Job hunting has gotten to an absolutely insane point. There are AI filters, ATS systems, and recruiters who have to sift through hundreds, sometimes thousands, of applications just to find a match. It feels less about showcasing your skills and more about beating an algorithm. The entire process is exhausting before it even begins. I’m thankful to be employed right now, but I can’t help but dread the thought of ever having to apply again. It’s become a game of who knows how to outsmart the system, rather than who’s the best fit for the job. It’s truly overwhelming.
