Red Pill me on getting a job as a 5+ NEET.
Is it hard to get into construction? There is this constitution job available in my area that doesn't say anything about experience. In fact, it doesn't say anything more than, "Construction laborers. [Telephone]." What did they mean by this?
Other NEETs looking for help please join in. Don't let this thread be just about me.
Please respond.
if you have 2+ years of nothing after highschool the only option is killing yourself or leeching
t. 4 year neet
Just join the Army famalam it's either that or eventual suicide us NEETs are fucking worthless and nothing but a drain on society.
>>80869132
>5 years+
Let's be honest unless you have a crippling disability or mental condition there's no hope.
Someone post Uncle Remus' guide to being a NEET please.
I somehow doubt a cupcake who has played video games for 5 years is going to do any kind of labor job without A)Dropping dead by lunch on the first day or B) Getting fired by lunch on the first day
But yes, labor is easy to get into. Literally stand outside a Home Depot Contractor door at 6am and someone will offer you 75-100 dollars to come labor for the day
>>80869306
Maki is shit.
>>80869281
>>80869306
>suicide
I figured that was my only option. There is just that little hope left in me that prevents me from going all the way.
>>80869692
I'm in the same situation. So long without any working, contacts, or even social interaction has left me basically fucking retarded. It's either suicide or the military since I can't even drive either. I guess you could possibly get autism bux if you prove you're fucked up enough too.
>>80869306
I'm too mentally ill to join the army. I can't risk stopping the medication that keeps me from hearing shit and becoming the ones keeping me from being a depressed suicidal piece of shit.
Should have just stayed a heroin addict. Now I'm on 11 pills a day and feel like garbage.
With dope, I was functional and felt great.
Go and study for a trade job.
>>80869132
>Red Pill me on getting a job as a 5+ NEET.
You already have a large gap in your life, how do you explain that to your employer?
The red pill is that you should accept welfare money when you're that fucked up.
>>80869132
8+ year neet here
>>80870553
Post greentext on how you got in that situation.
>>80870553
Good lord....
why did you guys chose to be neet?
Is it possible to escape NEETdom if one hasn't worked a day in his life and has never found a job if he's studying at 24?
>>80871958
i didn't choose to be a neet the neet chose to be me
NEET here
Give me some job ideas bros or what should I look up on craigslist?
>>80871958
I'm an social retard who gets sick in social situations. I can't even hang out with my own family without my mind racing on how not to look stupid in front of them. I can kind of act normal when I have too but most people can see right through me with enough time. I figure a construction job would be good because I would be focus on the work rather than socializing. It seems to be one of those no nonsense, get back to work, kind of job.
As an update: I Googled the telephone number and found the company. Weird that they didn't even put their own company name in the end. I digress. The company, according to this one website, says they have less than a dozen employees. I doubt they would ever let someone like me on the team. Such a small business would want their team members to socialize and become good friends. I really just want to work, do a good job to the best of my ability according to my boss' instruction and go home.
>>80869132
your best bet is to learn a trade or a craft, college has too much liberal niggatry and working your way up from a minimum wage job at something like a retail or kitchen is too difficult, too much corruption and inflation in today's world. that's not an excuse though to still not make it out on your own.
>>80872526
> I doubt they would ever let someone like me on the team.
You're right. Go for a fast food job. Socializing is kept at a minimum and you can take your break alone at a table while you eat your meal and chill on your phone.
>>80872450
I have been looking around the Internet and I found this website. It seems exhaustive and up-to-date.

>>80872752
Thanks.
I have a masters degree in math but have never had a real job and just want to do something easy and stress free
>>80872752
all this website is:
>come wipe old peoples asses
>come drive a truck
>sell knives n shieeeeeeeettttt
literally worthless. go to monster or dice
>>80872891
Sorry. It seemed good for my area. Thanks for the other websites.

Night shift job at the grocery store near me stocking shelves from 11pm - 7am.
15$ an hour seems pretty comfy
>>80869132
Which is the better trade, electrician or IT tech?
>>80873040
there are a lot of aspects you need to think about to work well.
>appearance
>demeanor
>wit
>growth potential
>tenacity
If you really want a job, start with researching how to better yourself.
Read Dale Carnegie's how to win friends and influence people.
Have the testicles to think your life is worth making richer and people will recognize your drive and take you on.
>>80873199
IT you can grow
Electrician you'll retire doing the same job 40 years from now.
>>80873157
This aint too bad of an idea desu. I have a 24 hour grocery store near me and its dead from about 12-5am. They just have 2-3 guys there and normally they just sit there playing cards all night while customers check themselves out at the self checkout. Kind of pisses me off but I always get the 5 finger discount on a few things while they do so I guess it works out.
I'm starting a new job next week working security at a hospital. It may not be the most glamorous or well paying job in the world, but at least it's a job.
And I've never been a NEET in my life, thankfully.
>>80873199
I don't have many facts but I know a few general trends:
IT, maybe easier to get into right now and more jobs. You will be less likely to get cucked by unions or boom bust of the construction cycle.
On the flip side more and more IT jobs get outsourced to india and you have more people to compete with in the marketplace. There is also a hard cap on your salary in IT (because the field is so saturated, you wont have your own business, not much upward mobility)
As an electrician you have much greater earnings potential, especially in the long run if you end up owning your own business

be careful with nightshift work, it can really mess with your hormones and your gall bladder has important secretion functions that only happen when your asleep between 11-2 at night. you might laugh at me but its changed friends, they literally are not the same person :\

