A person says I have sent many applications. The common responses: ”It’s YOUR resume. It’s YOUR cover letter. It’s YOUR interview skills’”. In modern society, the individual is always to blame and never the societal conditions, namely way too much competition for mediocre jobs. Growing number of people will lose their jobs due to automatization. There will be hard times ahead for workers worldwide. And the problem in this situation is solved by tailoring one’s resume? As long as societal problems are masked as problems of the individual no change is possible.
