It's funny how companies are "scrambling" to fill the 6 million jobs in the USA in 2018 (more jobs than people unemployed).
Yet applicants are still required to a have 2 years experience in the field and a 4 year degree for "entry level" jobs, that only really require a 6 month certification and pay less than 40k a year with no benefits...
@@robotinthebrain As a business owner, I'd eat your donuts and forget about you in an instant if you aren't qualified. It's about your qualifications, not gimmicks.
That's the real issue.
I saw an ad the other day calling for a bachelor's degree for a 16 an hour job and this is New York.
They are creating “more jobs” to make their quota for government funding. That means more “part time”, and less “Full Time”.
@@codypolar6593 what a moron...qualifications are worthless......everybody knows nowadays that a college education (and an expensive one) is a scam in many fields..but technical...it is all about skills and experience...and experience is the single most important factor
Job hunting is becoming so difficult that you have to bribe hiring manager with donuts so that you land a job or an interview, so sad smh😔
No. The obvious question should be why do employers continue to use applicant tracking software if that software makes so many blunders? Sounds to me like those employers don't really want to go through the bother of hiring the best people. Just good enough people.
This. All this.
Applicant tracking software has sent me rejection emails on Christmas Eve and Christmas day. It seems holding off rejections wasn't written into the software specs.
well because the hr ppl are too lazy to use any other options. you know hr are normally not consisted of the most driven ppl right
The job board, Indeed, shows you which qualifications you are locking. It is probably the same thing employers use.
I hear this often, but anecdotally, it's always case-by-case. In the past, I've spent about as much time networking as applying online. Roughly 50/50. I've scored four professional jobs by applying online and one by networking. I know how it's supposed to work in theory; I've heard things like this from my parents since childhood. It's just not my experience. I've had dozens upon dozens of conversations like she describes, and people are usually friendly and everything, but then I hear some mix of the following: "If we have any positions, they would be posted online. Check the website." "You're doing all the right things; something should pop up soon." "I've got your info; I'll be sure to share it." "I'll let you know if I hear anything."
That is right. I did the same thing when someone reached out to me.
I'm having the same experience right now. It's not as easy as she describes
I'm a 52 year old firefighter who is looking for a new career. I have a great resume, but cant get anyone to even see me, even though my resume shows I have the skills. Now when you apply online, they have you take the Wonscore test. I feel it's unfair to give a personality test and than say you didnt meet the job requirements before even meeting with me. It's very frustrating.
You gotta start your own company because of the youth obsessed society we are in
Good luck sir!
Welcome to the club. The plight if the older Americanr worker is dismal (& depressing) indeed
Even if you were an excellent exact match for the job they will still tell you that per the test you "were not a good match" for it. They will invent any fabrication to keep from hiring older workers.
@Jim Mone
- I agree with you. I have certain skills, and the other day after applying online, I got an email saying the employer wants me to take some tests. And ONE of those tests was a 72 (seventy-two) multiple choice personality evaluation!! I started, I really did, but got so frustrated I just exited out. :-O Some companies just make us jump through too many hoops. But don't misunderstand, I could see where a personality evaluation MIGHT be useful if I were going into (for example) psychology or something, but for basically simple office clerical work? It's frustrating.
To anyone watching, speed it up 1.5 playback 👍
THANK YOU!
You just broke the internet! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
You sir are the real MVP.
As a 51yo now looking for employment after a 12 year run in corporate America I get the proverbial "over qualified" which is code for too old now-a-days.
I go over the numbers that show why I don't expect to come close to my old salary as that was a 12 year income growth, and explain that I bring ideas from my experience that would help their company.
It's tough when the people interviewing tell me that the graduated college a year or two earlier, and this is their first job. They really don't understand what human resources is actually set up for. At this point I may just go in business for myself.
Good luck out there everyone
I'm tired of all of this. I'm exhausted and thoroughly bored with life on earth. Tired of spending my life revolving it around money and jobs. Too bad the only other options are homelessness or some primate life in the middle of the jungle.
