[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know people will say work at target, giant etc. I applied at both of these places and can’t get hired. I really don’t know what the solution is when you can’t even get the most basic of jobs. I applied for temporary cash assistance but likely won’t get that either.

How is that possible?  My resume makes me look like a total loser, I only stay at random jobs for 3 months before quitting (flight risk), and I only have college degrees. I barely have any consistent work experience at all.

Yet I can get some random office job or paralegal position with a salary of 50k (in Arlington) by just applying to a couple open positions. I even bomb the interviews and still somehow get hired. I lie and say I will stay for a few years, even though I plan to quit in a few months (I technically don't have to work, but I enjoy more purposeful jobs)

Places are super desperate for in-person workers who will take "low" salaries (which is 50k) in Arlington. Since everyone with more experience/degrees can find hybrid or remote work for much higher pay.

I genuinely feel like people who claim they "can't" find a job after applying to "hundreds" of positions are using sites like indeed (which is awful) or applying to stuff that has been posted for weeks. You need to apply to recent postings on actual company websites. I think ziprecruiter is decent too if you don't know where to start......... Or maybe people just have poorly constructed resumes.
