A Feature, Not a Bug: How the Tech Job Market is Rigged Against Workers with Lauren Friedman 1:04:33

cách đây 6 weeks trước1:04:33

1:04:33

It might sound like a conspiracy to say that tech workers are subject to a rigged job market designed by billionaires for the consolidation of wealth and power. After 2+ years of continued instability, mass layoffs, a hellacious job market, wage stagnation, RTO mandates, and ever increasing workloads, we need no more proof that Big Tech bosses and their acolytes see workers as disposable cogs in a machine. Amy talks with Lauren Friedman, founder of Workforce Consulting, LLC , to unpack the hidden forces and power plays shaping the tech job market. With extensive experience in tech recruiting and workforce consulting, Lauren spills the tea on the machinations of Big Tech to hoard talent, knowledge, and money as a deliberate business strategy with disastrous consequences for millions of tech workers. Precarity has come to tech work, but you don’t have to be a fish in a barrel. We have the individual and collective power to enact change and survive this together. Please support the show!

In this AMA, Amy and Laura (or maybe her doppelgänger) answer some listener-submitted questions. - Hiring managers want UX rock stars, so how do you get hired if you've had the misfortune of working in places where you weren’t supported or were underutilized, and didn't get to have much impact or work on cool stuff? - How do you describe work impact on your resume if it's not tracked or measured, a project got canceled, or you got laid off and don't know what happened? - What should specialist designers do in a job market that favors generalists and visual design skills? Is a generalist path still viable? - A role for Senior UXR at Amazon wants 6+ years leading research projects with demonstrated impact. Would academic research count toward this? - I was recently interviewing for a job and the salary I discussed with the recruiter was $105K-$110K CAD. I got the job and now they’re offering me $82K-$90K CAD. Is there a way to re-negotiate this offer? - What’s your take on engaging with LinkedIn content that's critical about the inhumanities of the job search?

Today we answer some great questions from our fabulous listeners! Hope it helps! Is it worth applying to jobs on LinkedIn and Indeed? We're supposed to network to find a job, but what do you do when no one you know has an open role? When hundreds or thousands of people apply to a job in just a few days, should you even bother? Why does it seem like companies are hiring more UX contractors these days? What does it mean for the future of the field? What are some UX research-adjacent careers that pay the same? With more companies wanting hybrid designer-researchers, what does this mean for the evolution of our skill sets? Why are companies passing up on qualified, extending the process in search for the “perfect candidate" (who may not actually exist)? Why do I keep seeing the exact same jobs getting reposted every few months for nearly 2 years now? This episode is sponsored by the University of Pennsylvania Stuart Weitzman School of Design.
