[quote=Anonymous]I made it into the industry with a Ph.D. in Socia Sciences. It took four years to land a full-time remote well-compensated role I wanted. I worked for free for a year for a small startup in exchange for a “title,” then 2 years as a contractor for 20 hours a week. I could not even cover a babysitter with the money I made. I applied for positions non-stop, I made cold-calls on Linkedin, I went for countless coffees, I pretty much begged for an opportunity to work. Finally, a year as a contract to hire before being offered the current position. I was depressed a lot, I have almost got divorced because of my inability to prove my worth, and I DH refused to have another kid because of me not being able to find a job. I am happy now, fwiw.[/quote]
