@mansur85 these guys weren’t HR, it was a dev team leader and one of the project managers.
I can only think it’s because between my family and studying (mature student doing a degree in software development) I don’t have time to go to conferences or do much work on side projects etc.
I mean I’ve spent the last 20 years working in it and the last 5 working my way to my current dev job. Not sure what else they wanted to see. -
@zarathustra Sourcecode from your current workplace!!!

@max19931 I think my current employer might have something to say if I started sharing their source code about.
I recently got rejected for a couple of jobs I was going for, no dramas they both wanted someone with a bit more experience.
They both returned feedback which I like, much better than getting ghosted.
But one of them said that they didn’t “see any enthusiasm for IT/Technology throughout the interview”
This annoyed me a little as I’m not entirely sure how they measured this I’ve the course of a 40 minute teams meeting. Especially given my work and study history etc.
Has anyone else ever had anything like this given as part of a reason why you didn’t get a job, and if so did you do anything to rectify it or just ignore it as meaningless feedback?
