that's why you should become the boss and hire people, make business because that is what i think the market needs, people who offers jobs but nobody wants to be a leader because don't have funds, are too close minded, or don't have the intiative or leaderships skills, and only greddy abusive mfkers end upt aiming for that because there will be always desesperate people who want to just follow the lead of being told what to do and win money by doing repetitives jobs

During my senior year of undergrad a friend and I were looking at jobs on LinkedIn and we saw a company looking to hire undergraduate interns, however the job description asked for 5 years of experience in the field. He called the company asking if this was a mistake and it wasn't. This was in 2023.
...so...they expect someone to spend 5 years in the field to...decide if they want to be in it, then go and start a degree in that field. Do they think they are hiring elves instead of humans?
If it's software development, the expectation may be that you have been doing it since high school and have some projects to show for it, etc. It's still ridiculous.

It's just the nature of the current market where training for jobs have now been completely abandoned because employees are switching between companies more than their underwear.
For some reason companies want to pretend that they "can't find people" one of the methods is floating the market or whatever with fake job vacancies. they either just don't respond to the applications or they will give one of the reasons of the endless lists of requirements that you didn't qualify. Now why do they do this? To say to their employees that are overworked because they can't find enough staff. probably also to beg the government to subsidize them to find people or something.

One of the players in a dnd game I run is a programmer, business stuff the most part. He was hired onto a project to do some sort of data base program, apparently it took around 14 months to finish, and another three to distribute it to buyers. So, 20 months, give or take a few weeks. Six months later he found a firm that required three years experience with the program that he had helped to develop. As he pointed out... as a developer of the program, he wouldn't be eligible for hire because even he wasn't 'experienced enough'' with the system that he helped develop. Sometimes it's HR just being complete clowns and putting a number that 'sounds good' rather than any practical aspect

1980-2010. My grandfather worked at ace hardware out of high school, then became a millwright and within two years he got promoted to supervisor of nuclear reactor number 2 at three mile island. 7 years after that he was promoted as director of nuclear safety and transferred to peach bottom. He knew nobody in these companies, he just spoke well and learned all he could at his job. He was always only source of income in a house of 4, my grandmother never worked and she raised my mom and uncle. He was able to buy a house and paid it off it 15 years, had 2 boats, a corvette, motorcycle, truck and a jeep. Never once worried about money. He retired at 60 ( now 71 ) and lives in Florida. Today just to be even considered for a supervisor position at any power plant you need at least a bachelors in nuclear physics and 15 years experience.
That's an awesome story and it really should still be that way today. The requirements just to get one's foot in the door these days really do seem like they're getting ridiculous

I love how this push for experience comes from companies literally not wanting to dedicate any amount of time and resources into training people. It’s just “oh, you already know how to do everything? Good, here is 40 pages of shit you have to do”
When there is a recession and there are a lot fewer jobs it makes sense to only rehire the same people that already did the job before rather then hiring and training new people. However if you select candidates like that if the economy grows even a little or if time passes and those people moved on to other jobs. That group of candidates is going to shrink really really quickly. They would in all reason have to go back to considering hiring people and training them themselves but for some reason they won't do that and maintain the same mindset and then complain finding "the right" people is too hard. I wonder why that is but it cannot be good and it seems like a recipe or indication of a total system collapse. It could be that because of excessive taxes and regulations they can only afford to hire people that can "hit the ground running" despite them becoming more and more rare if you can't snatch them away from a competitor. Or they simply lie that they are hiring to give an impression of economic growth when there isn't.
I joined the Marines, mostly for college money. I went to Iraq and Afghanistan. After I finally got a college degree in accounting, to be safe. I often times regret spending my 20s sacrificing my time for pain. I don’t think it was worth it for the college money. Sorry I just wanted to vent to no one in particular.
I joined the Air Force for similar reasons. Can only imagine how rough that must be. I'm finishing up a BS in Biology and BA in Psychology soon and so far I've only heard back from one of the 30+ applications I sent in. I put in a request to see if VR&E could help me get more schooling to be better a qualified applicant or help me get a job. I told them the only job that got back to me was focused on hard manual labor and would mess up my back more than it already is due to a service connected disability I have and they didn't care and said I should've followed up with the job that would definitely destroy my back more than it already has been. And they rejected me request to aid in more schooling AND any aid to help me get a job. Lol Gotta love it.
Problem with war is just because it, or your part in it ends on a paper doesn't mean that it ends in the mind. But yeah, kinda get it, options basically were "get fucked this way" or "get fucked in another way".
If the requirements are ridiculous, it's likely because they already have someone in mind and need to make it seem fair. "It looks like there are no decent candidates. I guess well have to settle for the son of that higher-up."
Oh boy! I love being born at a time where having a degree actually would set you up for steady employment so you get told that by every adult you've ever known all throughout your childhood only to reach college right as those degrees became virtually worthless 😃
LOL!!! This is brilliant. I am 61 and became self-employed because, after I reached the age of 50, employers do not even bother to reply to my job applications. I am invisible and do not even receive rejection letters.
Yeah, that was still before you "had" to go to college to live comfortably. I'd argue that was really at its peak in the baby boomer generations. Placing less importance on flashy degrees could be a good thing, but now they're replacing that with "You need to be veteran in this field to even consider getting this entry-level job." A big problem with most modern business; they don't know/care about raising up and nurturing a newer workforce. Hell, they care about the long-term health of their own industry. A lot of mangers/higher-ups will later switch to a nice high-level role in something completely different that they can run into the ground.

