Job Sites

How the fxxk do you find a job?

TheRocker asked:


Answering ads, sending resumes. No call.

Improved resume with advice. No call.

I call companies, speak with recruiters, say they’ll get back to me. No call.

Whenever they say “It’s not me that makes the final decision” = No call.

I follow up with them. Instead I get a wonderful email about how wonderful the weather is outside and I should go out and enjoy it. = No call.

I see hype about these “awesome” job sites and respond to ads. No call.

They email me “thank you” for my resume now that I’m on their Royal DataBase. No call.

I have education, skills, talent, etc. No call.

Is it the online age where 19 yr olds are applying to the same positions as older professionals contributing to a blur in distinction and to a mass pool?

Ok, I lied. I DO get calls - but they reveal as “jobs” for door sales, telemarketing or even MLM. It’s a good learning opportunity for a teenager who lives at home and is just building experience. But I want a real job. I have bills.

WTF do I have to do?
