20 Images From The Job Search Process That Prove How Absurd It Can Be These Days

Do you want a job? Stuck in an endless job search? Reddit's /r/recruitinghell knows exactly where you're at. In 2021, it's never been harder to find employment. The economy is struggling, and with low pay everywhere, it's hard to even find something worth applying for. Many of us are having an absolutely miserable time with our job applications, followed by twice as much miserable time when the website asks you to fill in all the information from your resume a second time.

The application and interview process is draining. It's a cruel world out there in the era of digital job recruitment. Sadly, this collection won't get you a job, but it could make you feel better about not having one right now. Here are some posts from people equally as frustrated with the job recruitment process as you are, and hopefully it'll remind you you're not alone in that vast sea of applicants.

The Taboo Needs To Be Broken

Inhumansoflatecapitalism @Inhumansoflate1 "It's rude to discuss your salary." No, it isn't. That's something companies made up so they could pay some of you less than others with no one getting mad. Discuss your salaries. Find the discrepancies. Demand more. The workers are on the same team. O reddit

Honest Ad

Sorry but we are closed due to no staff. Turns out no one wants to work anymore. We are now hiring. If you would like to apply, please go to our website, fill out an online application, then submit a resume with all of the exact same information you included in the application, as well as a cover letter which summarizes the things in the resume and application. We prefer someone with five years experience on the niche software that literally no one uses except us. Starting wages range from $11 to $16 an hour (LOL just kidding, it's $11 for everyone). You will also be subjected to humiliating personality and drug testing as means to test how willing you are to surrender your dignity for $400 a week, so desperate for staff, we won't call you for an interview until six weeks from now. prepare yourselves for that mentally. Oh, also, even though we're
