1/ Hey Twitter, have you applied to 157 jobs this year and gotten a handful of interviews and still not a single offer?

[continue the thread]

 2/ It’s been a rough year for many of us and being unemployed is a huge added stressor to that.

Here are a few of the main issues I’ve seen with students in my program.
3/ ISSUE #1

You’re limiting yourself to one single strategy - applying on job boards.

Job boards have a really low success rate. Unless your resume and skill set is really outstanding, you’re competing against HUNDREDS of other applicants and your chances are low.
4/ ISSUE #2

You’re not being intentional.

It may seem like the right approach to browse and apply for whatever kind of fits.

But you’re fitting a square peg in a round hole.

So the opposite. Sit down and design your next role. Wants, work, companies and deal breakers.
5/ ISSUE #3

You’re up in your own head.

You’ve written and rewritten your resume a hundred times. You FEEL EXHAUSTED and are using a lot of energy, but aren’t actually applying to very many jobs.

Focus on outreach and connections. Talk to everyone you know!
6/ ISSUE #4

You’re getting interviews but not landing them.

This takes practice. Practice with a friend or a career coach.

It’s likely that you’re coming across unfocused, or you haven’t mapped out specific quantifiable accomplishments for them to latch on to.
7/ ISSUE #5

You’re not following up!

The “thank you” email is not just a formality. It is a critical step in the process.

In it you can:

1- Remind them about the things they loved about you.

2- Address any of their concerns or mistakes you made

3- Give some extra details
8/ Over the course of the 2020, I’ve been able to help people like Blake.

- spent 9 months applying
- applied to between 160-220 jobs

He just got a great job that hit his target salary right from the start.

With some negotiation coaching we landed him $5K more. 🔥
9/ Then we’ve got people like Annie. Annie was a MACHINE.

- spent 12 months job searching
- applied to 160 jobs
- got LOTS of interviews

But couldn’t land a job.

3 weeks into my program she landed a job offer $20K higher than her last job.
10/ Then we have people like Andrew who spent a lot of money on other career programs who have them very generic advice that didn’t help much with his specific circumstance.

They didn’t give him:

- support and accountability
- help and feedback when an opportunity came up
11/ Then we’ve got Jorge

- applied for 160 jobs
- spent 12 months job seeking

3 weeks into the program, using the email outreach techniques I taught him, he landed an incredible job offer.

Then he was afraid to negotiate. When we did, he got $5K higher salary.
12/ Then we’ve got Marsha

Marsha was great, she just needed to quantify what she has done and what she expects to accomplish at this new company.

She landed a great offer, then with some salary negotiation coaching, we landed her a second offer $10K HIGHER! 🔥🔥🔥
13/ So a bit more about the program I offer:

- 6 weeks
- Group coaching
- Live calls every Saturday
- 10:30am - 12:00noon
- 1-on-1 calls with me for any major event (interview, salary negotiation etc)
- Private slack accountability group
- A total overhaul on your job search
14/ In just the first week, you’ll start building out an insanely-organized job search pipeline the likes of which you’ve never seen before.

Here you’ll see precisely who is reading your emails and when to help you make data-driven decisions on what to focus your efforts on.
15/ If that sounds like your jam the next program starts on Saturday, January 9th so don’t wait!

You can apply at

16/ Or if this thread sounds good enough for you, you can skip the site and apply right here:

17/ If you’re wondering about the value of the course, consider what you’ll pay with other coaches:

Typical Career Coaches
$150 -250/hour

Online Career Course
$200-400

Resume Rewrite Session
$200
18/ What you’ll get:

- 9 Hours of Live Group Classes
$500+ value

- Average 3-5 hrs of 1-on-1 sessions per student
$600- $1000+ value

🎁BONUS
- Sign up by Jan 1 and get a free 1-on-1 resume rewrite ($200 value)

Value: $1300-1700
Price: $749 🤯
19/ And the results speak for themselves.

Don’t wait! There are only 5 spots left in the program! Let’s chat today!

@lhochstein "It's complicated"

Having been in Amazon, Google, MS, the Google process is (was!) a clear outlier, which was totally culturally aligned with how everything else in the company worked.

1) Designed to fail closed
2) Detail over big picture
3) Written over relationship

1) "Fail closed" -- jargon for "optimised to say no by default".

Many processes in Google were like this, probably the largest other one being the hiring process. (Many Googlers hated the hiring process since they felt it said no to people who would 100% have been great hires...

...sometimes being burned to the extent of refusing to do any more interviewing.)

But the promotion process is (was) the same way - if the committee couldn't convince itself the case was watertight, it wouldn't promote.

This obviously led to a situation where a lot of cases were refused and meant a lot of heartache and unnecessary departures, but also a situation where by god if you'd MADE that bar, it was close to undeniable.

There was a very strong shared sense of what each level meant.

Some more so than others: I think L5/Senior is probably the one most folks have the largest degree of precision on, and above that it's harder to tell. But one benefit was that title/grade inflation was very strongly counteracted by "the system".

Having a Ph.D. doesn’t make a person special, but it’s a gruelling years-long initiation many of us were never expected to survive and did so in spite of shitty, incurious white gatekeepers who kissed other white gatekeeper ass to get access that we kicked doors down to achieve.

My Ph.D. wasn’t about just me—it was about my family’s and mentors’ love and support. Every degree, promotion, accolade, etc., is theirs too. They’re proud; so am I. Social capital isn’t the same thing as worth, but we’ll take it for what it is and never mistake what it means.

We belong at all levels, at all the tables, with all the degrees and the honourifics. And we’ll keep earning them, and making space for more of our own. It isn’t the only work that matters, and the academy is brutal and corrosive, but so is every other structure and institution.

