      education does not guarantee anything. If she has an unsuitable personality (no offense), then she won’t get a job.

      As far as I can tell, it is quite rare to send hundreds of serious applications and not land a job. I know, you read all the time about it, but no one in my vicinity ever experienced this.

        It’s real easy to judge the quality of someone else’s glass of water if you don’t have to drink it.

        You are out of touch. Go try to land a position and report back to us how your winning personality and firm handshake got you the job.

          And yet you were not able to explain what the real problem is. Go ahead and please tell me. As I and all my social contacts do not have that issue, I can only end up guessing.

          But what I know is the view of HR. Seeing that 95% of all applications land in garbage, because it is so utterly obvious this person did not even remotely read the job description. Having 2 Master degrees does not change this.

            Maybe HR should try reading the job description too, then maybe they’d realize it’s impossible to have 35 years experience with dotnet core.

            If the company isn’t going to take honesty in writing the requirements seriously, why would the applicants bother when applying?
