    Ugh I got an email like that just a few days ago. “Make a 3min video explaining why you want to work for us and what you bring to the table”. I sway back and forth between refusing to be their stupid dancing monkey and being desperate enough for a new job to consider it. The company itself seems like a shitshow (an AI startup that works with insurance companies) but the job posting itself is in exactly the niche I like with the exactly the technologies I specialize in and the pay is extremely competitive. Honestly idk if I’m gonna go for it or if I have any ounce of self-respect.

    My favorite was, upload you resume after spending 45 minutes filling out the exact same shit. You know no one is looking at your resume at all.

      All video recorded on an iDevice defaults to HEVC h.265 .mov. QuickTime is dead (at least to the public) but the codecs are an industry standard.

    Grok, generate a CV, cover letter, and video so I get the job. Make it so good that they double the offered payment.
