I've applied to a bunch of NYC government jobs today

Just went through the website and applied to everything I meet the minimum qualifications for, for what good it may do.

They could, in theory, save my information from one application to the next. They don't do that. They could also not require me to answer "where did you hear about this?" every time - but the joke's on them. "I went to your website and clicked on every job where I meet the minimum qualifications" is not an option, so I've just been lying and saying "hiring event" because that's the first choice. They will get no useful data from me, no thank you!

Some of those jobs are slow to respond. I think my sister got a reply to one of them many years later.

Good luck; I hope you get lots of callbacks for something you’d appreciate.