Ya I would imagine the manager or others are rarely around except the start or end of the shift so it would be low stress.
>>80873864
hmmmm. Ya I already have some health problems (an autoimmune disease) and it gives me problems sleeping and exhaustion at odd times.
I quit the college I was at, was awful
But if someone as fucked and lazy as I am can get a job and a decent girl , you have no excuse

> lead cook at a popular bar

>>80874334
autoimmune diseases are caused by foreign proteins being in your blood stream, which means your stomach acid isn't strong enough to digest and break down protein before it enters your intestines - so your bile is probably thick too. stop eating wheat, barley, rye, oats, fried foods, burnt fats, and eat 1 lb of vegetables/fruits per 50 pounds of body weight. take 1 spoonful of apple cider vinegar in a cup of water before a meal to enhance stomach acid. do water fasting, breathing, and praying/meditation is optional. i lost over 100 pounds and healed my asthma. check out dr wallach. love brother.

Six months of applying for jobs and can't find shit.
"Go to college, you need skills" they told me.
So I went to college.
"Get a STEM degree" they told me
So I got a STEM degree.
A few more months later still applying for jobs and can't find any.
"A CS degree isn't enough. You have to show you know how to program."
So I wrote my own Android app and put it up on the store and put that on my resume.
Yet more months go by, still can't find a job.
"You need to design a personal webpage. That will get the attention of employers."
So I made a webpage, and added that to the resume.
Going on a year unemployed now...
Contemplating suicide
you guys should look into stuff you can do from home from your pc. coding, graphics, etc.
i'm lazy and don't really have any other skills so i started doing transcription (basically just typing all day, typing out conversations in video/audio files)
it means i'm technically self employed, but it doesn't feel like work. the pay is pretty shit and obviously you only earn as much as you can be bothered to, but if you were going to be sat on the PC all day anyway it's not too bad, and its something you can put on your CV to explain the gaps
i'm just doing it until i can find an apprenticeship in something i'm interested in. uni is the other route, but i just dont see that happening

Does working retail count as being a NEET?
I'm making 11.70/hr soon to be 12.70 with 32 hour work weeks
Better than nothing I suppose
>>80872526
They're just a small business, it's worth a shot.
But fast food, gas station, and retail.
Wal-mart will hire you, go work the stocking shift. I doubt there's any socializing then.
Labor would be good for you if you're a neet, most of y'all are out of shape.
>>80875650
>where are you looking?
bay area. Can't tell if I'm just shit, or if the tech jobs are fleeing the state, or if they just saving money hiring Kumar.
Probably all three...
>you should have interned at microsoft
Nah you gotta be one of those autistic 13 year old hackers to get an internship at microsoft.
>>80876056
No. You're actually employed.
Not in
Education,
Employment, or

>>80876233

lol dude just do lyft and sell lsd to your passengers. trust me from experience.

>>80869132
You can be a construction laborer, just be honest about what you know and what you dont know or you could hurt yourself or someone else.
They will most likely have you hauling rubble for a long while and slowly but surely they will introduce you to new tasks.
Keep up your spirits Op, there is no job position to low.
I graduated high school 2 years ago, so far been fired from 3 seperate jobs all before passing probation period, so as far as employers are concerned I'm at best 2 years unemployed, at worst a massive red flag.
Not even bothering to look for a new job because I got really depressed after the third one.
Anyone want to rob a bank with me? I have nothing to lose at this point in my life.
>>80875488
I feel you.
Let's face it. The system is fucked. They tell you to go to college to waste our time. When we're done we have a useless piece of paper because employers also need someone with "more experience." If I can't get experience in my field cause they won't hire me, where the hell else can I get it. OK I need a job regardless, I'll scrape the bottom of the barrel. Fast food, retail, etc. Apply, employer looks you have a degree, thinks, what the fuck is wrong is this nigger doing, is he trolling. Pass
We were lied to all our lives anon.
>>80876233
Have you tried looking in Austin or Seattle as well?
Also Waterloo canada is great if you are willing to move. I did my masters in math there and the town has about a million tech startups all desperate to hire
>>80869132
also dont worry about your social anxiety. This will go away when your confidence builds and the best way to build confidence is to achieve something worth while in your life.
>>80876284
What uncivilized country has such working conditions?
>>80871958
Basically my dad is an alcoholic and his tantrums fucked up my studies. I dropped out and tried to make it big as a real estate agent in Hongcouver but that failed too. I've sent resumes to literally 100 places and only had one response and it was from an MLM. Poo in loos are imported here at a regular basis and it's hard to even become a security guard. It's going to take 20 days for the license to come because every Poo decides to take the course.
So that's why I'm a NEET virgin at 21 and a half. Life is suffering. At least I'm not black.
I'm a 2 year NEET but technically I started an LLC and I'm CEO. I released two iPhone games and made $300 (they were shit). Can I put my own failed company on my resume or is that retarded?
If you have an employment gap in your CV just lie and make something up.
Literally everyone does it. I did it too. Just said some shit about traveling and volunteering abroad, teaching english to foreign kids blah blah.
>>80869132
I WOULD give you a job to promote my company/brand online and get more customers on my website except I don't trust ANYONE on 4japz.
If you can come up with a good way to ease my mistrust issues, you're on.

