A few of people seem to disagree, so you might want to elaborate on what you're basing this advice on.

I don't mind if people disagree. Won't make me wrong.

"no one who is going to hire you will care"... I would care, but you're right, I wouldn't be going to hire him, because he's not a solid investment.

Nope. Because you're not going to be a jump up, you'd be a jump down. I covered that case already.

Not sure what that means, but you certainly have an interesting perspective.

@insidesin But how do you know you're right, and how would others know you're right?

@Kilisi Weird to start saying things that attempt to falsify what I said with "because I said so", then not understand why that's wrong... I guess he dodged a bullet with you then.

@Dukeling How would you know I'm wrong and how would others know I'm wrong? They don't. There's a reason the answers here are written by humans.

I'm not saying you're wrong or downvoting, just saying it would matter to me, I'm not everyone.

Yes. And your reason for why it matters to you is your own responsibility as I've already covered that archaic one.

@insidesin I'm just trying to help you improve your answer, not get into an argument.

I'm not even trying to improve the answer... I tend to agree with the premise that people who aren't going to hire him won't hire him.

Yes. People with low IQs aren't going to be accepted into an astronaut trial, so there aren't many entering.

I don't understand why this has so many downvotes. It's pretty much how it is these days. Even if your read is wrong, starting a business is a common thing now. No company willing to hire you is no problem if you can create value in the economy for yourself.

It has so many downvotes because it's horrible advice without anything to back it up. It might be ok advice for someone who does not want to do anything more than temporary, entry-level work. Maybe. But any other profession that requires knowledge, experience, and proper training? That's a good way to kill your career.
