But even if you finished one of these courses and have a job. if your company would only pay you minimum, or even if you work on government and you also got pay minimum. due to corruptions. nothing will happened. you really need to do is to have business and job at the same time. but sometimes. i would rather choose a school that. you have to pay for tuition fees. at least somehow when you got finished on college. your only problem is to have job and if you got minimum wage salary. at least somehow you will pay nothing.

Just lie on your resume like everyone else. If employers can put bullshit requirements, you put bullshit experience.

As a career monkey, can confirm. A few things: 1) I love that everybody is Wojak. Feels like a nice touch about feeling like a drone. 2) It's my job as a hiring manager to get the best people at the lowest wage. Even whilst not recruiting, I have a yearly budget, and I pick who gets more money to some degree based on where it is most needed. If you are happy with your salary and don't show growth / ask for more, that's one less mouth to feed, so to speak. 3) When you're asked what your expectations are, you should have some idea based on location / industry / job title / etc. I have in the past accepted lowball offers too, but you need to learn quickly as salary growth compounds. I like to say, "depends on the job requirements", because if you're not happy with the role / offer, they can be things you can offer to include to bridge gaps. If they are still reluctant, "I'm really convinced I'm worth x, and although I'd be happy to accept x -5% to start, once I pass my probation, can we agree on x" (get it written, obvs). Know your worth. Don't let me / hiring / HR / your manager take advantage of you, because we will.

Does this work in Reality or is this some multiverse where HR or whatever it is preffered, suggested, mentioned; Actually does the recruiting? Also is this the 70s, 80s you talk about when there was economic boom and labour was demand based on the skill? I read a book called "Beauty Pays" which beautiful people will get jobs easier. Not to mention I even had an experience in a job hunt, walk-ins where i was with this W@hmen. My Resume was much much, far better clean, to the point and no fluff ( just as youHR would always suggest but somehow still overlook) than this W@hmen, after the interviews were done. The next day W@hmen calls me and said she got the job mind you her Resume had no effort and no achievements were stated and long paragraphs were written, she told me to make a new Resume. I asked her why what's wrong with hers and here is where I got my first sense of the real truth and not some BS HR would say; She told me they dint care about her resume but they asked to make a new resume and fabricate some false experience. Mind you she already lied in her original resume. At this point I wanted to see how it goes, I cleaned the CV used bullet points fabricated so much so that even the fake company name was a generic one which you can google, the fabricared experience was so overblown like as if she discovered gravity or was the CEO of google. So much fluff, so much false responsibility. Guess what, she got the job and a higher pay than advertised. She was sooooo happy. So take your HR advice and shov it right where Bogdanoff Dumps it.

My regret is college High school was kind of a waste of time, tangibly. But i gained a lot from it, spiritually. As weird as that sounds

So true, even for myself I got a Masters at a good uni and eventually got a decent grad job as an Electronics Engineer designing sensors and displays. Meanwhile, my mate makes 50% more than me whilst paying no tax doing Gardening and odd jobs paying no rent. I'm happy for him but the grind for a "good job" and good education doesn't seem worth it and it's a slap in the face even when you do everything right in the right field, schools and etc. In fact,t uni/college students are probably worse off than a NEET because you also waste 3 to 4 except for the NEET also has no job but no debts and you do.

So step out of your comfort zone, forget that paid for degree for a moment, and go get a job landscaping, construction, driving, delivery, painting, anything that's making you enough money to support the life you want to live. We work jobs for 2 reaosns, we need money to support our hobbies, nessecities and families (if we have them), and becasue even if it's something we don't like or think we're too good for, it's just 8 hours a day 5 days a week so we can be comfortable and survive. That's not too bad. Or go to trade school, that'll get you to the money if you stick it out.

Reminds me of what a Service Manager said once: “One of my jobs is to pay the candidate as little as possible, while extracting as much productivity as I can” This holds some valuable lessons: - Know what the job market is for that position and for your experience. - Follow up with the other places so that you have the potential to increase your options as far as an employer goes. - Always continue to build your skill and increase your value. - If you have limited choice and have to take the poor paying position, take it until you find something better and use them as a stepping stone

Missed the bit where because nobody is calling back he tries to get an unskilled minimum wage job but they reject him because he is "overqualified" and "clearly not serious about the role". How serious do you need to be to flip burgers and stack shelves.

Were I to lose my current job, I could take up to a couple months to properly look for something that would be an upgrade from it. For many others though, I wish the government didn't stupidly declare college education as a "human right" 50 years ago, as that's what caused college tuition to shoot through the roof. If young adults weren't able to borrow 100k, college wouldn't cost 100k. But because of the government, they can. Let that sink in.

