The real joke here is that he claims tuition only costs $10k.
Canada man, 6k a year here
Tuition is around 10k a year. All other living expenses associated with the university bring that up to about 26k a year give or take.
a semester is $6,400 where I'm at
6k for the whole year but that’s because I’m poor😅

@@shellbeebo It was probably because management had someone they already wanted to hire but because of HR/some rules or regulations or something, they had to open the position to the public. The 5 years experience was so they could tell anyone 'no' without having to deal with discrimination laws

when society creates a paradox and completely ignores it
Catch 22, you need experience for work but can't get get it because you never worked.
Neurofied Yamato that's why you gotta be lucky enough to have a relative running some sort of business
its not ignored, its intentional. I mean, the worker bees ignore it because reality is harsh, but not the ppl who create the situation.
They do it so you're infinitely in debt. That way the rich continually siphon money from us.
@@nickmagrick7702 Exactly.
The pure defeat in his voice every time he says "Oh o.k. that makes sense" cuts deep, man.
My last email from HR: "we are not 100% sure why you want to join the company"
Making money doesn't make any sense right????
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.
@@Erowens98 so basically Brave New World mindset in the making
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.
If you can’t explain why you want more than just money, probably the only job you will get is in sales. It also suggests you are stupid if you can’t do 2 seconds of preparation to say something like “I think I’m a good fit for this role and I like the work.” You wouldn’t tell a girlfriend you were just with her for sex would you?
So people are just expected to lie? That's stupid. Most people work necause they have to. Not everyone gets to be what they want to be.
This video sums up life. It's really fucking sad
ikr? And even if you aren't smart and have to resort to more physically demanding jobs, there's no banking on it giving you enough income to live off of. God, I wish I lived in the 50s - 70s
Life must have been simpler back then.
Yeah cuz ppl actually had a work ethic back then jk
There were a few billion less people on this planet 50 years ago, so jobs were given out like candy and shit was cheap. Today, supply of human bodies outweighs demand and everything's expensive. We're disposable, there is zero incentive for an employer to give 2 shits about employees because there are hundreds of applicants trying to get your job.
Things are more expensive now because of inflation.
Forgot about "Sorry, we only accept online applications."
fuck this is so annoying what happen to job applications everytime online online online omgfg
W
It's true because then it's easier to ignore applications.
Last time I filled out a real application and handed it to a manager was in the 90s.
Right, and that's code for "uhhh fill out this application, and then throw it in that trash can over there."
the most unrealistic part of his was that he was actually able to get an interview
Yeah. Most interviews are from telephones, but good fucking luck I guess.
As someone who just graduated and is applying for jobs, this hurts me on a spiritual level.

You missed the part when someone from a previous generation reminisces about how they got their first career by just walking in and asking the manager for a job.
I did that for my first job and that was like 3 years ago. Decent place, average pay it was overall a fine employer for a while.
@@penguinrevolution9041 You're lucky!
My 1st job lasted only for a day. I was at a cakery, but there were only 2 collegues with me at the time & one of them is very underqualified, but allowed to work there, because she's old. They wanted someone who's fast & skillful right off the bat, which wasn't me, so I was sent home. I've got 25.5$s for that (inflation is high tho...it was a month ago, now that money's worth 23.5USD)

