So someone helped get me an interview with the company that they work for but I was in the ER (and later hospital) for a few days due to heart issues I was having. The person told the recruiter that and while they seemed to be somewhat understanding and scheduled my interview for next week, I think it destroyed my chances of getting the job. I never told them it was ok to tell the recruiter that I was in the ER, they just did it of their own volition. My Mitral and Tricuspid valves are failing and I have to have open heart surgery. I had to launch a gofundme so I could get an insurance policy off the healthcare marketplace (which I still need to raise enough to pay for the copays for the scans (which I cant get the scans without paying the copay first) and the maximum out of pocket).
I feel like there is no way I am going to get a high paying job if a potential employer googles my name because I have to fund raise to afford a surgery that I will have a long miserable drawn out death without. They're going to google my name and see I have serious medical issues and decide to higher someone else that is at least in moderately better health. I literally just want to have a job that I can do quietly, and go home at the end of the day. I dont want to hustle or grind. I just want to be able to afford my medical costs and lead a quiet life and that seems completely impossible at this point… I have 3 degrees (only 2 are actually relevant for work) but despite that, based off my past experience, my health issues are going to scare off any potential employers and I feel completely hopeless…