Good news for all freshmen and high schoolers, the job market is so unstable that god only knows what it will look like when you graduate, so maybe that degree will mean something!
There's no point anymore. Growing up I've been told that a college education is the key to success, but all my friends that graduated aren't making any more money than I am. And I don't have student loans.
I once caught up with a HS friend who dropped out in junior year. He makes 70 grand in oil fields. And he was a pot head. I have never done drugs have 2 degrees and phd level experience and can't get employment. I want to call up my phone principal and ask for a refund.
Yeah out of my friends we have one making 80k doing HVAC stuff, pretty much the same income as one of the software engineers, and the other two of us are struggling to even get a job because experience is required.
It still is, the data bears that out over and over year after year. The two dudes above me have hit their market cap on income, whereas for my field that’s the starting line. Breaking in is getting more and more difficult, that much is certain, but forgoing education is not the solution to your problems here.
People with college degrees still overwhelmingly earn more money throughout their career than people without degrees, and the amount of jobs that don’t require a degree keep shrinking.

Things have changed, a lot. In my country, today there are more people with a PhD then there were high school graduates a couple of generations ago. Having a bachelors degree is as special as having a drivers license.
The more left-wing a state or country, the cheaper the college education. It's temporary and used to remove non lefties from the faculties. Once that's established the fees come in.
For an entry level position that basically was a secretary for a small LLC, the employer/CEO said he wanted that person to have 10 years of experience. Not only did they not advertise that in the job description or tell me that in the first interview, but they waited to tell me that 2 months later when I finally was going to get the second interview. The position paid 55K. Anyone that works in anything for 10 years would be considered a professional to me, so why would ANY professional decide to work for lower pay? I would think that you’d be able to demand a higher salary than that. Oh, and he didn’t select me because I used his first name. Yeah. THAT’S what eliminated me
The best part is that they don’t hire you, then they hire some 17 year old for minimum wage, then that kid breaks a million dollar machine. When they could’ve just hired you.
i showed up to an interview, things seemed to go well and i was pretty sure i'd get it. two weeks later and they still never bothered to tell me either way. get another job, do it for about a month, talk to me boss and ask that if thing change please tell me ahead of time so i can make arrangements. get laid off late that night (after 11pm). about 3 months later they beg me to come back. told them to FO.
The reality is even beyond this: in 1950, most college graduates probably would have been recruited before they graduated, or at least would be talking to someone who they already had a lead or contact with.
I’m applying for grad schools rn, because options are kinda limited with a PoliSci degree. I looked into schools that offer MBA programs for people who just completed their UG degree. One of the requirements is two years of professional full time experience to get into their MBA program. Question: how the f*ck can I immediately move onto MBA if I needed two years of professional experience, which I couldn’t have gotten without a UG??!!!
The second applicant wasn't great. Jokes aside: Asking for the job makes you sound desperate for the JOB when you SHOULD be desperate for your LIFE.

Some still want "medical records" for a certain compliance.

@@planescaped it's both actually, and other almost worse reasons, such as they do actually need competent people but are just shit at getting them cause of how they're structured
It's just the nature of the current market where training for jobs have now been completely abandoned because employees are switching between companies more than their underwear.
For some reason companies want to pretend that they "can't find people" one of the methods is floating the market or whatever with fake job vacancies. they either just don't respond to the applications or they will give one of the reasons of the endless lists of requirements that you didn't qualify. Now why do they do this? To say to their employees that are overworked because they can't find enough staff. probably also to beg the government to subsidize them to find people or something.
I love the impactful ending of this skit where it is revealed that the same man hired in the 50's (you can tell since they're wearing the same shirt) goes into a PTSD induced episode due to his mind deteriorating from old age and tragically guns down a talented young man with a bright future ahead of him carrying thing.