In order to join this entry-level job you need to have worked in 3 other supervisor jobs.
60 years experience in college
The sad truth is the best way to get a job is to know someone. Even if you're under-qualified if you have a friend put in the good word for you that will go further than being the most qualified.
What if your friends are all in the same position and have been crying with you about it for two years, I left school two years ago and this is my life now. Kill me.
Or join the union
Did you try applying to a job similarly to that one in another country?
Internships and temp jobs. Do it! Search for Temp agencies and they will get you a temporary job of a year.
shitty realization when you have no social skills or references other than immediate family and other employers.
And this is why I have a bachelors in biology yet I work in a kitchen.
that remind me of his "how college is like" video. He brings up the question of how do you know what kinda job you would enjoy without ever having that job. To answer this he put up a slider with fun on one side and making a lot of money on the other side and said to adjust accordingly.
And this is what I don't like about academia.
That damp fungal growth in the pantry isn't gonna analyze itself
Go get a master, big boy!
I got a degree in Graphic Design and now I clean rental cars
i just graduated college and this spoke to me on a spiritual level
This hit hard especially being a college student and someone in their 20s trying to figure out what you want to do in life.
Honestly, same and it's frustrating.
_"oh okay, that makes sense..."_
And you'll need a car to drive to your job, but you'll need a job to buy your car :) so if you're like me, and have parents that don't understand that you're fucked without their help, then well, you're fucked :D
yeah were all in the same boat,not to mention rent is expesenive. so the 30 year old who lives with their parents will be more common then usual
sell drugs.
Fun fact, before WW1 people used to live with their parents till their 30s all the time. It is only since about 1950s that living on your own at 20 something was viewed as "normal"
***** nah, my dad is a chiropractor and makes well over a 100 thousand a year, and my mom makes some good money too as a teacher.
I get that like "well no mom I can't get a job because I have no way to get there" I just get "well I used to have to cycle to work" i'm just like fml. 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.
I interviewed with Bayer and they wanted someone with minimum 8 years of experience using technology invented 4 years ago. I laughed at the interviewer and left.
They actually called me back for a second interview and I told them I obviously wasn't interested.
Least you went out on your own terms.
epic
That might have been a test
Really? You throw away a job at the biggest pharmaceutical company of the world just because the HR guy was not as competent as you in the technology you were asked to be expert in?
I mean, sometimes is frustrating to deal with uninfirmed HR guys. But fuck it! Once you get the job, who cares.
Sorry, but I struggle to believe that you turned down such a position, *they called you back* (as if Bayer didn't have thousands of new applicants every day) and *you* turned down again.
Bayer is known in my country as very elitist company who hires people from specific niche category. They like to ignore people from technical universities completely too.
Really low reputation among my field at least. Im glad I have other options.
That’s actually my life in a nutshell

shriram ram I don’t know yet let’s find out
Lol "entry level position" always makes me chuckle. I also enjoy providing a detailed CV and then being asked to fill the exact same information into a crudely drawn spreadsheet of boxes.
As a friend of mine put it "'Entry Level' is just a cleaned up way of saying 'We're going to lie to you and tell you you have a chance at getting to our pay level while we repeatedly enter you against your will via your paycheck, your schedule, your sense of self worth and your will to live'"
They put entry level so that they won't have to pay you as much not because it's actually entry level work
The fact the this video is 6 years old, and the fact that it's even worse today, is depressing.
4 years later
*over $50,000 in debt*
*degree doesn't even make getting jobs easier because as a young adult you were overwhelmed to get your shit togeather so you agree to loans you wont be able to pay off for 30 years or longer and realize a kid at mcdonalds has more savings then you because he decided to just keep working instead of school*
Then: Everyone is on a level playing field, has reasonable income.
Later: Someone gets a loan, goes to university, get ahead of the game. Makes all of the money.
Now: Everyone has a degree, level playing field again - except everyone is poor as well.
I opted to get the degree and work 2 full time jobs. It is hard, but knowing that ill be able to pay off my student loans when I graduate and have saving makes it worth it
@@ssimms8995 how the fuck do you work 16 hours a day and at the same time get a degree? Am I misunderstanding something?
@@rikai5344 It’s pretty easy actually. Just sell your soul, and give up your social life.

@@several. i suppose. but you know where the frustration comes from, right? for some people it's just easier to get a job because they have loads of friends who can get a hold of their parents and "hook them up" while others who haven't for one reason or another decided to make loads of friends have to try and "pick up the pieces" so to speak?
@@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.
I'm starting to get nervous about finding a job just looking at the comments...
At first it's scary, like a watchdog on your way, but everything is under control, the dog is not aggressive and he might be your friend
It's the rat race and if you read some of these comments, people will ensure the competition is unfair, egotistical, and fierce.
@@rightblank10 Because competition is unfair, egotistical, and fierce.

