And people like that boss doesn’t even realize he’s celebrating his own inefficiency and incompetence when declaring they’ll go through that many applications without hiring somebody. Why do you want to be bad at finding talent and why do you want people to know you can’t recognize skill?
They’re probably not going through that many applications, they’ll be using a screening company or system that’s dropping every applucation that doesn’t have whatever the magical combination of keywords is in this particular case. I can only imagine it’s git even worse with the use if LLMs for screening.
I went thru several months of it. Even with my anxiety meds, it felt like I was losing my mind.
Try multiple different periods of years of it… :/
Sucks, man. (got something now, though)

Sounds super rough… Really hope things worked out in the end and you’re all better now!
Thanks! Things improved but aren’t good. Just less bad
