erm what da sigma
Nextiva is a horrible, soulless company. Funny they got you of all people to shill for them. Super ironic it's on this video too.
Link doesn't work.
You should cover the trades collapse caused by mismanagement and greed.
For example:
I worked for an aerospace manufacturing company but ive seen it across the entire industry, being freelance ive worked many places as temp hire to meet quotas. A master class machinist which means 4 years college and years of experience. The managers, hr, office staff and shift leads have degrees or associates in legal, business, accounting and even in counseling but not single one with engineering or machining degree or even training. those are the ones picking new hires. Since they actually have no knowledge of the industry, they work in, they pick on the likeability scale. ive seen them hire game physics designers, small building designers (sheds), server administrators and coders as engineers. this is why american craftsmanship has fallen.
It would be similar to asking your h&r block gal to overhaul your car engine.
That's why boeing has had so many problems. Nda's so I can't say more on that. I like breathing. They're more effective at getting rid of troublesome people than hillary.
Its because employers refuse to train people. There is no worker shortage. There is a shortage of cheap labour.
fr
this actually baffles me, training staff is tax deductible as a work expense so there's very little economically stopping them, yeah the staff training them are a little slower but down the line you have 2 effective and skilled employees so it averages out, it makes no sense
Not true. The books are cooked. Those lost jobs are never coming back. They’re lying to keep a positive public opinion.
This is exactly it! We're just expected to have experience in every single platform and tool.
@@jimbothegymbro7086it makes sense in a few ways but if I say em imma be labeled a crazy mofo
I should've gotten a job 20 years ago instead of being 5 years old.
I know right? How silly of me to not learn JavaScript and Python in the womb.
2008 would be just around the corner
Amazing, il just get my time machine and just buy a house in 2005 and get a job so I can avoid all of it.
I'm in IT they're not hiring either
😂😂😂😂😂😂
The worst part is if you have a parent who grew up in a different time and thinks you're just being lazy
Lol literally my girls stepdad... thinking it's easy to get an entry level job when literally everyone and their grandma is looking for a job or a second job
literally my parents
Literally my mom. My mom’s been telling me to get a part time job since my junior year of high school. I applied to over 400 job listings, consistently checking on my application by calling the hiring manager, only for my application to get rejected right after I hang up. And she thinks I’m just sitting on my ass.
Same.. my parents think that I’m not even trying or even looking for a job when I really am.. it’s just that the job market is too brutal
Exactly…
I have been in my field for over 10 years. And there were a few employers that literally told me I have everything they needed but they cant pay me what i deemed fair. One guy was brutaly honest and said he would hire me if he could but his hands were tied to hire a cheaper less experienced candidate.
Last year i was looking for work for months i had applied for 112 jobs and got a crappy one. I still kept looking for 2 more months and finally found a good paying job.
In total for me it took 6 months over 150 applications and over 30 in person interviews.
This economy is crazy
Same lmaaaooo it took me 6 months to find my very first corporate accounting job. I started looking in Dec. 2023, sent out over 200 applications, 10-15 interviews, and finally landed into 1 offer ugghh… even when I was looking for an internship lol it took me like almost 1 year and a half to get my tax internship smh
Dunkin didn't want to hire me because my resume is too good. Buddy was confused on why I wanted to work there so I had to explain that nobody was actually hiring except them and I understood that they weren't gonna pay me the wages I deserve but I was fine because the checks would be better than nothing and I was tired of living off savings
You only applied for 112 jobs in six months? My former manager said he applied for 2,000+ in six months before he got the job at our company.
After I started looking 10 months ago, I started with a recruiter I knew, but the individual head hunter wasn't with them anymore so I went into the usual suspects-- competing recruiters, Indeed, and a few other places.
About 100 applications, 4 interviews, and 2 offers later, I found my current job a month ago. Indeed and LinkedIn are worse than useless-- the vast majority of postings are either ridiculously old and already filled long ago, or they are frauds. One company had the audacity to offer me a part-time, "kind of" seasonal job with a contract that included a power of attorney clause.
All of my full time jobs were through recruiting services, and they were far more indicative of the job market because they didn't have anything for me until recently, and I'm highly skilled/experienced. I have zero doubt that 99% of the job postings were rejecting me because of my age.
It should be illegal to call a job "Entry Level" when 3+ years experience isn't exactly a beginner.
Exactly
So what are we going to do about it, we need to past a law for this bullshit
Yes
wouldn't 3 plus years mean your almost a Seasoned worker at that point? That would imply that the company is looking for seasoned or veteran workers and not new blood beginners
Well a lot of times they don't call it entry level, but they still pay like the job is entry-level
"Im sorry your child's application for kindergarten has been denied, he does not meet the minimum 2+ year experience required, good luck in your search" that's how idiotic "entry level experience" sounds
Nah, it's more like "has your child been in an office job since kindergarten"
Then the door is held wide open for nepos to get in.
Reminds me of that story of a job opening that required 20 years of experience using a certain programming language...
That programming language hadn't even existed for 20 years at that point.
I'm going to blow you away but that's a thing in the northern VA, MD, DC area. Not exactly the experience bit, but several of the daycares we tried to put our kid into had an application and a period of like 2 to 4 months where they reviewed the application. Only ones that accept outright are expensive ones because obviously they are expensive which means less people which means they will take anyone willing to pay 3 to 5k a month for "Montessori" (which is iffy imho)
@@SimpSizzler I never knew "Montessori" was an English word. In Sri Lanka it refers to schools for small children. Similar to daycare.
Ghost jobs should be ILLEGAL.

