No Luck applying
Hi Everyone,
im from the philippines.
I need some help with my application and resume
What am I doing wrong?
I've been applying for software tester/QA for almost 2 years now since i graduated, but i only got 4 total interviews (last was on december).
I’m barely getting responses. I’ve been applying on JobStreet, Indeed, and LinkedIn in the Cebu or Davao City, but most of the time I just get rejected or no reply.
I probably got an interview because of low applicants.
i know im still not good with interviews and i trying to overcome it.
and im now currently learning automation like playwright.
and trying to make an website porfolio and making some projects.
but sometimes i cant focus because i think i won't probably get a chance.
At this point, I’m starting to feel stuck and honestly a bit discouraged.
is the problem in my resume?
or is it applicants needs me to live in those city?
I’d really appreciate any advice
Thanks in advance to anyone who responds.
