MODERATORS
Confidence. Connections. Opportunities.
Act like you know what you're doing (you are likely more capable than you give yourself credit for). Be open to networking opportunities.
Give yourself the opportunities to get a job by applying to places you might be at least a 50% match for, using a well-crafted resume. A lot of these job listings are written on a game of telephone. A lot gets mistranslated between the dev team, management, and HR. Let the interviewer and your own judgement decide if you're a good fit or not after the interview, not that job listing.
These folks are getting to the hiring managers just by sheer number of applications (or knowing the right people), knowing how to get past the filters, and presenting themselves as a great candidate. Do the same, and you might have better luck.
But mainly whiteness.
the intern in my story is not white.
people are downvoting you, but you're right
Idk about mainly but the literal reason DEI exists is because racists sometimes have hiring privileges.
They don't even have to be a racist. It could just be some form of racial bias. It's usually a bias that they aren't even aware of, and it gets glossed over as "the candidate wasn't a good culture fit" or something like that.
