I’ve been a recruiter at a staffing agency in Ohio for 6 months now. Even though I am still new to this industry, I can still see huge cracks in this job market. One of the biggest things I have noticed is it seems like companies absolutely do not want to train at all, even for very easy jobs.
Companies always act like they are desperately hiring, yet they will have reliable people at their doors. People who are desperate for a job and will be there everyday, and all they would need is a little bit of training. Nope, will not even glance at them for a chance.
I am so sorry if you are someone desperately looking for a job and you know you will be reliable. It is not your fault, we recruiters (at least me) are having a really hard time for you as well. I want to give these people’s jobs so bad but these HR teams will just not budge. Keep looking, keep applying, every “no” gets you closer to a “yes”.