Yep, I had a little brother who tried to apply for a Target and they told him he needed experience. My dad was baffled and asked, "Experience? To do what? Stack boxes and count money? Get your heads out of asses!"
For real! It’s funny and sad at the same time.
Im going to tell you something that’ll help you stand out significantly more than the other candidates: know someone you know at the company, even just as friendly acquaintances. As long as you have the minimal skills that you can market well on your resume and to the employer, you have a good chance of getting in with a good word from that same acquaintance.
Not sure that helps selling steak knives though
turtlemaster 5000 My advice is for ppl who are getting into real jobs, not pyramid schemes where anyone who can breathe can get in.
And that's literally how dumb the world is, the end.
USA* not the world. In the majority of other first world countries, it's actually not as retarded.

It's funny how earlier generations had it easier both in terms of findings a job and dating. Today, it is the total opposite. Finding a job and life partner is a constant struggle. Not mentioning inflation problems, property prices, increasing ideological divide, etc.
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.

People who are sociopaths i guess. Fake it till you make it.

That was me...three years ago.
I wouldnt even get invited to interviews.
Now I just fake my resume, my experiences, qualifiactions, everything. I lie on every interview and pretend to have more experience and knowledge than I actually have. I am holding two managerial level jobs at two seperate corporations. Go figure.
>Pretend to have more experience and knowledge than I actually have
Hmm, yes. The floor here is made of floor.
How do you fake that stuff? I'm being serious. I'm a teenager so I don't know anything about resumes.
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!
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
@@jaebby9695 Thank you so much! Best regardes to you.
"this job requires 5 years of experience"

aint that the fuckin truth though
Entry for novice workers that only worked for 5 years.
Medium level for average people to worked at least for 20 years.
Senior level for good people who wasted 40 years on a factory and got health issuies in the proccess.

@@hammer12482 i just got one yesterday, from ~6months as well lol. if i didn't get one myself i wouldn't believe you:D i agreed to the offer because they called me right as i applied to some job. i thought it is the job and i realised only at the interview that it isn't this one lol
I’ve been dealing with this lately, but for INTERNSHIPS, not even full-time positions. I don’t have enough “leadership and analytical” experience. Which I’m sure every 20 year old has in spades. Good luck out there y’all! God bless
That's ridiculous. Maybe apply to more big name companies because sometimes they randomly take you even if you're not qualified, the internship makes you qualified while you get paid, and you can hopefully get a return offer.
And that's why you sell weed.
Amen
Where are Heisenberg and Pinkman when we need them?
+Black-Reaper I wouldn't mind selling meth
+Castro ARE YOU INSANE.????? weed is by far the easiest drug to get. Acid is much harder to find and finding quality acid is even harder.
Castro This is true. Just lost my only dealer that was refered by my friend, who's gone aswell. I'm fucked.
I walked in a KFC dressed as Colonel Sanders and I was automatically promoted to manager.
Cooper Makowski I can believe that.

I want to believe.
Unrealistic. Nowdays you can’t even get into uni they would tell you that you need higher gpa first
position open
applicants need to be less than 20 years old have no kids not plan to ever have kids not plan to ever have days off and have at least 10 years of work experience in this system that has existed for 3 years
salary: take whatever the lowest pay is we can get away with and half that because we found some loophole
Meanwhile in Sweden - college students get paid to study
Damn, the american education system bums me out.
Skååål!
BenRangel lucky
The more I keep hearing about Sweden, the more I want to move there lol.
its like that pretty much anywere in europe

