>it's another you didn't get the job episode
why do they keep rerunning this one? One would think they'd get as tired of showing the same old thing as I get of seeing it.
seriously though fuck this shit
>go to job fairs, networking events
>go to mock interview and other career workshops
>get a masters degree, bunch of certifications
>spend hours creating linkedin files, professional resume, hundreds of cover letters
>one year later still no job, 5 interviews from probably 300-400 applications total
>they won't even interview me for fucking $12/hr positions, I LITERALLY MADE MORE MONEY DOING UNSKILLED MANUAL LABOR and they still wont even entertain the idea of hiring me
what the fuck is wrong with our society?

Is it rational to assume you may be considered overqualified or unlikely to be satisfied with a low wage?

Please respond OP.

I have also been stuck in marginal employment since I've graduated.

Your robot aura is probably too strong. Every employer wants a social team player employee. The job market is so saturated that they can hold out for just those types of people
you ever notice how jobs overwhelmingly dominated by men tend to have much better pay and job security? that's because women don't want to work these jobs, so the number of candidates available is much smaller. but nearly every other job has dozens, sometimes even hundreds of people applying for a single position. this is because women entering the workforce has doubled the total labor available. also you have most people applying for these comfier jobs and usually at entry-level, so your competition is even greater. for a while going for jobs requiring degrees could improve your chances, but now that every dumbfuck goes to college that's no longer the case.
and I'm not even saying that all roasties shouldn't be allowed to work and should solely be housewives, I think that ideally women should have the same opportunities, but you can't change the fact that doing so creates this huge problem. and /pol/fags and hicks like to blame immigrants, but immigrants don't really do much damage. well spics at least, if anything they work jobs that most people stay away from. however changs and pajeets certainly take a good number of white collar jobs.