Yup, I do the same thing.
Just say I worked for a company that one of my friends own so if they call for a referral shit will pan out.
>>80869132
Fuck it man. At this point I'm content exercising, eating pb&j and listening to oasis to fill in my afternoon. Work is fucking gay.
>>80876898

Fresh NEET here.
I just graduated highschool, i've been out of school for about 2 months i've applied at about 5 places, no calls back from any of them.
I've even went as far as to go to the place(s) and ask if they've looked at my application, to which im usually met with "what's your name?" "oh okay, we will give you a call" No call yet.
And in all honesty, i'm 19, i have not worked any official jobs (i do freelance tile work with my uncle when he needs help, and he pays me if im in need of money, but its under the table)
I really, really, REALLY would prefer not to work in fast food, although i know id be guaranteed a job and 7.25, but i'd loathe it.
Ideally, i want a retail job, or some grocery store job, but again i feel like my lack of real work experience is holding me back.
I need a decent job soon though, to hold me over for the next few months before i sign up for the army.
Any advice non-NEETs? Am i doing something wrong? Help!
>>80877094
Even better: find companies that have gone out of business or merged with other companies. Then fill your resume with those.
I'm not suggesting this (illegal)

Retail jobs are for College graduates, you're not qualified
>>80871958
you hate yourself and think that you can't contribute to society in any meaningful way
>>80877224
If you think your lack of experience is holding you back, just lie on your resume that you have previously held a retail or grocery store job.
Preferably in a different city so it is not easy for them to verify.
References and past employment history are never checked for low level jobs anyway.

>>80877224
deliver pizzas
you'll make more than minimum wage and its a great way to smoke weed and eat pizza during your shift
Lie on your CV.
Add a couple of years extra in College, but it can't be related to what you're hoping to work with, because then they'll ask more about it.
Then add a few years where you traveled and worked at home.
Most employers won't care and will probably find you just as interesting as someone who had worked a shitty job for 5 years in a row.

>>80877770
what race are you
>>80869132
>no cash
>no job
>no future
lol the advanced NEET knows how to repair vehicles and electronics and build is own home and generate his own power, and pump his own water
because the NEET learns what he feels like learning. he learns things he is actually interested in
and he learns them on his own time for free.
the advanced NEET is immune to wagecuck fears of no more wage, no more job and no "future" (wagecuck slavery plan)
the advanced NEET understands more than any wagecuck and can outlive over 9000 wagecucks
the advanced NEET as actual knowledge and skill while the wagecuck is only pretending.
the wagecuck has a false sense of security
the wagecuck is fed a monthly check, and a large number makes the wagecuck happy.
this keeps the wagecuck out of important issues and thinking about important things.
this keeps the wagecuck out of the NEETs way
Are you guys fucking retards?
Just tell your employer you were off at floundering around looking for what to do college and it didn't work out. That is a socially acceptable answer

>>80877224
at this point you ought to experiment with some totally fake resumes. make yourself look really appealing. experience, some education, long periods with same company.
it's what I ended up doing after years unemployed. some jobs check our your claims, but many just go by how you interview.
seriously.
1 more question, anyone here know anything about security guard jobs?
>>80872526
>I doubt they would ever let someone like me on the team
Stop over thinking it faggot. Try it out and if it ain't you then it ain't you but at least get some fucking experience. You guys think this shit way too fucking hard, it's not helping you out. Sometimes you have just got to just dive right in or else you'll always be apprehensive to jump.
Do you neets even have drivers licenses?
If you want to get out of neethood you need to make some connections, make some friends who can get you into a job or better yet if you have family members who can do that, have them call in a few favors. With the right connections, job history doesn't matter, just your performance once you start working.