@@MrDanielvasswell at least we can make it harder if anything.
Oh yeh
False advertising, stock manipulation, probably a few other things apply.
The same should apply to "industry standard pay." That's racketeering, surely.
I applied to a PizzaHut, it had one of those stupid AI chatbots that set a job interview for me. When I showed up they weren’t even hiring… waste of my time…
Same thing happen to me when i tried to apply at McDonald. Went to the interview only to be told they are more than likely not going to hire and even need to cut hours back.
This has happened to me a few times from Mcdonalds
Unacceptable practice! Sorry this happened to you
were u applying for SDE or web developer ?
I applied to McDonalds and didn’t even get a reply. I don’t know what more they want for someone flipping burgers, I’m halfway done with my degree in biochemistry. Guess I need my PhD or something.
The ‘70s:
“I’d like to apply for a job, please?”
“You have a pulse! You’re hired! Are you wearing a tie? Clearly you’re management material!”
Today: “I have a master’s degree and speak three languages.”
“We also require three years of experience!”
“But this is an entry level job!”
“Please leave before I call the police!”
Oooh, yikes the minimum is 4 languages…we’ll be in touch
“Thank you for uploading your resume along with inputing that same information into our site.” 🤗
Fr, i think companies hiring entry lvl jobs should not have the right to require experince like bro its called entry level💀
today : so what would you bring to the company ? applicant : *roger* *roger* employer : YOU'RE HIRED!
“We decide to go with someone with more experience” 🙃
We've made so much "progress" as a society and yet our lives are more stressful and meaningless than ever. How ironic.
*pseudo-progress ...

Who told you that we made progress as society?
Let me guess, media, companies and politicians AKA liars.
@@AKUJIVALDO technically we did in medical field. economy even if inflation is insane but its been calm for now. technological, science, qol. but...... we are less human and turn to robots kinda and people are fighting to live in the moment but obey the cruel corporate rules. we are more united as a society but also more distant :(