No, what is better is after you get the degree and STILL can't find a job and need to get certs to show that you have knowledge in the areas they are looking for. And you need to have someone already working for the company to refer you.
Oh boy you hit the mark there. A bitch is when you look for unpaid expierence but it either lasts so long that you'll be living in a box by the end or it doesn't last long enough that it's practically worthless.
Getting an internship is as hard as getting a job now. It seems like getting a job is 100% luck (or nepotism or bribery).
Right? I have a freaking math degree, but if I want to write and edit math content, I apparently need to bend over backwards to get more schooling. As if I don't already know how to edit and create math content, as if I haven't been a TA and a tutor in math for years, as if I've never ever created math documents in my life and helped edit math documents.
Like, just read my resume. It says I've actually done all this. Why do I need to go back to school?
The worst is when agencies will refuse to help find you work if you don't know what you want to do... which sucks when you're crawling out of a pit of depression and enjoy nothing anyway
1:48 For those who miss that: [the silent, internalized fury of one thousand suns] :DDD
I'm 16 and applied for like 9 jobs. Never even got an email for an interview.
I look 12 at 17 and just tell me
I'm 18 and got turned down from a gas station for not looking old enough to sell cigarettes and alcohol to people.
+Walnut Spice maybe your just a qutie :)
James Crock whot
Yes, 9 places, nice... Tell me when you reach 30.
Perfect, except you forgot the part where people who have jobs call you lazy. Other than that, I just watched my life in 2 minutes. Great Job!
+Infinite Gamer +1 for the name and avatar xD
Father be like:
Just call them a sheep and walk. Boom! Now they'll be thinking about that while they're stocking products on shelves or serving food for no tips.
how are you not homeless?!
you forgot that recent graduates also requires 3-5 years of experience for get into a job :)
All my friends get jobs because of their parents who know someone you know... I'm so jealous because they just get a job from nowhere because they know somebody
I always had that problem too.... I don't know anyone and my parents don't either... still found a lot of success though. Are you stuck looking for a new job?
@@Unknownbrianzaste I kinda want a summer job, but I'm fine without one. At my age (15) you can get a summer job pretty much only if you know people. I guess it's possible but really rare otherwise.
"how am i supposed to pay for that?" LOL i died. xD The cruel reality
easy, don't be white
This is exactly why my life is horrible
I thought it was because you can't find your spoon.
Lemming and that too
+iCantFindMySpoon no only that
You do have community college, ROTC the GI bill, student loans and scholarships available. On top of this you could intern to get experience.
What? This isn't 1946, Jack.
I had an argument about college tuition and the other guy legit said if you can't pay for college then go to a trade school. So if you ever wanted to become a doctor (which already takes a good chunk of your life and potentially your life savings) you first have to become a mechanic and work who knows how long to pay for it. Great system we have here folks.
Or just take out student loans...this is why student loans exist.
Wth? This video came into my recommendation just as i am 3 months into looking for work after i got my professional license and degree, this is 100 percent accurate
Being a middle class American in a nutshell
There is no middle class anymore and that's because the .00000001% have been waging war against them for the past 40 plus years. Don't believe me, watch "Money as Debt" along with "The Creature From Jekyll Island."
+Average Joesson starving

That last line of "Rome used salt like money" completely makes your credibility worthless.
I disagree. The fact that Rome used salt as a form of currency or money proves the point that it is only a means of exchange. Why do you think crypto currencies like Bitcoin, litecoin, dogcoin, public banking are starting to pop up?! Humanity needs to redefine what true money really is. 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 was so brutally honest that I Liked this video
This'll be me in a couple years after graduating nursing school and jobs telling me "wow a bachelor's degree cool, but you had college during covid so you didn't take clinicals so yeah bye no experience"
Painfully explained more than casually explained
So inaccurate, they wouldn't tell you "Get a job," they would tell you "Get a loan." :P
+yukito098 And how will he pay back that loan? same thing.
exactly, how will he pay back the loan?
nachos uuhhh i dunno, get a jawb?

10,000 a year? what decade do you live in?
Wyoming. I live in the decade wyoming, and it costs about 10,000 a year.
What, is it even MORE expensive now?
PaulMag average is 15,000 a year.
Yingdi Han Christ!
Wauw. And here WE get paid for going to a higher education in EU.
Fuck USA xD
Damn I didn't even get a part-time job as a student, guess I'll be unemployed after college
Bro, I had 3 interesting student jobs, and I am still struggling finding a full-time position after my graduation....
Friends or family. That’s really the most common way people get their first job.
ME: "Hello, I would like a job please."
JOB: "You'll have to check online on our main webpage sir."
I hate my life.
I heard that in the magical land of Europe, they have this thing called "free college education" or something like that
Free college won't work in America. Sorry.
LethalFacepalm It's a myth
Europe is a continent, not a country, and in most European nations it's called university.
LethalFacepalm it's not free when other people have to pay for it

I loved that fact that the college name was "Seriously explained university"
quite opposite to casually explained 😂😂
Being currently unemployed myself, this is depressingly accurate.

Fr though. I’ve been trying to get a job and it’s ridiculous how many “entry level” jobs require a ton of experience. I have a college degree and graduated summa cum laude, and I’m still waiting to be called in for an interview
