    can’t even make it to a 3rd interview when more than qualified for the jobs now… 5 years ago i could apply to 5 jobs and have 3 offers in weeks, now i apply to 50 jobs and get 2 interviews, neither of which make it past the 2nd round because now they have 1000 people applying per job

      About half the people working at the bottom level of my local library system (for less that $20/hr) have a Master’s, all have a Bachelor’s. It took someone I know 6 months to get through their hiring process to work part time…

      I got laid off in march this year. sent out about 600 apps in a month to literally anything qualified for. i got 3 interviews, only for positions i was way overqualified for, and didnt make it through the first round for any of them. i lucked the fuck out with getting reassigned to a position in a diff department, otherwise I’d be living with my parent after losing my home.

      There is no job market at the current moment; it simply does not exist. jokerfied

      Capitalism bends, but it doesn’t break

      Anyway, here are 10 wars, unprecedented ecosystem collapse, genocide, the resurgence of fascism, the end of free trade, the end of dollar hegemony, mismanaged pandemics, housing shortage, unsustainable debt, and the anti-christ has probably been born somewhere by now.

    People will never find a stable job again until the contradictions are resolved. Being unemployed chronically will evolve from a “moral failure” to common-hood.

    Soon you’ll have nothing to lose but your chains.

          soon when they shadow delete you what if they make it so your post also gets upvotes and comments from AI to make it seem like it wasn’t deleted

    I had a job interview today. First one in at least a month now. Below my skillset by a pretty good margin, but the pay is good and they still have work from home for now. Guy yawned through the whole interview, completely tuned out the second I started answering any of his questions, and then ran the interview over by 30 minutes. By the end he said I’d hear back from the recruiter with next steps before the end of the day. Well, no next steps, no surprise.

          Yeah, I’m kind of in a similar position here. I enjoy the work, I like my team, and I expect whatever job I’ll have next is going to be strictly worse.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

– PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE –

Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.

If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.

Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.

Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.

Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.

Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like ‘Raid: Shadow Legends’ in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.
