The Job Market Is Hell

Young people are using ChatGPT to write their applications; HR is using AI to read them; no one is getting hired.

    I met or exceeded every single requirement for all sorts of jobs that were “urgently hiring” and after 8 months of applying to a few jobs a day, i still had 0 interviews. I eventually got a job at a small local business i discovered was hiring through some small talk. The days of a smile and handshake aren’t dead yet for some places.

      Local community is back! That’s what I’m seeing in the dating scene as well. Online dating is so hopeless, going to physical events to meet people with mutual interests is the way to go.
