    re: applying for jobs and stuff we're discussing now, can you please fucking apply even if you don't hit 100% on the job requirements?

    Seen so many people hired for top jobs even tho' they clearly didn't even hit 50% on the requirements

    In a way this is infuriating, mostly for seniors, as they think "hmm this job asks too much even for me, won't apply" then seeing that job filed by a kid with 3-5 years experience

    so yeah, if you like the company but think you can't be 100% on the job reqs, apply apply, chances are you'll get the job anyway!

    • another "hack" that works: wherever you put your profile pic of yourself, use a yellow/orange background, makes you seem more friendly & approachablegrafician
    • this. Job descriptions are often not written by the person needing to employ, rather HR or managers, and so can be very off putting and not accurate.shapesalad
    • yellow/orange? Not a nice confident and reliable corporate blue?shapesalad
