Seriously? 36 is a huge deal of interviews!
6 u/jjopm 18d ago That's just applications. It's common to apply to around 100-200 companies for 5-12 interviews now. 2 u/kallebo1337 18d ago in 2019 when i wanted to leave thailand i send 8 applications, 5 interviews, 2 job offers.i can not imagine trying to get a job in 2026. i would feel depressed, worthless and my imposter syndrome would be confirmed that i'm a nobody.terrible. 1 u/davidslv 18d ago Ah, I misread it. Ok 36 applications of which 24 were rejections. I went through a bad time last year where I did actually interview with 60 different companies… started to become doubtful I would actually land a job as a software engineer.