Degrees and titles aren’t who we are; we’re helped with perspective by our kin, our friends, and our communities. BIPOC folks questioning value of or complicities in pursuing a Ph.D.—that’s an important, complex, and nuanced discussion. But others had best tread carefully.

If patronizing bigots whinge that we “wrong” kind of people are sullying the elitist degrees, titles, and honours that were intended solely for their pale, male, and stale country club cliques, kindly address complaints to me, Dr. Justice, and my Ph.D. colleagues, at Screw U.

A story of a brave woman who let her "breast" cut to protect the life of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose!

Neera Arya was born on March 5 1902 in Khekra Nagar, Uttar Pradesh in a distinguished & eminent businessman Seth Chhajumal's family. Since her childhood,


2/21
She was a true nationalist & always had a vision of becoming a part of the freedom fighter movement. She was also reportedly accused as an undercover by the British Govt.

That was the time when her father's business was flourishing in Calcutta, though his business was..

3/21
spread across the country but Calcutta was the center of his business and that was one of the reasons why her education was done in Calcutta. During that period of time, she had learned quite a few languages along with Bengali, Hindi, English.

4/21
Her father got her married to a CID Inspector "Shrikant Jairanjan Das" in British India but they were two different individuals, Neera Arya was a true nationalist but her husband was a true British servant. She was highly motivated & she had an urge of getting us freedom..

5/21
so she ended up joining the Jhansi Regiment in Azad Hind Fauz after the marriage. It was the regiment that the British always accused them of spying on British Govt.

It was the time when Neera's husband Jairanjan Das was given the responsibility to spy on Netaji Subhash..

Pretending that voting for Trump or denying climate change or suggesting the solution to every problem is more guns is a legitimate point of view, worthy of respect is not "how America works." It is how it dies.

People in a free society are entitled to any point of view no matter how obviously wrong or outlandish or destructive provided they do not impose their views on others.

But suggesting that something ignorant or divorced from reality warrants the same kind of treatment in public debate as something based in fact or at least credible is absurd and when done on behalf of a society in public media or academic settings it is self-destructive.

We would not grant media coverage or much bandwidth at all to a group that argued that unicorns exist or that there was a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Yet views like denying climate change or basing policy decisions on sweeping, obvious lies, are just as unsound.

Somewhere, somehow, judgments must be made. Some behaviors are wrong and must be condemned. Someone must challenge lies and demand facts. Coddling people who embrace idiocies does not help them no matter how loudly they demand to be coddled.

#DoYouKnow -The place where
Lalitha Sahasranamam -1000 names of Devi originated.

It is in Lalithambigai temple -Thirumeeyachur,Near Mayiladuthurai,TN

There is a Legend #story & it is related to this beautiful #sculpture of Kshetrapuraneswarar & Ambal Lalithambigai #Thread 👇


#Legend #story
It is believed that this is birth place of Kashyapa Maharishi’s sons, Arunan& Garudan. Arunan(charioteer of Surya)was physically handicapped.He was a Shiva devotee.Arunan wanted to visit Kailash to have Shiva Darshan,but Surya Dev denied permission.

So Arunan disguised as a girl & was on his way to Kailash.On the way Surya Dev saw this girl & outraged her modesty.Shiva was very angry with Suryan for misbehaviour & cursed him to get darkened. Whole world plunged into darkness.Surya Dev pleaded to Bhagwan Shiv to forgive him.

Shiva Bhagwan asked him to go to Thirumiyachur & worship him there. As advised, Surya Dev performed rigorous penance, placed murthi of Shiva& Parvathy on an elephant & took them to the clouds.Shiva in this temple is known as Meganathaswamy,Devi is known as Lalithambigai


Even after severe penance,Shiva does appear,so Surya Dev cries out in agony.Disturbed by his call, Parvathy protests.Siva pacifies her & offers relief to Surya Dev.The sculpture of Shiva pacifying Ambal shows her sullen from one angle &smiling from another.

The YouTube algorithm that I helped build in 2011 still recommends the flat earth theory by the *hundreds of millions*. This investigation by @RawStory shows some of the real-life consequences of this badly designed AI.


This spring at SxSW, @SusanWojcicki promised "Wikipedia snippets" on debated videos. But they didn't put them on flat earth videos, and instead @YouTube is promoting merchandising such as "NASA lies - Never Trust a Snake". 2/


A few example of flat earth videos that were promoted by YouTube #today:

1. #Qanon told us that Saudi Arabia is a central piece of the puzzle in taking out the Deep State...we are watching the Deep State attempt to remove Crown Prince MBS and disrupt Pres Trump's administration's ties with MBS and the "new" Saudi/US coalition. Early in his admin,


2....@Potus sent Jared Kushner (JK) to SA on an undisclosed trip and told King Salman that business as usual was over, and if he wanted Pres Trump's support, Prince Alwaleed would have to be divested of $ and power; Alwaleed is one of top Deep State $ men and was tied to HRC.


3. @Potus knew that before he could begin cleansing the US and the rest of the world of the DS, he would have to cut one of the financial head's off the snake (Alwaleed). After JK met w/ King Salman, Alwaleed was arrested and divested of billions; MBS became leader of SA.


4. SA loves Pres Trump because he's a man of his word; SA could not trust Hussein or Clintons because they use SA for oil and leverage; SA has many factions, but essentially you have the new and upcoming SA that is attempting to modernize through Crown Prince MBS, and then you


5...have the old guard represented by Alwaleed who was one of the Deep State financial heads and loyal to the DS more than SA; SA knew Hussein was financing Iran to hold western world hostage, and SA was caught in middle of Deep State black mail; this is why @Potus was celebrated
