Welcome to my channel! Here I hope to help as many people as I can, with the experience I’ve had since 2008 as a software engineer.
LinkedIn has DESTROYED the job market (in 2024)
In this video, I discuss how the LinkedIn EasyApply feature, introduced in 2011, has contributed to the challenging job market we face today. I argue that while EasyApply was initially a great tool for both employers and job seekers, it has now led to an oversaturated market filled with spam applications, making it harder for qualified candidates to stand out. I also share insights on how to navigate this issue and why LinkedIn should consider removing the EasyApply button to improve the job search process.

I've been a software engineer since 2008 and with over a decade of experience, the industry is as crazy and as varied as ever.
I continually get asked for career advice and how to navigate writing code for a living and I wanted to share everything I've learned in hopes that I can help someone who is just starting in software engineering, who has been in it for a while and is too afraid to ask, or the seasoned vet to either agree or argue with me.
The intent of this channel is to have multiple series that include the following topics:
💰 Compensation
📈 Negotiations
📚 Career advice and guidance
📈 Stocks, RSUs, Stock options, and ESPP plans
👨🏫 Engineering interviews
I've done just about everything in software from working for 3 person start ups, 300 person start ups, silicon valley companies, Fortune 500 companies, small teams, big teams, W2 employment and 1099 contracting, full time contracting and moonlight part time work, independent development, launching my own web apps and iphone app.