Entry level jobs now require time paradoxes for them to even consider looking at your resume and you’ll still get ghosted IF you get an interview.
30+ job applications in so far this past half year and I've only had one position reach back to me... a hard manual labor focused position that doesn't require a degree. 😂 I asked the VA to help me get a job and they just said I should follow up with that spot... but I told them I already have a service-connected disability for chronic back pain and they didn't care. 😂 Gotta love it.

One of the players in a dnd game I run is a programmer, business stuff the most part. He was hired onto a project to do some sort of data base program, apparently it took around 14 months to finish, and another three to distribute it to buyers. So, 20 months, give or take a few weeks.
Six months later he found a firm that required three years experience with the program that he had helped to develop. As he pointed out... as a developer of the program, he wouldn't be eligible for hire because even he wasn't 'experienced enough'' with the system that he helped develop. Sometimes it's HR just being complete clowns and putting a number that 'sounds good' rather than any practical aspect
14 months plus 3 months isn't 20 months. If you and your friend took math classes together, I can see why they were not hired.

1980-2010. My grandfather worked at ace hardware out of high school, then became a millwright and within two years he got promoted to supervisor of nuclear reactor number 2 at three mile island. 7 years after that he was promoted as director of nuclear safety and transferred to peach bottom. He knew nobody in these companies, he just spoke well and learned all he could at his job.
He was always only source of income in a house of 4, my grandmother never worked and she raised my mom and uncle. He was able to buy a house and paid it off it 15 years, had 2 boats, a corvette, motorcycle, truck and a jeep. Never once worried about money.
He retired at 60 ( now 71 ) and lives in Florida.
Today just to be even considered for a supervisor position at any power plant you need at least a bachelors in nuclear physics and 15 years experience.
That's an awesome story and it really should still be that way today.
The requirements just to get one's foot in the door these days really do seem like they're getting ridiculous
Yeah my grandfather told me 'i liked math till they added the letters'
He was an auditor for a global company. He got the job because he showed up and asked around and the chemist department was like, you can't do chemistry do you want to start in auditing

At my job I asked for a raise and they said I they could only give me a raise if I had a college degree, I then said “but I do have a degree it’s in management.” And then they said oh never mind we can’t give you a raise.
And you could still find a steady, well-paying career in the 1950s without attending college.
you can find that now as well. they're called trades, they're always needed, and they pay well.

Had to look up tuition in 1950 at a decent school like the University of Minnesota. It was $65/yr and adjusted for inflation it's under $900/year. At an Ivy League school like Penn, it was the equivalent of $9,000/year. Pretty crazy.
I'm from the UK and they used to pay you to go to university
My mom worked part time each summer and it covered tuition, room and board, and spending money for the whole academic term. It was 14 a credit hour when she went, it was 500 when I went there 30 years later... and she still told me to work my way through since she was able...

I love how this push for experience comes from companies literally not wanting to dedicate any amount of time and resources into training people. It’s just “oh, you already know how to do everything? Good, here is 40 pages of shit you have to do”
When there is a recession and there are a lot fewer jobs it makes sense to only rehire the same people that already did the job before rather then hiring and training new people. However if you select candidates like that if the economy grows even a little or if time passes and those people moved on to other jobs. That group of candidates is going to shrink really really quickly. They would in all reason have to go back to considering hiring people and training them themselves but for some reason they won't do that and maintain the same mindset and then complain finding "the right" people is too hard. I wonder why that is but it cannot be good and it seems like a recipe or indication of a total system collapse. It could be that because of excessive taxes and regulations they can only afford to hire people that can "hit the ground running" despite them becoming more and more rare if you can't snatch them away from a competitor. Or they simply lie that they are hiring to give an impression of economic growth when there isn't.

I told them the only job that got back to me was focused on hard manual labor and would mess up my back more than it already is due to a service connected disability I have and they didn't care and said I should've followed up with the job that would definitely destroy my back more than it already has been.

Placing less importance on flashy degrees could be a good thing, but now they're replacing that with "You need to be veteran in this field to even consider getting this entry-level job."
