Is the job market actually cooked or is it just me?
I’ve been struggling to find a new job which sucks bc I don’t like my current job.
Last year I only applied for jobs that were actual career jobs that I had related qualification in and tailoring my cover letter with each job but got nowhere so now I’ve just been applying for whatever which is mostly ‘unskilled’ no qualification required jobs like in retail, receptionist work, hospitality, various other jobs that I figured I would have an easier time getting because I have some experience in that kind of work and again it’s low pay and doesn’t require any actual qualifications but I am yet to even hear back from anyone, after a month I just assume I won’t be hearing back and it’s demoralising
Is the market actually cooked or am I doing the wrong thing? I know everyone says it’s who you know not what you know but what if I don’t know anyone?
