      These days its very popular to work for emotional reasons. Everyone wants to have a "meaningful" job. And employers have drunk that coolaide way too hard. So these days employers want their employees for whom flipping burgers is a calling.
      There are also various studies that prove employees who feel their work is meaningful are willing to accept an 18% lower salary on average, so thats definitely a heavy factor in the current climate.
      Personally, i don't give a shit whether my job means something. Pay me well, and i'll devote my soul to the company. Unfortunately, very few industries want that kind of employee these days. Sales/marketing is one of the few that loves greedy employees though.

      Birki gts Many people nowadays live in a fantasy world of sorts as far as getting a job goes. We have all heard the following before:
      “You can be anything you want!”
      “Your career should be something you love!”
      “Work hard enough, and all your dreams will come true!”
      As cynical as it may seem, life is not so idyllic; for example, you most likely won’t be able to make a full living doing art of any sort; banking on that is a gamble at best, as the market is and always will be flooded with hundreds of other artists just as good as you, if not better. On the other hand, there are many career fields which are always looking for new workers, many of which require no college degree at all (some official certification is often required, but this is almost never more than a tenth of the cost of a bachelors degree). They’re not always the most aesthetic jobs, but they tend to pay pretty nicely, which is much better than scrambling to make ends meet because “guitar is your calling” or some crap like that.
      TL:DR Passion is nice, but only opportunity will pay your bills.

Annoyingly back when my parents were my age there used to be quite a lot of factories quite close to where we live now. There's like 2-3 just down the road from my house all been converted into flats. So to get a job now the only feasible place is a supermarket though would take ages to save up for a car and I don't fancy working in a shop either.

    • @jaebby9695
      @jaebby9695 5 років тому +384

      James Bramnick faking isn’t always the best course of action. What you SHOULD do is really think about your skills and sell them for example, you know how to work a computer? “Proficient in multiple computer programs” if you don’t have job experience then you take from other things you’ve done. Volunteering or interning looks amazing and will give you experience. Most jobs suck, but if you’re trying to get your foot in the door the best thing to do is get in to a company and work your way up. Easiest way to get a job is to put in your application online, wait a day or two then walk into the business and ask to speak to the hiring manager. Once you’ve got the hiring manager in front of you, say you want to check on the status of your application and go from there. More times than not they will schedule a time for you to come in for an interview. Trust me, i was a hiring manager for 3+ years. Good luck on the job hunt!

    • @jaebby9695
      @jaebby9695 5 років тому +183

      James Bramnick lastly to answer your question about resumes, go online and google “resume template” choose one that emphasizes your skills rather than work experience. If you have a specific place you want to work like say a call center look up the job requirements and list your skills pertaining to the job, “excellent conversational skills” “basic computer skills” “problem solving” “deescalating angry customers” “positive attitude” these are all universally good skills that employers want to see in a employee

      @@red2theelectricboogaloo961 Some people have parents which mean they never work in their life, worlds unfair. Just because it sucks doesn't mean you roll over and whine that it's not happening.
      But you can make those connections, but rarely force them. Just be opportunistic, let people know you are looking for work/experience.
      Get even a slight reference from a mate for helping their work. Don't lie, but embellish a little. But the reality is that only gets you to the talking phase, the rest is all self-work and confidence. My tip is experience hopping, get whatever you can at first, even if its a terrible job, cash in hand. It just shows you are able to work, which is suprisingly not as often for people as you would think. Also have the basics, drivers licence, resume, linked in if you are looking at the business world. Clean social media, and an explanation of what you've done, why you are doing what you are doing, and what you want. Have talkable hobbies and interests, and most importantly, a modicum of intelligence and confidence, even if its faked.
      All in all, just look put together and approachable, gets you far. And also, look for jobs in odd places, I'm sure your local community would have a job seeking facebook page. Every seek ad probably gets 100's of cookie cutter responses, call/contact directly when possible. Show them you have some balls, and go in like you know you have the job already.

Check out "Money vs. Currency" by Mike Maloney and his hidden secrets of money website. It will teach you the federal reserve system along with central banking. THAT is the cause of all of our economic problems: Central banks and central banking along with fractional reserve banking. People don't understand how banking works.

    This is so ridiculously true. I recall at age 16 was the first time I was permitted to legally work, so enthusiastically I went to apply with local stores and business for a job over the summer. I'd get stuff like "So do you have any previous experience?" (Despite me having made it clear I'm 16 and it was the first time I could work). Or a "Just hand us your CV and we'll get back with you" (Which naturally they never did). Tried again the year after, got the same shit of "you need experience first" because working as a cashier or handling products or cleaning in a store apparently needs soooo much experience. Kept getting the same pointless answers, so eventually I just gave up and never worked a job as a student.
