rn. I’ve had a few interviews for senior roles but it’s been a mix of not enough experience and not enough $$$

Also intending on going to grad school but all the programs I want to get into want you to have like 3-5 years of solid work expereince at lit companies

It be like that sometimes man

You got a CFA?

Thinking to do lvl 1 this december, my bro got one and he moving up in commercial real estate so easily

I turned down a really good full time job offer too before graduating dec 2019 for internship at movie studio could have never for-seen a pandemic happening

I definitely prefer some applied mathematic though

Hitting up a Quant fund is the goal

nah maybe down the road, right now I’m in operations

Pics of resume

Lie on your resume like I did bro

Do you mind sharing how much you make, currently?
