I had my first real job at 25 and after a bit of time a recruiter contacted me and said he had an employer interested in someone like me . I did two phone interviews with him and got asked ridiculous questions like “what have you don’t everyday no matter what? “ I wanted to say brush my teeth , but he gave me an example “I work out everyday at the gym no matter what . “ I replied I work out also , but I had the flu this year and had to take a few weeks off.” He acted like I just shot Lincoln in disbelief.
I get a phone interview with the company and get asked personality questions I suppose. I do another one of these interviews . We are at four interviews and nothing of yet has to do with the job. I do a total of three in person interviews and I get a email from the recruiter “you didn’t get it .”
I realized this is what it is now . Not to mention that every other job I had before was hourly with zero vacation time and needing approval to take a piss . Just venting and sucks they can even do this . This took hours of time , gas money , and etc .
The hard part for me is my siblings make a lot of money and have specialized skills in computer science and electrical engineering. They all do really well and have to turn jobs down . A lot of my friends do also and I just feel like a failure . None of them are anti-worker assholes and they have worked shit jobs and they believe in taxing themselves and etc , but unless you are in a place where “I need to shit , but my boss don’t let me .” It’s hard to get . They also have not had to have a job interview for a decade plus . Just venting 🙁
