I’m from asia and I’m relatively young (22) and it’s literally fucking impossible to get a job. I’ve been trying everything and I don’t understand why it’s extremely difficult to land a no-skill minimum-wage job. It’s fucking ridiculous and it’s tiring me out I’m in a terrible financial situation right now. I live with my mother and we’re struggling to scrape by now, I live off noodles and pasta (I’ve lost about 5kg just this month) so anyway to make some money would be great. So Bros, I ask you, how do I get a job, or better yet, how do I make money as a broke, skillness loser such as myself? Because I am flat-ass BROKE
imo it’s all stochastic - get a pretty looking resume with good fluff and acceptable content (lying permissible but if you’re like me it can get stressful to remember and keep tabs on so this depends on your personality), and then go on LinkedIn and search your city and click through as many easy apply listings as you can, it’s very easy to apply for a hundred jobs in a half an hour sitting this way. just do this a few times a week and after you have a couple thousand applications in, the odds start stacking up
One more thing to add. Make sure you change your resume to claim that you are a LOCAL of whatever city you’re applying to. The porks are a picky lot and generally have a “locals only” policy. I faced a good amount of discrimination (and still do) because I am stuck in a rural town in Ohio and apparently rich people can’t understand “why anyone would choose to live there, that’s weird!” (Not like I have a choice, some of us are poor.)
I hate using the term and I hate that it’s a thing, but there is no shame in embracing any nepotism you can get your hands on. The rich have way more class solidarity than the working class and will gladly hire a fellow nepo baby by “networking”, but still lie that you’re a master at whatever you’re applying to.
