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.

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.

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...

Hello New England friend, I have been applying to places since November!! We are talking entry level shit like cashiers and front desk jobs!!! I have been working since I was like 14 when my parents sent me to the farm and am more than qualified for any entry level shit aside from serving. I really think that places are just not hiring right now at all. You have to find a local business where you can meet the owner in person. Many listings I’ve applied for are still active online several weeks later!! It’s a shit show!!!!!!

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.