Eh I’m in the jungle and I need a job too. Don’t give up. We got this
We are literally the same person
Juston, I totally understand how you’re feeling. I was studying business but totally lost motivation because of its superficiality. How is your spiritual life?-this is what really gives my life meaning. I’ve been going to an Eastern Orthodox Church, taking personality tests, and reading interesting texts (the Bible, saints, Dostoevsky, etc.), and have felt such a reconnection with my soul and passions. I hope you find a way to reconnect with your passion and meaning again :)
I needed this motivation my job search was beginning to send me into a depression
Same here 😑
job searching, AND working in america are dehumanizing experiences -_-
This "motivation" sent me into depression.
@@shadymercury europe is the same misery I can tell you. Thought unumployment benefits are higher here. But once over 1 year unemployed, it is very very difficult to get back in the job market unless you have friends somewhere
Yeah, me too.
I totally disagree. I've been a hiring manager for over 30 years and a job seeker several times. There is no one ideal way to get a job. And this idea of networking that every management "expert"pushes results in remarkably few jobs and is deeply unrealistic and not something people should keep promoting. It's the way some people want it to be and think it should be and they feel good about it. But I know that, personally, every time some barely known person or a friend of a friend wants to suck away large volumes of my time to talk all about them so they can "network", it's nothing but annoying. Networking wastes huge amounts of time. People are busy and have work to do and lives. Requiring and prescribing that suddenly the whole world has to connect and spend energy in this way fits some weird worldview they have but is unfair and counterproductive in many ways. And linked in is horrible and a trend I would like to see die down - An absurd requirement to find work. Why does anyone have to blast their life history in detail to the entire world to find work? And we waste way to much time with artificial relationships and meaningless interaction in personal social media as it is without it forced into the professional world in this manner. People should use multiple methods of job hunting and no one should rely on networking (Aka pestering) their way in to a job. Personally I think the old fashioned way of advertise a job to the public, people apply, the best candidates are selected, a screening process ensues and the job is filled is the best and most objective and efficient and least wasteful. Yes it doesn't have the touchy feely modern vibe of networking and fit the model of the same people who think
Every work space should be an open floor plan with plenty of ping pong tables and bean bags chairs etc. And it involves some hard work for hiring managers, but it's objective, efficient and equally open to all, doesn't involve how well someone can socialize or schmooze, doesn't waste loads of unrelated people's time and energy and patience, doesn't overtax friendships and professional relationships, doesn't rely on artificiality and an endless, desperate "conversation" with anyone remotely connected to the work you want, and is truly fair. These management "gurus" need to stop pushing this message of network network social media and network. It's a backward, nasty agenda and should be only a very small part of most people's job hunt.
so true and very well said. i wish hr professionals like you can influence their management to apply the old method to search for talents.
Excellent dissection and disposal of the "just do enjoyable networking" philosophy. It's high time the "experts" get called out on this soft and squishy non-strategy, especially if they are accepting checks for telling you to "go network", often the last option left in their failed approaches (Networking= Nothing Else Tends to be Working).
I'm a little surprised though that you recommend the opposite extreme-- namely, hunting and pecking through posted jobs that represent such a small percentage of what is out there and which all get armies of respondents that bury the well qualified or at least reasonably qualified and adaptable candidates. Someone with a rich background will find themselves forever a round peg trying to wedge themselves into all these square holes in the form of online postings. And forget about designing a position around you to maximize use of your talents.
I'd welcome hearing about in between approaches that are viable. I doubt that in your seasoned savvy 30 year experience you "Monstered" your way into every career step you took.
I find it funny you mock the video and yet their was no alternative given. Job postings do not work. I understand you do not want leeches wasting you time. The one thing that people including myself do is we may brush aside others who are asking for a moment of your time and spend how much time wasting it. Majority may be not worth your time but, that does not mean all of them are. The minority will create an impact that will make it worth while and change both lives.
Applying to a job online does not work anymore. The evidence of this is millions of people have given up finding a job and given up on society. The problem is people have to sneak their way in since the alternative is almost pointless. Please tell me your point. I hate the way things are setup now.
I almost started taking your position into account then I clicked "Read More" and saw the length and - no well formed argument is ever that long.
