问HN:你是如何找到你的工作的?

我很欣赏关于“谁在招聘 / 谁想被招聘”的帖子。我想知道我们是否可以稍微改变一下这个模式,讨论一下人们是如何找到他们现在的工作,或者那些在他们职业生涯中有意义和影响力的工作的。 定位:你是如何找到这份工作的?是这份工作找到你的? 面试:你做过什么让你脱颖而出的事情吗?有没有一些可能不太直观的不同策略? 生存:每份工作都有其缺陷,你是如何在面对让之前的工作变得困难 / 不愉快 / 无法忍受的问题时,维持自己的收入能力的? 我目前失业,早些时候辞去了在美国某州工作的职位,因为他们没有将软件开发视为一项重要工作。当你无法进行任何测试,得不到基础设施或项目管理的支持,所有事情都必须自己在一个封闭的环境中完成时,完成工作是非常困难的。还得在一个储藏室里的服务器上运行应用程序。 这是我人生中第一次“选择自己”,辞去了对我的心理健康产生非常负面影响的工作。找到一种方法重新回到职场很困难,因为我需要面对对敌对和有毒工作环境的恐惧。 希望能得到一些想法或方向,给我一些新的尝试,而不是一遍又一遍地做那些失败的事情。

I appreciate the who&#x27;s hiring &#x2F; who wants to be hired posts. I am curious if we can flip this pattern a little and have some discussions on how people found jobs they are in, or jobs that were meaningful and impactful in their careers.<p>Locating: How did you find the job? Did it find you?<p>Interviewing: Was there anything you did that made a difference? Different strategies that might not be intuitive?<p>Surviving: Every job has its flaws, what have you done to maintain your ability to earn an income despite issues that had made previous jobs difficult &#x2F; unpleasant &#x2F; untenable.<p>Currently unemployed, quit my job working for one of the states in the US earlier this year because they were not treating software development as a first class citizen. It&#x27;s hard to get work done when you can&#x27;t get any testing, can&#x27;t get any infra or PM support, have to do everything yourself in a vaccum. Have to run apps on a server in the closet.<p>First time in my life I &quot;chose myself&quot; and quit a job instead of staying in something that was very negatively affecting my mental health. It&#x27;s been hard to find a way to get back into employment without addressing fears of hostile, toxic work environments.<p>Fingers crossed for some ideas or directions that can give me some new things to try instead of just doing the same shit that fails over and over again.
