LEUVEN, BELGIUM—After what appeared to be a fun academic career without no one calling on his phone, except for his mom on Sundays, Wouter started searching for a job after graduation.

He thought uploading his CV on various job sites would be a good idea, but little did he know this would end his nights of sleep and moments of self-reflection in the deep calmness of silence.

Only 10 minutes after uploading his CV, Wouter received at least 100 calls in a row from what appeared to be a crowd of recruiters fighting for his valuable 2 months of experience. Feeling almost dehydrated after hours of repeating the same things over and over again, Wouter put his phone on silent for the rest of the day.

“I thought people these days had stopped calling other people. Phew!! What a day!”, he stated exhausted. “I will have to limit my search to those companies paying in crypto.”

He then stated he was thankful for the day because now he’s inspired to program a robot that will completely replace anyone who still needs to pick up a phone.

At the moment of edition, we learned Wouter accepted an offer, and before even starting he has already been promoted to Medior Engineer.