That would be the case if you could pay a bribe to get the job lol
But the hot shingles are in your area
well the hot girls wont F you, but the companys atleat F you ALOT.
Any girl over 5/10
“You don’t have enough experience” well when am I ever gonna get the experience if you don’t show me
I swear, it is just terrible how people who are trying to get their first job barely have a chance because a lot of jobs would never hire people who actually have experience. Like, jobs train people how to do the job they applied for so they can get the hang of it. It's like saying people who have no job experience aren't capable of learning the ropes in order to get the job. Like, seriously, how are people supposed to get experience if they are never given the chance? Not everyone wants to work at a fast food restaurant, let alone for a first job. It feels extremely insulting that you get rejected just because you have no experience and you are only going to start at part-time at that.
And if you do have the degree and experience, you may then be considered over qualified for a position and they don't want to have to pay you what you are worth so they still won't hire you.
"That's not my problem, next"
@@oliviaarnest5536yep, running into this issue now. I’ve worked in factories, service, and retail. I’ve got several certifications. I’m getting rejected for having “too much experience”…
@@tainamichelle2683especially the ones that are barely turn 18 and out of high school
Because employers keep on asking for 3-8 years of experience for entry level positions, and pay peanuts for it.
this is going on since the 80's
Sounds like a personal issue
@@AK255.Sounds like you don't know shit
Muppet @@AK255.
Hey I’ll take the peanuts
Companies deadass sit here and say "Yeah you're gonna need a degree to do something we could easily train you to do, as well as a minimum five years of experience, despite the fact that no one else will hire you either so you can't get the experience."
"Why does no one want to work these days?" He said after throwing away a perfectly decent catch because it wasn't Moby Dick.
They want people that need income to volunteer for jobs that should be paid positions.
I hear that factories are hiring anyone these days
As somebody who’s trained new hires, people have also just gotten exponentially dumber with the attention span of a squirrel. It’s not surprising that companies want someone who already knows how to do the job.
@@roji556yeah but then how is anyone new supposed to GET the experience? A huge collapse could happen soon if everyone is unemployed

@@rawcoustic1718 it’s not funny both are serious problems
My parents refused to believe I had a hard time finding a job. They assumed I self-sabotage out of laziness/anxiety even though I offered to show them lists of places I applied to. It took a friend their age to make them see reality since she was looking for a job as long as i have with the same results - almost a year of sending 100+ applications and maybe 2-3 interviews. I finally got a job through someone who recommended me.
My hypocritical elderly Filipino parents are exactly the same way. They're so delusional about the whole job shit that if I even showed videos like this, I know they're clueless as heck.
It's impossible to get an entry level job, because they require 3 years of experience, but you can't get experience, because you need experience to get experience. That is super flawed.
And some will say needs 3 years professional experience coding in at least 1 language, then list required 7 random languages, with a list of software, and having released a product. Then say at the end you need a bachelor's degree minimum. At some point you might as well just try to make and sell your own software it's so bad.
Catch-22
@@JohnDoe11VII software is the easiest cheapest thing to actually build and release a product all on your own no employees.
I really feel sorry for people that want to build physical products, now that's really hard without outside investors.
You should "work" in your own company during study. Then you have the experience 😅
It’s not flawed, it’s a consequence of a few factors firstly new graduates are often expecting to be able to live independently so they require higher salaries (companies are unwilling to pay this for someone they will have to retrain anyway), in the past graduates would live with their parents till they married.
Second, people figured out these degrees don’t give the holder valuable skills, on the job experience is more important.
Thirdly, what you consider entry level is often an important function for the hiring company, just because you think its entry level does not mean they want someone inexperienced.
I recent hired a recent graduate, she called in sick every day and had no skills, she’d learned to interview well, we let her go after a month. Next time we’ll want someone with a few years of work experience at least, for the entry level role
The only way to get a job these days is to know somebody on the inside
Minorities are screwed, we are first generation student to finish school and don’t even have families that can help us get jobs it’s sad
In my case it didn't matter. All applicants had to apply online, and ATS filtered me out for a reason I'll never know & noone can tell me.
Pro tip : that's how it has always been. The difference today is we no longer have real communities.
@@marcusmuah9460it's not a problem unique to minorities.