Networking is extremely uncomfortable for introverts like me, but I know sometimes it's necessary. I would much rather it be the way you stated.
Too bad the intersection of my skills, interests, and the market doesn't actually exist :(
Also, I personally find it horrendous that literally showing up at the door of the hiring manager with donuts only got him an interview with one out of four of them. So 3/4 of them _still_ ignored him.
Well duh. You still have to be a good candidate. Donuts are good, but they aren't magic.
@@codypolar6593
*_Donuts are magic spells._*
OriRune you’re not that special.
These hiring manager must be lying
Totally agree that "getting out there" and meeting people in your target industry is the best to get a job; it's certainly the way I found my present position.
Thanks for your feedback.
So you mean, you begged for a job. No thanks!
Temp jobs use to be a great way to network. Also it was a way to research job skills needed when handing in a resume. Temp jobs have disappeared.
I was a temp for an entire decade, and I liked it. I got to work in several different places, doing totally different assignments... and the BEST part was... if I hated the company or job, I was on to the next one. No permanent contracts or feeling "stuck". Now there ARE temp jobs around, but they don't seem to pay very well. I was shocked to see (the other day) an office job that paid * (eight) dollars per hour, yes, $8.00! Is that even legal? Obviously, I don't know what the minimum wage is anymore, but that seems insane.
"Millennial are in their 20's."
Me, a first year millennial watching this at 40 years old.
Is there an introvert version of this?
make a video :-) or an animation!
Depends - if you are technically inclined, it's not a deal breaker. If you are in a role that requires you to socialize, you may not make the cut.
No. In many cases, introverts must pretend that they are outwardly-social for the interview process and while working.
Don’t categorise yourself so quickly. We all must step forward at one time of our life and communicate
@@redsol3629 maybe it is the question that no matter what job, interview process requires extrovert quality (even if you apply for eg. warehouse job) that has almost no relation to job itself
The cup cake idea is a good one for junior roles where initiative will be seen as equally important to skills. You will get a better respone but for more senior roles it will still come down to skills and industry fit.
It is simply NOT TRUE. The truth, rather, is that today, multiple strategies are necessary. As someone who has gotten advertised jobs, I can say...no. She isn't giving the full story.
ruth sternberg I’d love to hear your elaboration on what the full story could be
Multiple job seeking strategies are needed, definitely
Love this channel! Just subscribed!
uhhh..can you tell me why recruiters never call back?
and yea i have customized my resume for every job i applied to, also many online sites only let you have one master resume even if you are interested in multiple roles at the same place
Hi! I’m a recruiter. Many times it’s that we have so many applicants and multiple jobs to recruit for. However, this does not mean that it’s ok to not send a response, most likely you should hear back but via a message from the applicant system not the recruiter managing the job opening. To the speakers point, getting past the applicant system is huge. You do this by connecting with people st the place you’d like to work OR finding out who you already know with connections there.
Because they are lazy bimbos who let the software do all the work. Which it doesn’t.
Jessica Hicks Thanks for your honesty. Sadly, what you are describing is you not doing you job properly and suggesting nepotism. This is why I started my own company.
cruisepaige not true at all. why don’t you try the work first and then provide your opinion afterwards.
What you people don't understand is companies now go through contract companies. If they like the contract employee they hire them direct. This saves on the cost of hiring someone they have to let go or lay off.
I haven't looked for a job in 20 years and never went without.
uh....she failed to explain what alternatives to job searching there are other than the usual. disappointed.
Can someone answer this?
Paula Zemeckis hi! I’m a recruiter. People hire people they like and can relate well to. Networking and building relationships is the first step to finding out about jobs and after applying to a job, getting through the applicant tracking system and to actually talking with someone. Of course she mentions the keywords and making sure you’re not filtered out of the applicant pool, yes that’s true as well. However the key is to get past the applicant tracking system is getting someone to refer or advocate for you in some way. :) I post videos about these type of topics if you’d like to know more happy to do an informal video.
Did you listen?
Networking
@@JessicaHicks “People hire people they like and can relate well to.”