>>80878339
you are correct. NEETs should even look into their aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, and other extended family for connections. even if a relative retired years ago, they can still, in many cases, pull some strings and get you a job.
of course a lot of NEETs struggle with more than just finding employment, i think a lot of NEETs battle with anxiety and emotional issues. but a huge amount of these compound once you go NEET. obviously your self esteem will be shit-tier if you're an unemployed 20 something with no prospects for the future.

I got a job at a call center in April after being NEET for 3 years. I get paid $12 and its full time, in august it goes to $14. We also get new shifts then and I'm worried my new shift is going to be harder but I'm still going to try my hardest
One thing that sucks is there's a lot of niggers and degenerates that work there. Also they expect us to keep our call times below a 7min daily average and if one person says they weren't satisfied on the survey we get in trouble. But I try my best everyday and I feel blessed I got a job that lets me sit down and be in the AC.
I would say if you're a NEET the most important thing is not to get bent out of shape about it. Job or no job, there's always stress in life. Don't let people beat you down about it and just live everyday as good as you can
But if you do want a job, don't get discouraged they're out there you just have to try. And dressing nicely will really help because most people in the world these days are covered in tattoos or have stupid colored hair or don't know how to dress... Etc... You can beat them out even if you're NEET by just acting like a professional adult.

Can't really say anything about construction, but if the job ad doesn't mention anything about previous experience or qualifications, I think you should go for it anyway. Call them and ask them about it. If you can showcase motivation and a positive attitude with willingness to learn, I think there is a chance.
Also, someone once gave me the advice to drop this attitude of "but they probably don't want someone like me, I'm not good enough, they'll want to hire a lot more skilled people". Just send your application and let the employer decide whether you could be worth hiring. You can't succeed if you lack the courage to try, so don't let your fear become the obstacle that prevents you from getting a job. If it doesn't work out, at least you'll get some experience that can help you with your later job applications.

Get something that requires certification. I went through a life guarding class when I was 16 and literally everywhere I applied accepted me almost instantly. I got my first job in the field and it payed a sweet 20-25$ an hour for a seasonal summer job. The full timers and superiors made even more some getting impressive yearly salaries, would recommend.
>>80879234
you should read some books on investing. for real, dude. you can't just leave that money in the bank. if you're afraid of a habbening it's not like the bank is the best place to keep the money. and neither is keeping it in your house. be reasonable.
the most important thing is diversifying your investments though. i was lucky in that my relatives taught me how to invest but if you're not without that luxury you need to read some books, dude. and start investing sooner rather than later.
inflation happens, bro. and the bank's interest doesn't make up for it,.

Yeah I'm living with my mom. City's drab as hell, and it rained like an inch yesterday despite being July. I'm seeing more and more Poo in loos everyday. Some of the ones born here are alright but most of the men are regards and most of the women are ugly as hell. (One cutie stole my heart though. 9/10 and a very good personality. Her asshole dad didn't want her going out with a white boy. Her current bf beats her.) The new immigrants are all Fucking garbage. They walk around like they own the place and are rude to everyone. All memes aside I did meet this one based old Sikh man who hates his fellow Poo in loos more than me. Anyway that's my tale.

my family members who taught me investing praised warren buffet's books although i have no idea how relevant those are today
the most important thing is, again, diversifying. don't put all your eggs in one basket. if we're talking like upwards of $1 mil you NEED to invest it, inflation means you're basically losing money by not investing it somewhere. i had one family member invest in a nice property that is still churning out cash for me and my family decades later. i had another family member put a lot into mutual funds that accrued hundreds of thousands of dollars over time.
i would say read whatever investing books are popular on amazon or something, but my family always praised buffet
>>80869132
Keep applying ... you'll eventually get a job if you want to. Its not really that hard....
>>80879810
i refer you to the post i just made >>80879892
namely that my family members who invested always praised buffet but, again, i have no idea how relevant that is in today's day and age. i'm sure it helped my family members get started decades ago but i cannot vouch for how relevant it is now.
so i would read some of buffet's books but also whatever was on the top selling list at amazon or somewhere like that.

The best thing you can do is buy houses and rent them out.
It's physical, in your hands and there's no negative stigma by having your savings locked into something most people won't or are afraid of signing away to.
Personally I live minimum, I have no phone or anything that wastes expenses other than a gym membership. I buy a big box of wheetbix and it lasts me a month ($5).
Save ALL your cash, live at home, GET JOB, read random stuff that will advance you above the plebs, become educated without going into a university. You have the internet.

