I guess first quarter is usually the worst time in the year to job hunt but holy shit it’s fucking bleak out here. I live in a well populated college town in the south and 90% of job listings are nursing or something highly specialized. Slim pickings for the rest of us. Feels like my biology degree is totally useless when I can’t even get a call back from McDonalds lol. I’m so cooked
Even engineers are struggling a bit right now. My sis is an engineer and she just landed a job after 9 months of unemployment after a lay off.
In a cruel irony this economy is better for baristas looking for work than it is STEM nerds. Just learn to make lattes!
Most efficient economic system, everyone!
More business than ever, but since employers are satisfied with the labor they got. Gen Z is fucked unless they are exceptionally talented (and then that exceptional becomes the expectation of gen Z. Fun)
