Is it true that you basically can't get a job in the US if you're a really introverted guy?

Yeah, a lot of companies actually look for online presence when they're looking at your application. But let's say that's a small part of the selection process, even then you'll have to be good at talking to the interviewers. It's retarded as hell.

I got a job as an introvert desu senpai

It actually helped me a lot and I'm less introverted now. I got the job through my mom though and I was a total sperg during the interview.
>>
Not really. It makes it harder, but really you're just giving yourself excuses.
>>

Eh, they wont choose you because you don't have facebook or twitter.

Linkedin is what they look for if it's a professional job
>>
Yep, it's true. It's their "red flag" so to speak. If you are introverted, then to them, you're a manic murderer who wants to rape children and dig up corpses just to fuck them.

>warehouse work
>delivery driver

Two jobs I can think of that I had that required little to no social interaction.
>>
I'm sitting in a chair in some back room at a spa waiting to check in my next guest. They get a massage, maybe hop in the steam room, or some shit and leave faster than their wives/girlfriends made them come. Few gays trying to poke my button hole every now and then, but otherwise it's a cool gig for college.
>>
you should just give up on life if you're introverted
>>
>>24054068
True, but things are changing.
>this guy only has a LinkedIn, what a weirdo
>this guy has a LinkedIn and is active in social media, he seems like he's better with handling others
My dad fits into the former category. It's shithard for him to find a job anymore, even though the niggas got experience out the ass compared to the newcomers.

>you're just giving yourself excuses.

I'm from Yurop, I was just wondering because most job seeking advise on the net from Americans emphasized the importance of being sociable, networking and what not.
>>
>>24054092
Just because the job requires little to no social interaction doesn't mean that the people handling the applications/interviews/hiring won't expect you to be an extrovert. A huge part of the problem with employment is how hiring is generally handled in a way that has nothing to do with the job itself by human resources people who also have nothing to do with the job itself.
>>
If you're decently attractive sometimes a fat/ugly female manager will hire you only on that basis.

It happened to me, I think. I couldn't do cashiering and I stopped going to work after only like 2 weeks.
>>
>>24053977
Im really fucking introverted and i have a job
>>
>introverted

STOP. This word does not mean "socially retarded pussy".
>>
>>24054285
you don't get it, just fucking leave normie
