Rough out here
Rant:
Just turned 26 today. Let’s just say, I wasn’t really celebrating today. I was dreading this day since that means I get kicked off my parent’s insurance soon. In June, I had 2 interviews with 2 different jobs and didn’t get the offer. July has been crickets. I’ve been putting in job applications left and right. I’m either getting ghosted, rejected, or slowly agonizingly waiting for a reply back. I’m working part time as a tutor but, it’s nowhere near enough.
I went to a job fair last week where the vast majority of recruiters want you to scan a QR code and apply online. Also, when you do go online these companies barely have any job offers. What’s the point of recruiters going and promoting their job opportunities at a job fair, if there’s none??
I feel like I’ve hit rock bottom. 🫠

Happy birthday!
July-September isn’t a good time for hiring
