Dude I can’t even get hired at a grocery store. I apply and apply and apply to all sorts of shit and nobody ever responds. I’ve filled out over 100 applications, and all I got out of that was 3 interviews and no offers.
It was easier to find work when I first entered the job market in 2008, right after the economy crashed. The last time I had to look for job was right before COVID, and it was easy as hell. Literally applied to 3 jobs and was hired within 2 weeks. What the hell changed in recent years?
You are too old/skilled/educated/mobile/employable for non premium works, so the non-premium works take a pass on you.
Dumb down your resume or work for a temp agency for a bit. Pretend you have addiction issues. Be a little emotionally volatile. People will hire you on the basis of, they can potentially exploit you.
The economy didn’t respond they way “it should have” by tightening… so corporates had to just resort to good old fashioned collusion to teach the workforce they can’t ask for things like hybrid and payraises.

Age-ism.

It’s kind of blowing up in their face.
Unironically, Amazon is the easiest job to get if there are positions open on their official hiring page.
LOL I was fired from Amazon, hence why I need a job.
