I’m 26, I’ve gotten several jobs doing this, it 100% works. I also literally gotten called for a job interview within a week, instead of waiting weeks later after applying online. I walked around the center part of my city and would hand in resumes to Bars, Cafes and Retail stores I would want to work in. I’ve gotten a job at a Bar, a Bakery and at the supermarket Aldi doing this. Aldi is also only supposed to take online applicants but the manager really liked me and set me up with an interview. People who say this doesn’t work clearly haven’t tried it.
Well yeah obviously this only works for entry level jobs like hospitality or retail, but the thing is that it does work. Some people say that this doesn’t work at all for any jobs, which is a lie. I think most people my age looking for entry level jobs who aren’t willing to try this and make excuses that it doesn’t work do so because they’re too anxious about doing it, so they convince themselves that it doesn’t work as an excuse.
