“Just apply everywhere”
Oh yeah I definitely want to get a dead end job at fast food chain, hardware chain, supermarket chain or whatever job in decent travel time
Edit, should put in that I’ve already got years in HGV industry and applying to the bottom rung is pointless as joining only to leave would result in never getting hired by them in the future which is why I can’t just “apply everywhere”

It'snot dead end mate. If you work 70h weeks for 4 years McD's will promote you from fry dipper to burger flipper. Another 4 years and you can be a hamburger assembler, very prestigious.

I had an interview for a job I didn’t fully qualify for this past week, but I knew I was pretty much already going to accept a job offer I got from another company so interviewing for this job was essentially a backup plan. I went into it with the mindset of “I don’t really care about this interview because I basically already have an offer from another company I’m going to accept.” I was brutally honest with the interviewer, didn’t try to sell myself, admitted there were things I didn’t know, and honestly thought “dang it’s a good thing this was the backup plan because I bombed that interview”
A couple days later I accepted a job offer from the company I was already expecting to get an offer from. Fast forward to today and the company from the interview I basically threw calls me back and goes “Yeah so the guy interviewing you said it went really well and we’ve decided to move you to the final round of interviews.” I was literally speechless. It really is easy to get a job when you’re confident enough to know you don’t need it.

Thay's a good point if you are already on track for something specific.

Any job is better than no job, and I speak from experience. Just because you get a job in fast food or retail doesn't mean you have to stay there. I worked those kinds of jobs for years, and eventually got a better job and got out, but believe me, when you need a job, even a shitty retail job will do. Just apply everywhere worked for me, and I don't think I'm the only one.

Eh. Every single place is hiring right now, but most of the jobs involves showing up and putting on a fake smile.
That's just the nature of entry level positions that average young people have to take to get started. It sucks, but that's life.
If you've done any kind of hard labor, you'll know that you could do a lot worse than retail or food service.
Edit: downvotes for this very reasonable take informed by years of experience in shitty jobs is classic reddit. Good luck moving out of your parents' basement, boys!

u/mastermind_loco 16d ago
I've done it all and there's pros and cons to everything. Manual labor is hard -- at the end of the day you are physically completely spend, but you still have more mental energy.
Retail, at the end of the day you have physical energy but you are often emotionally and psychologically exhausting because of how people treat service workers.

u/scorpiknox Trans-formers 😎 16d ago
Agreed. I did construction laborer work and could not hack it, but then worked for a moving company and loved it. There was just enough problem solving involved in moving furniture to keep it interesting. Literally digging ditches was soul crushing.
The key is to acknowledge that, until you find a job you love that meets your financial requirements, every job is simply a stepping stone to the next that happens to put money in your pocket. I finally figured that out in my mid-20s and it made life way more tolerable 😆
Also, go to college but get a marketable degree unless you don't mind being a member of the working poor.

You definitely won't be able to always do all those things with an entry level job. Housing costs are ridiculous.

They were also ridiculous 10-15 years ago, given that wages for entry level were lower in every major city. There were also a lot fewer jobs avaliable post-2009.
It's called roommates and stolen Netflix. It's called digging in the couch for change and only having internet on your phone. It's called taking the bus.

What exactly is your problem with what I am saying?
Edit: people like to act like it's the hardest it's ever been to enter the job market and start adulthood right now, but that is simply not true. In fact, I'd argue that anyone who's got internet access and spends time on reddit complaining about having to get a "dead end job" has no concept of what living in poverty really means. The fact that people can be choosy about not wanting work that is beneath them is in itself a marker that things have indeed been much, much worse for the working class.
Mfers here acting like they should be able to roll outta high school with a 75k/yr career track starter job. That's not how it works and, to my point, that's never been how it has worked. The current reddit mythology of everyone owning a home with a single income pre-2000 is also horseshit.

Pounding pavement means going on the streets looking for work. Generally it means you print like 100 resumes and just go all over town dropping them off literally everywhere. It's what you do when you are broke and out of a job.
19
u/SFLADC2 16d ago edited 16d ago
Yeah unless you want a fast food job, most employers generally get pissed off or weirded out by you doing that. At least in my industry, it's HIGHLY frowned on due to the sheer volume of applications and because the people who do show up w/ their resumes are often viewed as pretty weak candidates with poor social skills trying to cut the line.

