I would kill for a job that feels even remotely useful or interesting. Everything is crypto “web 3” bubble, fintech, or recruiters being very vague about “unicorn” startups that are just making useless services that clearly won’t go anywhere. I’ve also found that interviews don’t tell you much about reality. I’ve changed jobs a few times in recent years, every time I had interviews being told about interesting projects, great practices and so on, but once actually there was made to work on mind-numbing useless stuff. It honestly makes me feel like my skills and time are being wasted. I’ll be honest and say I consider myself to be pretty good at what I do (and it’s been confirmed at my past jobs where I quickly get that reputation), but I just don’t know where to find interesting opportunities that don’t feel like either a grift or being a parasite making money out of arguably evil things. How do you find interesting gigs?