Don't work hard, be lazy, play video games and sponge every cent you can get from the state. Putting the effort in won't get you any further forward.

I don't get paid a huge amount but this makes me realise how much I appreciate my job. I'm a photographer and I'm always late, but I always do a good job so somehow I get away with it, and knowing how some companies treat their staff for lateness even by a minute that seems priceless. My advice is don't apply for big corporate companies, try to find something local that's more in touch with reality and help it grow, or try to start something yourself, you will be more valued. Know your worth when bargaining a wage, never accept the first offer. Use figures and estimations to back up the reasons why you deserve a higher wage and how it will benefit them. All parties just want value for their time or money. You trade your productivity for more money. If you feel you deserve twice as much, work half as hard.

My experience was complete opposite to this. After my stint with a big local media company, I joined a small e-commerce kitchenware startup for a hike and it was a nightmare where a lot of abusive behaviour was normalised in the form of startup culture. Had to leave it in 2 months just because of how toxic it turned out. Now at a huge book publishing corporation and no one here gives a slight fuck when I come in or go, as long as I get my job done. The startup job felt like the owner had his hawk eyes on you. The impersonalisation at big corporates allows me to focus on my work which isn't the case with startups. Startups and even small business too, want a unicorn at peanut wages. Sure, there's growth and I can see from where you are coming from where you might say, that the startup grind is going to take you places, but no. That's just a utopian dream most of them show. These businesses tend to not last very long. I'd rather be employee number 150000 at some company rather than being micro managed by a startup CEO who thinks I should make his startup my whole priority for which I am being paid shit wages.

I'm lucky to have gotten a great job offer before I graduated college.

Don't be afraid to negotiate, the money is worth more to you than it is to them.

5:03 "Happiness at work" should be fighted and destroyed. 10 - 20 years ago people worked for the pay and the promotions.

10 commandments for you zoomers when you start your first interview(s) post grad: 1. If you scored an interview, they want you, so you have bargaining power 2. If they say, 'We are like family" - run 3. If they say, "You will not get rich here." - run 4. If the most recent hire has been there for 5+ years - run 5. If the grand majority of employees have been there for 10+ years - run 6. If the online job description does not match with what the manager is saying during the interview - run 7. If they ask, "where do you see yourself in 5 years?", what they're really asking is, "are you willing to do the same thing for 5 years and be happy? if not then leave." 8. Make sure that if you make a deal with the hiring manager that you either get a verbal or written agreement depending on the situation, "e.g. You have to take care of your children and are required to leave at 3 P.M. everyday, make sure you get that in writing." 9. Make sure you know how to get in touch with human resources when sh*t inevitably hits the wall 10. If you are allowed a tour of the workplace, only talk to grunt workers. Supervisors and other managers will lie through their teeth to get you to sign on Even if you are in absolute dire straights, please consider these commandments because there is no point in taking the job then quitting 2-3 months later and having to explain it to the next interviewer

About #3 and #4, I would not suggest to run but to check how the hiring company gets jobs done. For instance, how junior can evolve in this company? Are they stuck because of the manager etc. Anyway, if people are treated nicely, a junior position gets you the necessary experience at the end to apply to a better position somewhere else. Anyway, nice commandment checklist!

My only thing is that you don’t need to add the 2-3 months of work experience from the last job you quit onto the resume. It’s not like they have a way to find out (I guess they could look up your name in a system or ask around with people from other companies but they have so many people that they physically can’t keep track about every little detail)

I remember that job search bs like it was yesterday even if it was over a decade ago. So many companies asking for at least 2 years xp for a starter position. The moment i got those years under my belt I was getting pestered by recruiters non stop.

Do the Wagie Waggle!

I got a degree in a field that actually exists, got crap pay for the first year then bounced for the next four years until I landed at a place that actually appreciates me. I also started out at a community college and worked while in school. No debt. Sorry to all the people that fell for these college loans backed by the government. That was predatory.

Same shit happened to me. Didn't have student loan but I did had 2 degrees, bilingual and a war veteran. +300 applications later I received an offering as an accountant assistant. (PART TIME, NO BENEFITS, MINIMUM WAGE) 🙂🙃🙂🙃🙂🙃🙂🙃🙂

Getting a degree just because it feels like the next best step is not the best idea (especially if studying is expensive in your area). Also its worth looking at the job situation before studying, Supply and demand applies for Jobs too

Skip telling them it was part time and also skip adding the part time job on your CV. Getting experience is key to getting a job. Catch 22, yes, but you need to game the system to get your foot in.