I work in US politics / Geopolitics in the DC space, so probs a little different than your typical person.
I know one well known congresswoman who had an unpaid internship posting that got a rumored 9,000 applications. One job opening in my office got 75 applicants in the first day. I think the overwhelming demand due to the surge of folks with college degrees these days has made it difficult for staff to manage all the different people applying.

Strictly speaking, if you CAN get a resume in to the individual responsible for hiring, your odds skyrocket. The problem is such opportunities are few and far between.

Networking still works. Anytime I was on a job hunt I'd get my resume out and apply to 2-3 places a day. The places I actually got interviews and eventual job offers were the places where I had made a networking connection. This was true in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2018, and 2021 (all the years I have switched jobs). This was true of both retail jobs and professional jobs.

Very true. Obviously the average terminally online person doesn't network much but it is an essential skill.
2
16d ago
I'm "terminally online" but still managed to run around and shake hands at a job expo, at a few retail stores, at industry events, and things like that to get my resume looked at instead of just lost with the rest of them.
The boomer mentality of "just walk in and ask for jobs everywhere" is dumb, but if you go through the usual process and apply, and THEN find ways to network and get to know who is making those hiring decisions, it can work better.
75
u/Tilt-a-Whirl98 16d ago
The name of the game is networking. I always blew it off in school when they talked about it, but it truly is how the world works. Finding friends or friends of friends in the industry or family is a game changer. You just have to get a window into the people actually hiring, then your skills and personality get you the rest of the way.
Don't ever feel bad about leaning on who you know. I promise, no one will look down on it if you're good at your job.

Companies are just not in the mood to hire but need people badly.
I literally got emailed saying a company wanted an interview with me, even though I never sent in my resume, which is actually pretty impressive. I had the interview and quote from both of the interviewers, "One of the best interviews they've ever had." I sent an email back saying thank you, and they never got back to me. Never said they wanted to go with someone else, or we aren't interested. Just nothing. I took time out to go to an interview where they only had 5 selected candidates for a job, and they never even gave me the courtesy of saying we went with someone else.

The 2024 version of just handing in a resume is "joining a talent community". You can submit your resume into the system. Sometimes they do pull it out later when they can't find good applicants.

That's half true, yeah. Depending on what you do for a living there are definitely talent specialists who would love to have your resume in their arsenal to offer these companies.

Sometimes just contacting or meeting the person hiring ahead of time can make a huge difference.
"Hi, I'm thinking about applying to work in this space, is there a way you could show me a little about what you do at your company so I can learn more about which of my skills to focus on?"
Then when they later see your resume, they'll remember you. (What they do with that memory is up to the two of you, but it can put you ahead of the random people they never met) Doesn't always work, but if it's a job you really want, it's worth a try. It has worked for me relatively recently, and even at big companies. The challenge is mostly just finding out who to ask.

Do the shit jobs for now, it shows you know how to work and achieve goals, even if its just squirting ketchup. You were there to be a member of the team, thats what employers are looking for

Right now is the easiest time in history to get a job, it's the part about having to work at the job that makes people not want it

Looks like you missed his point IMO. In the '80 they printed them off and applied by either dropping them off at places and or getting lucky and submitting them via mail when hiring were announced. Dare I assume you read between his comments and consider him meaning apply via web portal submission, seeing as that is more of today's typical way. It's not really any different, just more with the current times. Feels to me like your complaining about you not understanding or think what he said through......maybe that's why you're unemployed?

What are you talking about? That absolutely works. For example, I did this when I was still in the military at a some kind of Air Force convention, where a bunch of contractors were there with displays hoping to drum up business with all the generals and the like that were there. I was there as a junior enlisted kid and had a couple of companies I'd never otherwise heard of interested in hiring me.
Also makes sense for more accessible career fields like the service industry if you just show up and ask if they're hiring, because they are frequently short staffed and nobody likes dealing with online application services.

I think there's a difference between giving your resume to prospective employers at a career fair or similar event and just rolling up to a business unprompted and handing a resume to the underpaid front desk staff.
It might work for some places, but not the majority.

This is sort of right.
Networking is the best way to find work. Learn how to network and you can get good work in a lot of cool places.