i asked a manager point blank why they didn't hire me, she said most people's applications get filtered through their ai. i realized we entered a dystopian future at that point.
That's why in one of my first year college class, they said to customize your resume to include words in the job description instead of what you already have, like if it says "teamwork" and you put "able to work with others," change it to teamwork. It's so annoying to have to do this.
My father still looks through them manually and rejects most of the time from grammar, not high enough school degree, not good enough in math (its needed if they atleast want to be the cashier at the company) and yes, they do accept people without experience, in so far their application is good, but if you arent efficent then theyre gonna wait for the trial to end to then pay you (i forgot how exactly it works) and then you will talk with him again where he says if u can work there as a full time/part time job or not
Look in germany i dont know many companies that do it because they know it wouldnt work, like a bakery, cashier at a super market, fast food worker, electronics stores, or generally stores
@@Pfennigfuchs-z7v But they should.
Worst thing is it filters out good candidates lacking the skill to navigate this irrelevant hellscape😂@@lydmonkey4593
That's what people dont realize. Many if not most job postings are fake. They are the company fishing for market info for when they really need to hire. They can post because it isnt time commitment from HR staff to comb thru the resumes, they just have AI do it. And if a unicorn candidate applies then they'll interview them and maybe hire them but they have no intention of filling the position unless someone quits
Things that should be illegal:
1. Posting ghost jobs.
2. Posting jobs without declaring salary range.
3. Posting entry-level or basic jobs that require advanced or niche experience.
4. Not responding to a candidate within 2 weeks of them applying.
5. Rejecting a candidate without sharing a proper reason or feedback.
"Just walk into the building, find the manager, give him a firm handshake and ask for a job."
"That may have worked in your days but if I try that today, best case they'll tell me to fill out an online application, worst case they'll call security."
Yep
I've done to varying degrees success. Got my first job that way but hasn't worked since
Come on sonny! You gotta pull your self up by those bootstraps, look 'em in the eye, and tell 'em. "I don't have much experience, but by golly, I work hard and I'm honest!"
Boomers are so stupid that they think this works lol
Stop applying at offices. Go work in a kitchen or a construction site. Both of those jobs offer training and will take you straight out of high school and wont be replaced by ai in the next ten years.
And the worst part is if people blaming YOU saying you're not applying enough. Basically blaming you
I feel that
Their main diet are rubber boots.
This one really hit close to home. Literally.
"These jobs take intelligence" yea, if it's *entry level* that implies they want *entry level candidates*
Dude I was just under 2weeks unemployed putting in 5+, apps a day getting to the point where I was blindly applying to everything just for income. Ex gf hit me with the "it kinda feels like you just don't wanna work". People with reliable jobs they've worked for years are super apathetic dude.

Printing your resume is literally pointless
Yes because they get hundreds of applications. It's impossible tobsee through manually. The boomer way doesn't work anymore.
@christine-kht they get hundred online. Those who show up in person should be considered more seriously rather than being rejected outright
@@victora.1329HR is lazy and low-iq.
Nowadays if you simply walk in and ask for a job, they’ll most likely blacklist you from ever having a job at that company and even call the police on you for harassment or trespassing.
@@christine-khtShowing up in person with your resume in hand and ready to interview if needed should increase your chances of getting that job. I don't even see how getting the hundreds of ONLINE applications somehow makes it harder for them to see the one you brought in printed on paper when you're probably one of like three people that tried it. They shouldn't even have the option to turn you away to force you through their automated fuckin system so that you ACTUALLY get lost in the soup.
My dad told me how he got a job in 1956...he walked in, talked with the boss for a few minutes, hired, came in next day...no paperwork and all they asked was who the check is is gonna be made out to and the payroll lady showed him the single typed sheet to make sure info was correct...thats it.
No nonsense
No bs

Fair chance and sink or swim
this. as much as technology is helpful it’s ruined so many things. i missed the time when you could just walk in and get a interview on the spot now it’s just “check online for the job postings” fcking hate it here
Funniest part is if 85% of the applicants today walked into a place like that back then they would ask why your looking for an entry level position and not a manager/corporate position lol
It's still like this in some parts of the trades. After applying for a bunch of white collar jobs and getting ghosted I said "fuck it" and called up a couple local plumbing companies. I talked to the owner of all of them and had a job by the end of the week.