That is absurd! So you mean to say that hiring managers hire people, who have no skills, but only hire them because they like them? What is work? A social club?
“Networking and building relationships is the first step to finding out about jobs “
Again, that is absurd. Am I supposed to ask everyone whether he/she heard of an opening that requires so and so skills? That is like finding a needle in hay stock.
“and after applying to a job, getting through the applicant tracking system and to actually talking with someone.”
How?
“Of course she mentions the keywords and making sure you’re not filtered out of the applicant pool, yes that’s true as well.”
That is the only good piece of advice that she gave.
“However the key is to get past the applicant tracking system is getting someone to refer or advocate for you in some way. :)”
So in other words, we must beg. How degrading!
“I post videos about these type of topics if you’d like to know more happy to do an informal video.”
No thanks, you depressed me enough!
I heard it’s all about “key words” on your resume that helps you land a job.
Same I heard the same thing from ym English teacher when she showed how she got her job at the school
Thank you!
Im so frustrating recently to find a job
I can see lot of negative comments n here let me tell about myself ( sorry for grammatical errors ). I am from small town from India (south ) I was completely disowned by my family and friends Beca I was intovert and very very bad wigh studies , I was written off even from my teachers tat i couldn’t achieve anything n life , now I m 27 double master honours from top 40th University in world ( university of Sydney Australia ) I went through my scholarship from India for securing 97 percent in my bachelors , even with percentage and 3 degrees I couldn’t find job but not even one second of my life I had negative thought , I had one rule every morning give ur 100 percent more then what u gave yesterday , I used to apply for 50 jobs ( desired position ) after 5 months ended up in JP Morgan chase in Sydney as investment banker , reason I am telling u this , it’s very very simple there are tons of opportunities out there it’s u , ur vision ur commitment and never say I quite attitude changes ur mind ( coming from poor family with very poor English speaking ability and introvert if I can achieve means anyone can achieve anything n life ) sorry for my bad English , I am learning still
Wow! Someone needs to make a movie about you! You are a very strong person 😃🌸
You are Indian. Indians have brains.
Nice lady and she certainly appears to be sincere, but I disagree with her on many issues. The last two jobs I've had came from responding to ads. She also didn't address the issue of 'I'm starving/have bills to pay. I don't have time to do all this evaluation'. She's correct, if I'm looking at an ad and it's for a CEO position, I won't bother to reply because there is no way I'm qualified. But when I was in the job search mode, if I had one or two qualifications, I would apply. You want to get past the computer evaluation of your resume is simple - you use the terms that the ad uses. If it says 'must have experience with Notifier alarm panels' - hopefully you have this experience. In the resume you send in you state EXACTLY those words, but let's say your experience is with Honeywell panels instead, you include in your resume that you have experience with alarm panels.
This lady goes on to say that the job you get isn't/doesn't have to be your 'forever' job. But hey, if it is, bravo. I work with a couple people who have over 25 years with this one employer. They have moved up over the years, but they were treated right, they liked what they were assigned to do, so they stayed.
I disagree that you shouldn't put out a TON of resumes. It's a numbers game, the more you are out there, the better your chances. The picky job seeker is going to have a very hard time, they are putting one bullet in the gun at a time and hoping to hit the bullseye. The 'eager' seeker, is putting in an ammo magazine and firing away - which do YOU think will have better odds at hitting the bullseye??
The "picky" job seeker is perfecting his marksmanship while the "eager" one is spraying and praying and gaining no skill. Who will hit the bullseye more consistently in the end?
Yeah, kind of a 2009 approach, when companies weren't hiring.
You are right. You CAN get a job through the ads. It's certainly true. However, as you said, it's a numbers game. And if you have a well established network built over time, it can cut down your search time. When you apply exclusively online, you do indeed face many obstacles. It does require many many submissions, over and over. So why not talk to your contacts and see what jobs may not be advertised? Why not get some help getting your resume shown to the hiring manager? This of course is not a quick process. Which is why I say - always be growing your network. Because you never know.
Great advice! Much better than she gave!
Put the keywords (the job description) in white font in your resume). It’s the only way.