You sound exactly like me. I've been dropping in and out of jobs and school for years. Every time I get something going for myself, my head starts fucking with me so badly from all the physical, emotional, and sexual abuse I went through growing up that I all but have a mental breakdown and can't maintain a goddamn thing.
I thought I had a perfect job for me for several months. I was working overnight in a bread depot. I loved that I was active constantly during work and didn't have to put up with other people's bullshit all the time. I was building muscle and losing weight and feeling good, until I started getting shooting pain down my leg, and my shoulders kept dislocating on the job. I can hardly stay on my feet for a couple of hours at this point. At 25.
Currently I'm looking at finding work as a receptionist for some doctor in my local hospital. I know it's probably beta as all fuck, but my options are exhausted. I can't deal with call center work. That makes me want to an hero even more than I already want to every day.
Become a saint or artist
You can spend all the time you want bettering yourself, but every single person I know got their job through nepotism--they knew the person hiring, or they knew somebody in the company. Sometimes it's an insanely long chain of nepotism. Five people in my circle of friends started working at the same place. They all referred each other. Nobody wants anti-social captain autismo literally who. The draw of the familiar is too strong. The fact that they're not ideal for the position doesn't even factor in. The cohesiveness of the unit is considered entirely more important. If just because you're forced to spend 160 hours a month with them.

I was thinking about military, but having seen what our military has been used for, I don't think I should spend my life helping terrorism.
My other option was suicide, but since I still live with my father and grandparents, I can't do it. I don't give a shit about my own life, but I do give a shit about scarring my family. I couldn't do that to them.

Depending on the labor, it's not so bad, just extremely soul-draining.
Woke up early in the morning making and loading $700 worth of firewood trailers for 4 days straight. If I had no soul I could have done this forever, it's not so bad on the body. You need water and food all throughout the day and you can work nonstop, pretty much. As long as you dont have to lift super heavy shit all day long, manual labor anyone can do if they completely stop thinking. I only did it so I could have a month's worth of NEETing in my mom's basement.

This is excellent advice. Buy a home and rent it. You have potential capital appreciation on the property and reliable income by renting.
This is safe and smart and buys you time to get back on your feet. Plus you can even create a LLC for your rental investments so you're self employed on a resume.

2 year NEET here.
Not being able to drive (narcolepsy) is no excuse for this. But having to forever have your parents drive you to work, or walk (When half the year is a winter wonderland) is always fun. I could move to an urban area and be close enough to everything to walk. I could get a car to drive extremely short distances but paying for gas/insurance/car payments seems like a waste for such little things, and god forbid I nod off at the wheel once and crash into a pole.
I could try and work at home with an IT job. My dad does it. I could go to a tech school, and then work from home. At least with that I could think about moving out. But again, the no driving thing sucks. Is living with parents that bad? They'll never get grandkids that way. But then again, wouldn't the grandkids have narcolepsy as well potentially? I don't want to spread it on to a new generation. I'd have to get a date first and I have social anxiety. Also, sex would be fun because of my mild cataplexy.
Sure, I have a bipolar narcissist parent with anger problems but I can't blame my own problems on that. People who've had far worse problems and harder lives have succeeded. So why can't I? I want a "normal" life, but what is normal? Everyone has their own demons to fight. Reminds me of the time I was a little kid wondering why "daddy was screaming at mommy". Ah, life moves so fast.
I could say at least I'm "redpilled". At least I don't commit crimes, don't do drugs (meth/coke), ect. But not doing bad doesn't mean you're doing good. And being a NEET isn't a positive.
I don't know anymore to be honest. I'm thinking about just going with the tech school/online classes, and working from home. I'd be working, and making money which is better than what I'm doing now. (Nothing.)
>>80869132
I do not believe that you need a degree to get into Welding or working on the Railroad.
Seems these are certification type things, but you're going to have to do probably 2 years of it to get in and you're going to need to ask people associated with that (likely in person) if you want to.
You know those guys who drive around on the railroad or you see em inspecting something out there... you could be one of those guys. I bet they get paid 15+.
Someone else on here in Welding says he makes 6 figures. I know welders frequently get paid 40 per hour but depending on the opportunities it could be feast and famine. If you did get in on that, and was willing to move, I bet you could make six figures like that guy too.
Both of these fields will require good Memorization (or okay studying habits at least), and good Manual Dexterity for welding.
Another option is Trucking - make 16-20 per hour driving all day long. Youll need to go to Trucking school and youll need good Memory to pass the tests (I failed them). Puts you in a good position to meet online hookups and being a Trucker is kinda a turnon.
None of these 3 jobs will ever go obsolete. Least not for the next 100 years. None of them require college.

