      I was a stay-at-home dad while my wife was a high payed lawyer, or I had to care for my elderly mother while she was dying from ass cancer, or I was doing drugs but I’ve been clean for over a year now, or shut up that’s none of your business why are you even asking this shit for a job that requires no education or experience!?..

      People lie to get higher paying jobs, lie to get a lower one:

      5 year a Accenture doing Full Stack Development = 5 years at Accenture on the loading dock

      “You’re hired, welcome at Ford.”

      Doesn’t need to be a gap, just make it less than what you were really doing.

  Is your experience IT or do you also have (even rudimentary) programming experience? Industrial automation is a great option. I feel blessed, having started from below the bottom (not all people are fit to be parents!) working as a metal carpenter while still underage, to have managed to get into this field, through hard work and, most importantly, a good amount of luck.

  It’s unlikely you did anything “wrong” our system just sucks.
