I got a job making around $50k (+/-) after a year of unemployment. But it's white collar shit and I was right out of college.

...You're not interviewing for salad artist at a meme cafe, are you?

Why the fuck is it so hard for everyone to find jobs?
>>
>>27661296

Practice your half smile in the mirror. Interviews are awkward for the interviewer as well. Keep that eye contact strong. They are looking for reliable, on-time, honest people.

If they ask of your recent gap in employment, you might say that you took time off to travel, schooling, or self-study. Best of luck to ya

If you fit in with the bro/techie/gamer culture, you'll do fine as a software engineer/programmer. If you have a heavy accent, you might have a little trouble. If you're born in the US and/or speak fluent English, no problem.

I mean.. even with a heavy accent, if they can understand you, you make jokes, smile, are likeable, you'll do fine.

Meh.

I had a job interview about a week ago and the guy kept asking different versions of the same question. It was kind of annoying but I didn't spill my spaghetti. I was running out of ways to answer it though.

congrats

you are unemployable

I am almost 10 years

people have applied for me saying I was full of shit and have failed to even get me an interview
>>
>>27661296

A word of advice anon. Almost any good employer will have their mind made up before the interview. So just don't fuck up too much at that point and you'll be fine.
>>

It's a shittest, the proper answer is formally telling them to fuck themselves and proceed with the interview.
>>
>>27665000
how do you keep fucking it up
like, if they keep giving you interviews, your resume must be solid, but if you've been blowing them for 8 months, you must be a legendary autist
>>
>>27669349
They have to give everyone who applies an interview just so the EEOC doesn't come down and rape them in the ass for discrimination bullshit. Most hiring manager already know who they're going to hire even before the interview.
>>
>26
>never had a job

This literally impossible for a depressed loser like me.

Manual labor, dude. Truck loading. Bottom of the barrel shit where you'll be rubbing elbows with hispanics and ex-convicts. Not actually having a criminal record will give you an edge.

Believe me, the misery from manual labor will drive you to find something better.