I recently got back into being a NEET.
My last job ended after I learned they were doing tons of illegal shit and if I told anyone I'd go down with them, so I just quit.
>>80872185
It's possible. Everything's just harder the longer you go on.
>>80869132
Applied for construction. It means either be white with foreman experience, a felon who can't afford not to have a job, or an illegal who will do it for less.
If you're white, go to a temp agency. I've been to a few and they streamline me and in my current one I was a supervisor in three months.
I haven't worked in over a year.
But today I did have a job interview at Win Dixie. They're thinking of putting me on Produce and some hibbie jobbie on cashier. Only part time tho. Still, it'd be great if I could buy a MAGA hat.
>>80886220
I've never thought to put DOB on a CV.
When is a gap too much and needs to be explained?
What if you've had loads of short-term part-time jobs that are kinda the same?
Any why not report earlier than 15 mins to an interview?
Do you have a example CV you consider good?
Thanks
>>80886106
This also include automation. To the people talking about truck driving you are fucked.
>>80869132
Just go down to the construction site, walk up to the foreman, look him in the eye and give him a firm handshake. Not only will he give you a job then and there, but he will also give you the hand of his daughter.
>>80869132
100% serious construction is super duper easy to get into. If you have no experience doing anything, you can pick any random trade (I would look into what you think does the easiest work [hint: It's data companies], not what has the highest pay average) and then just apply, apply, apply. You will make slightly above minimum wage, but it's guaranteed 40 hours a week, weather pending.
Good luck anon.

Nice, I signed up for level 1 and 2 evening welding courses at a local college, it's free with no previous requirements at all, it starts in September and lasts about 14 weeks. As someone with almost no qualifications it sounds like a good choice desu, I want to move abroad eventually too.

>I've never thought to put DOB on a CV.
as an employer you need to know as much about a person as possible and age is critical in gauging experience against freshness. They know if you are old or young when they meet/talk to you anyway, so don't hide it.
>When is a gap too much and needs to be explained?
Depends, if you a Uni leaver and you have 2-3 months without explanation then this looks strange. At 30+ anything a over 6months to a year needs explaining. Otherwise it is easy to assume you are trying to hide something and no employer wants to take on an employee who might be evasive. Generally the older you are and the looser your profession (freelancer, designer), the more you can get away with.
>What if you've had loads of short-term part-time jobs that are kinda the same?
That's fine, just explain it, don't assume that it isn't important, someone might find that interesting or a problem. Either case, honesty is very important to me and I expect to most employers.
>Any why not report earlier than 15 mins to an interview?
It can be annoying. I have PA and when someone comes in for an interview she usually lets me know and it adds an amount of subconscious pressure on me which annoys the fuck out of me and I doubt I am unique. Also it makes them look a little bit loserish. Further, it can be a burden to look after someone for 30 mins or longer by a reception when your PA/receptionist is busy. I would recommend arriving early BUT just don't report in too early.
>
>Do you have a example CV you consider good?

yes, just look for online transcription companies, apply through their site, or find an email contact and let them know you are a freelance transcriptionist looking for work
rev is like the mcdonalds of transcription. you'll have strict deadlines, bad pay (as low as around $0.40 per audio minute transcribed) shit audio quality most of the time, people constantly grading your work (sometimes wrongly), and metrics that you have to keep up in order to get the "best" files. you also have to compete with others on a marketplace-type system where the first one to claim a job gets it.
>>80886088
yeah i found out from someone on here too
>>80886518
>>80887527
just google transcription companies and try your luck. they'll probably give you some test files to do.

I have two degrees and want to use the tsa as a stepping stone to other agencies. Also go fuck yourself trying to bring honest people down like that.
29 yr ol NEET here for 5+ years! Living in the Deep South and looking like a tranny doesn't work to well :( But I'm really a hard worker tho, long ago when I had a job my boss use to say he wish he had 5 more like me.
Would join the navy but I don't want to cut my hair :/ Rarely get call backs from anywhere I throw apps at. Rip world :3
3 year NEET here. I had a retail job last year and I felt ashamed to be working there, like I was too old for it even though I was only 2 years out of high school and a lot of my coworkers were older than me. I've realized the only proper way to proceed as a NEET is to become a self-made entrepreneur. You don't have any student loans so you've already got a head start on most people. Now treat everyday like an opportunity to make money and connections. If you aspire for a shitty retail or grocery job, that's what you'll get.
>>80869132
Good luck, I swear jobs have disappeared again. Obama was going on about how more jobs are around and there were more in my area but now nobody can find work. Owner of my old company died and his kids decided to liquidate the company instead of keeping it going. I'm 25 with 6 years of sales experience and a degree in business and I can't find work either. At first I thought it was bad luck but I'm starting to panic. I can't just move back in with my parents because I have 6 months left on my dumbass lease. Already sold my motorcycle for rent.
It's shit too because all of my friends who can help are either working fast food or trying to find jobs. I don't get it...where did all the God damn jobs go this last year?
>>80882595
I don't know what you're babbling about with your 'shutting your brain off' and then complaining about it being soul draining work. I think you're a lazy little fucker coming up with excuses why you didn't like real work.
Most people, when faced with a task that does not require them to think don't just shut their brain off. It doesn't even make any sense to do so. When you're watching a bullshit movie or stuck listening to some moron babble on and on THAT is when you shut your brain down.
When you've got nothing that needs thinking about and you're already doing something THAT is the time to let your mind wander, do some serious thinking, entertain your damn self.
Saying that physical labor requires being soul less or shutting down your brain seems like the you projecting liberal bullshit onto people who work with their hands for a living. They're not stupid, they're not slow and just because you have a lazy brain that shuts down when not presented with flashing lights doesn't mean that they do.
When I want to think something through or am stuck for a solution I generally do the dishes. Or vacuum. Something I don't have to really think about where there is nothing to entertain me so that I am free to think without distraction.
>manual labor anyone can do if they completely stop thinking. I only did it so I could have a month's worth of NEETing in my mom's basement.
"The reason I failed at yet another thing was because I'm like too smart and esoteric for, like, physical labor. It's super easy but I just, like, require more of an intellectual challenge"
That's you. That's what you sound like, you lazy fucker.

