are there any books about the difficulty of getting a job?

>> No.13402992

Getting a job is piss easy, just get someone who isn't in complete chaos to help with your CV and pretend you're a normie, sort of withdrawn but no spaghetti spilling and you're good to go.

Maybe for shit-tier jobs like a barista or retail cuck. Not if you want anything that pays over 40k. It's especially difficult if your credit is shit and you have little experience. I've applied for THOUSANDS of entry level jobs, only had a handful of interviews to show. I'm not autistic or anti-social either, I'm well spoken, look great, say all the right things. Nothing ever comes through. The last bit is also why I've become estranged from family and friends. They see a perfectly normal, if not more talented person than them, just sitting around and they think the only explanation and possible cause of this rests entirely on me. Oh you are applying for the wrong jobs! *shows jobs* Oh your resume must be bad *shows resume* WELL YOU MUST BE DOING SOMETHING WRONG. An entropy soon encroaches, and all your possessions start to break. Vehicle breaks (a lifeline if you do not live where public transportation exists). Clothes wear out. Everything sooner or later breaks. And this disorder spreads to your social life: nobody wants to lend any helping hand because your prolonged unemployment is proof you don't deserve anything.

You're not wrong. HR people are also the most unimaginative mediocrities to boot. Corporate HR wants a single particular type of drone that uses all the same buzzwords and has all the same attitudes and that's it. The emphasis on "diversity" these days is comical for that reason. It's positively dystopian.

Let me tell you something.

When I worked at an Arby's I saw a girl that was LITERALLY AUTISTIC as an assistant manager, and an assistant manager that boardered on retardation. I worked with them both. It's easy to get a job, and beggers can't be choosers. If you want something nice you must struggle for it.

here's two recent fuckups. one cunt wanted a unicorn...even the recruiter said she was delusional about the market. she treats people like disposeable trash to boot. another was a retarded boomer who didn't know how college majors work but was just so damned sure he was correct, and other boomershit that shows he hasn't been on a job hunt since the 1980s but is running hiring processes himself! lmao

one i just got turned down for love love loved me, but not 2 hours after the interview said they went with the other guy who was a better company fit, aka an insider/diversity hire/nepotist/dudebro who likes the same sportsball team.

On paper. Not in the flesh. In fact, I am better than vice presidents and heads of divisions I have met. I found them to be very low IQ, to write slowly and to have poor reasoning at times.
