Im going to start physical mailings and cold emails. I’m over this job market, its AI/ATS nonsense, and the people who think its OK.

Tree fiddy is the only price I’m willing to pay.

I’m not quite sure how to jump into this, so here we go.

I’ve found myself unable to get new work but am in a position that I know my job is gone in 3 months. Academic, no funding.

I’ve been using Claude to parse through job postings and help me tailor a CV or resume. I never, if at all, even get a rejection email. I’m sad to say but leaving academia is going to likely be a survival issue. The prospect of having to get passed AI screeners is insane to me. AI is ruining so much in ordinary everyday life so rapidly that I’m frankly shocked…and I did climate disaster research so I’m hard to shock.

I tried it in BG3 and just nopped out. I just can’t do it. Neutral at worst for me.