>tfw wish I was a neet again
None of this matters anyways lads.
all I got to say to this thread and neets here. Your not guaranteed a high paying job in life. There are 20-60 year olds working shit jobs. 70% of this planet is poor. So don't be a woe is me depressant faggot if you are working a manual labor job.

Hmm thanks. I'll need to think about it. I work sometimes poorly under pressure. Do they watch you work kinda thing? I'm happy to work fast but not while someone directly watching me.
Are the test files hard?

No your the faggot that has the elliot rodger perspective on life that u deserve a BMW millionare dollar home and steady girlfriend you sex regularly. Real life has never ever been a disney movie fairy tale and its time you millenial neets deal with it besides being gigantic faggots.
>>80890631
dont worry nobody is directly watching you, i just meant grading as in they proofread it afterwards
i think there are plenty of companies out there, and its not like you have any obligations because its freelance
test files could be tricky, thats why they send them to you. probably wont be longer than 5-10 mins max though
>>80869132
why did you even decide to do nothing for 5 years after school?
didn't you even think of your future?

There's only two jobs I got without nepotism. This is a sad truth.
At the same time, I don't blame small businesses for going by it, since they're being fucked over.
The biggest problem is how entrepreneurship is becoming even more difficult. Can't find a job? Make one, but making one is nearly impossible with all these taxes and licences.

terrible advice. current interest is 2%. if anons father dying gave her 1-2m, she could be collecting 10-20k/year in interest just for leaving the money in her bank/savings/CD.
assuming he also left her the property deed, her property tax would be, well mine is 7,000 usd / year (seattle. fucking. kills. me.) and she would qualify for food stamps (i do) earning me 200/month. you have to be stupid or hedonistic to not survive on 13k a year after rent/property tax.
>apply for a search engine evaluator
>study your ass off for the exam
>get hired and do work that no one else wants to do for $13 an hour
Appen and bridgestone are almost always hiring. If you can find shitposting, tou can find an internet job. Cambly and other English tutor sites aren't bad either. Having to resort to mturk is nigger-tier.

>>80869132
A construction laborer basically means youre a temp and do unskilled labor for a fraction of what the guys who are part of the company do. If you suck they'll fire you, if you're good you'll do semi skill work but at the same rate. Might pay you $12/hour to do what guys who are making $30+ do
Whatever job you do just use it as a networking tool to get someone better and keep doing that til you are actually making a good wage. Every person you meet can help you get ahead in life if you work it right.

good advice from this guy
im currently working for $12 an hour at a local rural airport, just for the summer, before i leave for college
i was a neet for several years before this.
most of the work is just physical labor but i brought up that im a tech guy and i've found myself giving tech help for some things around the airport.
since most of the people who fly in are rich as fuck, or the sons of rich as fuck parents, i can easily meet job creators who may need someone like me, and they all know my boss very well, and my boss likes very much that im able to do all of this shit at work for him.
i wouldnt be surprised if i end up working for one of these rich fucks at some tech company after college.

Same with me, but i managed to turn it around. As a child i saw the same thing happening to a few friends and i realised i gotta get a career going. Currently learning Javascript, C++, C#, Python and ruby while in a course at a mid-tier uni. More software dev jobs are being made currently so i should be good.
>>80892081
depends on the type of application process, they will probably just give you some files and say, "read up on our guidelines, transcribe these test files for us and send back in the next 7 days"
it wont be anything massive. just to make sure you arent some philipino with a poor command of the english language

