>>54313283>>54309677>my friends from college no longer keep up with me>if they do come up its just to ask for favorswtf contact them and try to have them help you get your foot into the door. if they ask for favors, ask them to help you find a job. I did that shit and landed a remote job because I had friend refer me to them and got past the word filter auto-filter for resume submissions.
comp sci jobs live and die by having connections and i've gotten rejected multiple times up to that point applying as an outsider (this was during 2022 too) for months until I found something in November of that year through that friend.
