has anyone else been having a really rough time job hunting?
for the past 4 months ive been applying to jobs with about the past 3 weeks or so really ramping up my applications. ive been sending like 20 applications a week and im getting rejection emails left and right or just straight ghosted. im 22 i have restaurant experience, i have cashier and retail experience, why is it so hard to find a job in the same industry ive been working in? and even entry level jobs im seeing are asking for 1-2 years of experience. how is anyone supposed to start out as a barista for example (a position ive been trying for) if no one is willing to train? this whole process has been so humiliating, like im a little jester dancing around for the minuscule chance to be noticed. im asking this question to hopefully see im not the only one, and if anyone has advice i would greatly appreciate it! #local source