He's right. Women work the cushiest jobs, barely work, yet still get ahead because they're wanted more over males just because they're a fuck hole or bubbly.
Take retail for example.
>First job(s) years ago when I was 18/19
>Retail
>Had to work stockroom because male but also not the most attractive (wasn't terrible, just dorky)
>Bust my ass in the back doing physical work
>Girls just stood around the register texting on their phones, chatting, watching the clock, complaining that the store is cold or boring
>Barely did any hard work, as their job just involved talking to customers and telling them to swipe their credit cards
>One comes back from break giving the rest of their circlejerk iced coffees from starbucks
>They sipped at the counters texting more
>Only two guys in the back, me and some discount-aisle Mexican nobody can relate with.
>The girls got ahead for their jobs looking much better on their resumes for dealing with people, skills that really didn't exist, etc.
Also, don't give me that bullshit where those girls probably made less. Stock room and such made minimum. They either made more or the same as us.
>>80878339
Pretty much. I was NEET for 7 years and I'm employed right now(part-time $9 an hour and only been doing it 3 months, but it's something and I may get full-time in a few months) because the husband of a woman my mom used to work with hooked me up with a job at the park he's assistant manager of it.
It's kinda soul-crushing and I have to deal with a lot of idiots but it's easy as fuck and I won't be an automatic red flag if I go looking for another job. One of the other part-time guys there has said he'll probably be able to hook me up at another place he works at in a few months too. Two part-time jobs will be something at least.

I'm in almost the same situation. Also 26, no work experience, the only people I'm really close with are my parents and I've almost no social contacts whatsoever otherwise. The only difference is that I have a Bachelor's degree but it's completely worthless. What's really depressing to me is the fact that I tried very hard to make something out of myself. People say "Go to school, get a degree and you will do well in life" but the truth is there seems to be no recipe for success in life. I did all that and it never worked out for me. I'm just getting older and older collecting useless degrees while not getting any actual experience may it be work or life related. I've never given up and always put a lot of effort into everything I do, but I feel like I'm already burned out even though I've never had a fulltime job.
Currently trying to get a degree in CS which is very hard since I'm shit at math. I will be about 30 when I finish it, so I don't think it will amount to much but what else can I do...

terrible advise. do not turn your central bank money into bitcoin. https://www.irs.gov/uac/newsroom/irs-virtual-currency-guidance
yes i know my advise seems ludacris. yes you could make millions. and yes, the government could say nope.
>>80894552
I keep trying to explain this to the older generations of my family and they just don't fucking get it, so I'm slowly trying to help educate my younger family members not yet in college. The world has changed for students of the native populations of first world nations. This isn't the 60's, 70's, 80's anymore. Everything is so different now than it was then.
My grandmother told me a story of how her son, my father, asked her when he was my age "what should I study to make a lot of money". She pointed him to an engineering degree. So he did that. Then my turn comes up and I asked my dad a similar question. And what does he, the typical boomer (the generation that ruined fucking everything) tell me?
>"Just follow your dreams :^) Do what makes you happy :^))))"
You can't buy gas or make a down payment on a house with fucking dreams. Thank god I didn't actually listen to that retarded advice and I pursued an engineering degree myself. My generation has been thrown in a system where the world is basically against them, and our universities have these quotas that neither our parents or grandparents had to deal with. Corporations and government agencies don't recruit like they used to. So much is being outsourced. You have to have connections or be insanely fucking gifted to land a job that a company would have begged for you to take only a few decades ago.
I'm fortunate. I got a nice job because of sheer luck, but I seriously feel bad for people in my own generation who bought into the bullshit shoved down their throats by boomers who took their easy life for granted.
I'm not going to sugarcoat it. Being unemployed for 2+ years after the age of 24 is almost a death sentence. Without knowing someone at that point the chances of you getting anything above part-time $8 an hour are very low.
Apply everywhere. Any old shit job you can physically handle. Flip burgers if you have to. Don't be picky and take anything you're offered. Work there for at a minimum of six months before you look elsewhere. Bust your fucking ass off and impress your bosses as best you can. You don't have the luxury of slacking off because long-term unemployment + being fired means you may as well kill yourself or find someone to leech off the rest of your life.
Save as much money as you can and invest it. Despite your social ineptitude or whatever I like to think a good deal of you are smart enough to figure out how to make a decent chunk off playing the market. Not enough to make a living but to give you some extra cash. I will say though that doing so requires putting a good amount of effort into research and keeping an eye on it. There are a couple of pretty good apps out there, look into them.
Why don't you NEETs join the military?

How would you feel of setting up a skype group or something where we can kind of support each other in things, or just vent?
Similar situation too
hey faggots
lie on your resumes, it's the only reason I ever got employed, lie on your resumes, how sad it is that we are at that point now, where we have to lie about experience to get a job.
there literally is no other choice but to lie, they created this system, so take advantage of it, fuck their stupid bullshit requirements
if they call you out on your bullshit, make up stories, if they find out it's all lies, fucking move to another company and lie some more. fuck their stupid bullshit up guys, fuck this stupid ass system
