TELLING MYSELF THE REASON I’M GETTING JOB REJECTIONS IS DUMB LUCK
Not that I suck and the job market is shit and I’m sadly not connected enough to be a nepotism hire.

with the ATS shit filtering everything, it’s fucking impossible to even get seen. Tried a lot between 2023 & 2024. Ultimately just said screw it and founded something of my own.

ahahaha, it’s funny how nowadays, following your dream only seems to happen when you’re backed into a corner 😂

real talk as a former hiring manager, sometimes it is just dumb luck. sometimes an application doesn’t even get looked at :/ as a job seeker tho, it’s a real shitty feeling to get that string of rejections. best of luck to you on the search, you got this!!

Not your fault
Most people get jobs because they know someone. Your work might be great but if you don't have connections you're not going to get the same chance. I've heard of jobs being posted because they are required to, when on the backend they've already offered the job to someone...

HAVING LOTS OF LUCK AND GOOD CONNECTIONS
After graduating I kept my student job to fix the bills and then on the side I started applying for ones that related to my studies. Sucked ass big time. Soooo many applications and sooo many rejections. Eventually I got a paid internship through nepotism, which turned into a temp job. Was super lucky to receive that opportunity and hoping that the experience will help me when I need to start job hunting again.

NEPOTISM I THINK?
Been applying for entry level work (with several years of relevant experience) since January and genuinely the only people I know who got these jobs had some connection through family or friends.

SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE
Sure it has a few funny bits but it’s well past its prime. I haven’t seen an actually funny sketch in ages. Can we talk about how they’ve been milking that terrible Domingo sketch for months now? Where is the joke? Not to mention that terrible white lotus bit making fun of Aimee Lou Wood’s teeth. Tasteless.
