<p>parents excuse me if this comes across as insulting, but i honestly believe this…
I think part of the problem is that many newer grads who are having a hard time finding work… Have never worked. This
What i see most often with people who are having a hard time getting a job. Or they’re being too picky and think they are entitled to 50k and don’t want to worm their way up. This obviously isn’t everyone… But I’ve Seen. it quite a bit.</p>
<p>Out of curiosity, those of you who are not employed yet… Did you have jobs prior to now?</p>
<p>I see do many threads where people go off to summer programs or who do this or that without ever working a real job and who still get spending money from their parents.</p>
<p>Where I’m from, you want a car… You buy it. You need insurance for said car… You pay for it. You need gas? Same thing applies. Everyone in my home town works. My entire family started at 14. Nobody has had any Trouble finding a job. My one relative just turned 14 two weeks ago and has already started filling out applications. If a 14 year old can find a job do can you.</p>
<p>If I’m interviewing someone for a job with a 4.0 and no with experience and someone with a 3.0 who has been working for 6 years chances are I’m going with the experienced person assuming they interview well.</p>
<p>Take that menial job at walmart and get some with experience. Even if it doesn’t pay well. While you’re working there keep sending out resumes with Walmart on them as job experience. Nobody wants to see someone sitting around for a year when they could be working and learning things that come with any kind Job.</p>
<p>There are jobs out there. We hire hundreds of people each year. </p>
<p>Join linkedin .make connections. Ask friends if they’re hiring. Some places give referral bonuses and love hiring referrals</p>