This is such an awesome tip LOL
I see a lot a disagreeing in the comments, but she's right that networking is the fastest way to land. Statistically that's a fact. However, there are faster ways to network than spending so much time evaluating. Strategically written emails sent to LinkedIn connections who work at the target company can get real results very quickly. Develop a rapport with a very quick first email, when they respond you can start asking for the info you need about who to send a resume to other than applying online like everyone else. No need for "informational interviews", just quick conversations is all you need to expand your network. She makes a great point that everyone you talk to you should ask who else you should be talking to. What do you wish you knew before you started is also a good question, but you can also just google that exact question for your profession and get a ton of great info.
re: Develop a rapport...and start asking.... That's if they respond and converse. Amazingly, most LinkedIn first level connections aren't interested in much more than maintaining the inanimate stamp collection of profiles they have and feel put upon when asked to converse unless it is simply and purely a peer-to-peer collegial discussion of a topic or issue of mutual interest and equal benefit to both. The new practice --also coach-induced-- of sales by stealth has raised the defensive guards up a mile high when members are approached in such a manner. The well has become very tainted if not poisoned altogether. Silence or monosyllabic responses can predominate over any helpful response. Definitely give it a try, but keep expectations low and use plenty of other outreach methods.
correct in fact tech events open up possible options based on my experience it does not hurt to meet new contacts
Speed Up My Job Search k in voy hi 7
I think its good to keep expectations low when looking for a job in general
LinkedIn sucks.
If looking for jobs was eaisier in the old days, then maybe employers and job hunters should go back to using the help wanted pages of newspaoers. And I'm not trying to be funny. The problem with internet job hunting is too much information, much of which is noise that hides the signal.
This is no different than the bs they fed us in College of “networking and talk to people” never worked for me, if I narrowed myself like she says I would hav nevr efound a job doing what I love in an indistry that has nothing to do with mine
I agree 100%!
Yea Yea but what happens when you go to these companies for a job and the point you right back to online application? I just wasted gas and time when I could have just filled out the application in the first place. I was turned away from lots of jobs trying to network and show up. So I don't see how either works.
Yup 👍🏾 and I approved your msg.
Is job hopping a "sign that you're confident" when the reason you hop is that you're on short term contracts ?
That TED Talk is terrific. Wish it had been longer.
uhhh no...people don’t have time too look at random resumes unless they serve a purpose THIS VIDEO IS ONLY FOR ENTRY LEVEL POSITIONS
Long term unemployed don’t have the luxury of choice
She's like a Ted X guru. These people really know their stuff. Otherwise Ted X won't let them speak. She probably has lots of Linked In contacts too. Very impressive business person.
I think you are confusing TED with TEDx.
are you being sarcastic?
Instaguru
And fourth, what does each employer really want? And FOURTH: just because you think they should hire you because you think you can do the job, doesn't mean they will see it that way. Worse, it doesn't even mean they should see it that way if they don't.
I get less and less opportunity because I am a foreigner and the fact that I cannot do anything to change that fact drives me crazy.
This is the first pointless Ted talk I have ever seen. Old people talking about young people puts me to sleep. It's hard to ignore how bias hiring managers are. If you don't have family that works at the job or the manager isn't your spouse then good luck. All this is useless information. That guy was so desperate when looking for a job he BOUGHT his way into interviews. I am sure he got hired at one but he had to go to 40 different places to get 1 job. That saids alot
A woman giving advice about jobs... not pointless... It is not pointless if you really need a job. You are probably not someone who really NEEDS a job right now.
Very cool talk. Thank you Sara
I asked the same set of questions and person got offended on me .🙄
Meeting 1 on 1 with these employers for something that they acknowledge your presence and commitment for is becoming more and more crucial these days when identities and credentials are just "phoned in" it seems.
You are often be better off with a random selection of people who meet the (realistic) qualifications for a position. More diverse people, more diverse ideas, better retention. Always be careful of rewarding A and hoping for B.
it is easier to open your own company than to get hired in some fields. I am a java full stack developer with 20+ years of experience. Tried very hard to get a job in Canada for 2 years. Now I am considering to open a game company because I am able to make better games than some companies I applied for!