I wish good luck to everyone here! ✊🗿
yeah, I'm convinced the ads are all scammers and ghost postings, there's maybe a dozen genuine jobs a month and even then they're mega picky
Government has to keep up the perception of a strong job market. They leverage partnerships with tech companies to accomplish that.
based sigma
You also can't look in the same places for postings as people have always done. Some jobs are hidden but hiring. Different websites, alot of corporations have independent hiring practices through their websites only.
Indeed has ALOT of industrial opportunities like mining and fishing vessels. Government jobs are mainly on the careers page on the government of Canada website, Some places only advertise on certain sites or their own company pages, Some places dont even put ads out on the internet. Alot of places will just put a help wanted sign and forgo any of that social media stuff. Ask multiple times, call back to see if they've received it, use ma'am or sir and be respectful. There's things you can do to make it easier and questionls you can ask to see more places to apply. and as corny as it was for my parents to advise me to do stuff like that, it all worked very well.

Moon summarizes it pretty much perfectly near the start of the video. 20 years ago employers were forced to interview candidates and treat them like a human being and use critical thinking to find the top talent. Now all your talent, skills, experience and even personally is literally just simplified down to a datapoint in a spreadsheet, and there is no human element at all.
The problem is the job market sucks now. Despite what the media will tell you. There aren't that many jobs available. I think the only type of jobs that companies still hire for are HR jobs. So whenever there is an opening for a good position, they either already have an internal person they want, or they will only hire the top people
Yeeh. Faxx😮
Add immigration and its impossible
I’ve work in Talent Acquisition for about 12 years now. Early in my career we were taught that recruiting has two aspects; the science (reading the data) and the art (reading the human element). Over the last few years our industry has completely ignored the ‘art’ aspect of hiring. Everything we do is now about data and proving a hire based on data. You can no longer justify a hire with the persons ACTUAL skillset or personality/motivation, we are forced to justify hires with data points which include things like race, gender, sexual orientation, etc.
There needs to be legislation on current hiring methods. We need to stop shipping so many middle class jobs overseas or we will no longer have a middle class.

Its like that in the middle east but they don't deport they keep you there.

It can be fixed with lawmaking. It takes just a little more time to email your lawmakers and suggest laws that would do a few things: The criteria of the ATS must be published to the job seeker for each position. Job seekers must be given a reason for any denials or rejections in X amount of time. Any advertised job must actually exist. No job seeker will be required to interview more than twice before a decision must be made unless subsequent time spent interviewing is compensated at a pro-rated hourly rate at fair-market value in the median of the posted salary for the position. And so on.
I am sure there will be commentors whine about the cost to businesses to jump through these hoops or whatever. And that would be true. Of course, it might be cheaper to hire a person on the spot.

Unfortunately there are just too many incompetent people out there, that some competent people might look incompetent.
@TheRimBrakeGuy yeah no more of this meaningless "thank you for investing your time" bullshit.
I've been working full time for 17 years. I have experience in factories, warehouses, retail, and management, yet it took me OVER A YEAR of non-stop applications to finally land a low pay job in a grocery store. I put in thousands of applications and only got 3 total interviews out of all of them. Most of the applications resulted in no response at all from the companies, or a copy and paste type email saying they've moved onto other candidates. One of the interviews was a total waste of time. It was for Dunkin. The job post said starting pay was $14 but in the interview they laughed and said the pay was only $8.
I live in a big city. When I first moved here seven months ago it took me over a month of sending out applications, probably almost 100, before I got hired at a retail store. Stayed there for months but eventually they tried to screw me over with the schedule, so I quit and then had my ged two weeks later.
At that point I'd learned a little bit from my experience and knew what online places to avoid applying too. And did multiple interviews inbetween quitting and getting my ged. One of which was a serving job that was advertised as paying 13 an hour but the interview said it was the minimum wage for servers, less then 3 dollars an hour.
Only place that hired me was a resteraunt that refuses to properly train me and will only reliably schedule me for two six hour shifts a week, even though I specifically applied for a full-time job.
Just about everywhere has a "were hiring" sign up, tho.
you have nothing
Its almost like that's the issue, @@eygs493! Amazing! If nobody's hiring but every buisness is "hiring"...
Can't wait for the "these jobs take high intelligence but keep playing the victim" bots to show up 😂
You should cone work at my warehouse. We pay $17 an hour and 95% of our employees don't speak any English. We literally hire anyone with a pulse. No experience needed
I also wanted to add something for the below entry level jobs (retail, warehouse, etc). A lot of the places that claim yo be hiring either aren't or arent hiring for an empty spot.
During covid, every company realized that they can use a skeleton crew with no real backlash if they claim to be hiring. Customers wont cause as much issues with slow service if they are "short staffed", and companies have been using that. Why fully staff a store if you only need half the normal ammount to keep it together just enough.
Also, a number of places ive seen will hire a place, then stop putting "underperforming" employees on the schedule until they either quit, or get to come back for seasonal
Basically its "If you are not exactly like me and arent smiling 24/7 you cant work here." 🤷🏽♂️
Indeed.

