I have my first round of interviews on Thursday, in an entry level position. The requirements are a BSc Chemistry, and one year related experience.
I had to write a test to apply, and write another test before the interview.
The wage is less than what I make now, working as a sanitation worker in a hospital.
I am most of the way through my degree, but I don't think they realize that, even though it is stated on my resume.
My degree is one of the hardest to attain in university, but after looking around the past few months I am disheartened by the jobs I see. I've seen posting to work at toy stores that pay more.
How am I meant to earn a living, if a full time job isn't enough to pay rent? This is one of the few full time jobs I have found in my city. I was contacted by another company that advertising full time, but in reality the position was on call casual work. Requiring to be on call day and night for a minimum 4 days a week for six months. No guaranteed hours, and expected to be on site within two hours of the call.