Diego Oliveira
Go for it. You are fortunate to have a marketable product, "better games" than some company products.
Of course you have to market that "better" product. That may take some time to produce results.
Would not a guaranteed minimum income be a great enabler.?
Look into the social need for something called Universal (i.e. unconditional) Basic Income.
I hate the word 'career' sounds so wanky
Go to nearest technical college in a manufacturing district and take a short 2 - 6 month course in CNC machining, or programming CNC. You will be hired before you finish school. That's where the companies fill their openings; at the school. Stop the cycle and enjoy "Cycle Time" 4 hours out of an 8 hour workday! You have plenty of time while the machine is running. You just need to be nearby. You can learn this; anybody can. You will be uplifted after just one week.
Dude the word Career gets on my nerves Dude..
Wonderful information!
This is a great presentation.
...with terrible production quality, which is a real shame. Whomever was mixing sound and running the camera owes the speaker an apology.
I've Experienced that my self...
Seriously? Nearly every job or interview that I have ever had came from applying online.
not if your asleep
Me too, and in the old days, from a newspaper posting.
Great talk!
I feel like making myself known to employees of a company I am applying to is a fast track to being blacklisted off the bat. I could strike gold and get a good reaction but I think it is more likely that I will be seen as cocky and a time waster and I think that after a couple of these attempts (from myself and other applicants) those people would simply lock their accounts to prevent time wasters. This seems clever but it wont work for long before companies put policies in place to stop it.
I feel that this along with most of the alternative job seeking techniques would be more likely to work if you are already an established professional, or a grad who was top in their class. For most of us 'average' people we would be met with a cold indifference.
Also in the political climate these days I cannot help but wonder how many people will be able to make it into offices with unwarranted mystery packages. Offices I know locally have security doors guarded by fierce secretaries to prevent stunts like this.
It seems nice and I will certainly give it some thought but I wont hold my breath.
it also seems more likely to impress marketers than, say, researchers
Very good motivation video.
Hi. I m not getting what are second and third questions . Can anybody write here what they are exactly?
ummm yaaaa i have plenty of clarity if purpose and no im not afraid, anything else?
awesome video.
Excellent piece
AI is killing hiring manager jobs.....
My husband has been trying to get an HR job for over a decade. Can confirm.
How about instead of condescendingly 'teaching' us to find work you put your time and create more jobs instead.

Lukas spent $$...a finacial investment with a 25% return to maybe get back his $$. I'm creative, bold and extroverted, but I'm not going to spend $$ on strangers to possibly, maybe get a chance to be considered valuable enough to take the time to talk to about a position I'd be an amazing fit for. The career talk stuff is a bit out of touch as well..I mean let's cut the BS. People want to work. Preferably in a field you love and have passion for, but a job is needed to survive for most people today and sitting around and chatting with people after taking all kinds of time and energy to do all this research is a nice thought in theory but it puts even more advantage on the side of the employer and if we keep up these current attitudes of giving more and more fir less and less, soon there will be no reason for emoyers to attempt any kind of self initiated interaction with job candidates then maybe to deliver on anything at all. Sorry, but when it's getting to the point that you need to buy a small chance at a business's notice with doughnuts and KGB style resume delivery the scales have already taken a serious tilt and not to the advantage of the job seeker....which personally speaking, is my #1 concern, as a job seeker...I'll do a fantastic job for a good company, but it needs to be mutually beneficial and not just me begging for a chance at whatever they decide to toss out to their advantage only. A good job should be well valued but so should a good employee and somehow that seems to have lost along the way over the past 2 decades. I get the desire of employers and hiring managers to make the hiring process as easy for them as possible....I have held a hiring manager position and I'm pretty sure that part of the reasom managers of any sort that also hire and fire are paid so much more than the direct reports is because it's a big part of their job to do the work it takes to find, vet and hire quality staff that deserves to feel like a person that brings something valuable to the table while working for the company on their true professional merit...not because bribes or personal sales gimmicks that work to my advantage at the cost of the potential candidate should be expected in return for a chance at being noticed.