Toxic positivity.
With thousands of applicants why not
Agreed that’s why it’s so hard to be hired as a person with autism. I only like smiling when I actually feel like smiling and any sort of fake smiling just doesn’t look right on my face so I don’t do it.

Looks like you repeated one /joke
@@crazydrifter13 I think its a reference to fight club.
@@Universall-Man oh thanks
@@Universall-Man i think he was just trying to place heavier emphasis on that first point by repeating it.
@@TheBaguetteLV Switching the places of #2 and #3 and lowercasing the word”NOT” on #1 would have done the job.
Don't forget outsourcing. It skyrocketed for the past 4 years.
Globalism ruined everything. Now you don't compete just with others in your town or city, you must compete against 7 billion others in the planet.
What is outsourcing ?
@@EdgarLadrak Giving people in other countries a task to do as a job. For instance Roblox has employees in India to help with customer support
@@NKillBruh oooh ok I see thanks for the insight
I'd call that offshoring (at least in USA, I'm from Europe). Outsourcing doesn't imply it has to be from another country, could be another company in the same country.
Interestingly, it does happen to my country as well recently too (Poland), even though our country was never a victim of it, rather we are employed by Western companies. But current war made Poland into migrant destination country for work for Ukrainians.
On all accounts the fabric of society is unravelling due to predatory behaviours. This will end very badly.
The whole world's run by scammers and people going through the motions.
Agreed. People can talk politics and policies all they want but this country is diving towards a recession because of corporate greed. Has nothing to do with whatever color gang you’re representing. Both sides of the aisle have allowed us to be robbed.
I really wanna know what they think the end game is with going on like this cause this is not sub stainable
@@lovelydiva06my suspicion is they probably know something we don't about how fast things are actually unraveling.
Yeah nah something really bad is gonna happen soon in this world.
We need a 20 years applicant with a 20 years experience....Typical requirements.
"I'm the perfect candidate, the second I was born I started working accounting. My first words were "Damn you Excel!". My first steps were to use the printer. I got into arguments with my primary school maths teacher because they refused to use algebra. I skipped my high school prom because I was working the next day. I had twice your experience before I could drive a car"
@@volrag You are hired! People, this man (I hope that I am not misgendering you) fills up every possible requirement. Volrag 2024!
@@christopherneufelt8971 The person's funny, of course is a man.
@@christopherneufelt8971 "No, you are not hired"
Hiring manager to owner: "That candidate is overqualified for this job, and might use this as a starting place, and will most likely then hop over to another job. So no overqualified people."
So even if you are too good for the job you don't get it. This sh*t's f*cked!
For an entry-level job paying $12 an hour to boot.
I’m so tired of trying. This process has been driving me depressed, I just want it to end.
I've been at it for over a year and a half. You and me both.
The worst part is, when it does end and you finally get a job
Well now you have a terrible soul crushing job
And the company can treat you like extra terrible because there are thousands of applications
Same, finally landed a landscaping job. 10 to 14 hour days, no overtime, no safety checks performed once in 6 weeks, chemicals spilled allover equipment regularly and pesticide not handled properly. Never any clue when the days shift will end, then 90 minutes transit to get home. And the company fires people before they reach probation effectively treating employees as temps.
What city bro. I'm in Calgary the apparent job market capital of Canada and its same here
@@BrodyAleksander-YOB Man, I hate this fucking country.
Jobs now be like: 50+ years of work experience, a PHD in Physics, 0.2 cents per hour, no benefits, and work 12 hours per day
