/biz/ - Business & Finance

11 months after graduating and I've seen every excuse for not getting hired. 250+ applications. I understand your pain.

nice trips
it's easier to scam people than to provide legitimate productivity in this overtaxed and underpaid hellhole

>>16309000
Where are you from OP? I'll teach you how to get a job.

>>16309021
It's a clown world

>>16309035
Australia. Plz don't scam me.
I've had enough disappointment

Because the definition of a decent job is where you are in fully in charge of your own productivity, reaping fully the reward of success and failure. You can't get satisfaction on a treadmill that keeps getting faster to make someone else richer while you run ever harder for the carrot on a stick of +.50/hr salary bonus if you be a 'good boy'.

I was a firefighter-paramedic for 7 years before realizing that I hate healthcare and don’t feel like risking my life anymore.

Despite having a BA in Business Intelligence (lul) and living in a major metro area, nobody is interested in me other than healthcare companies or scammers.

It’s been 3 months lmao. I’m going nuts not working, thank God that I am financially secure. Any advice?

Sorry for the blogpost lol, just know that I feel your pain anons.

I'm sorry to hear that you haven't had much luck finding a job. I am from the UK but to my understanding of Australia, it's quite hard to find jobs. The economy is not producing many jobs and you have a lot of migrants looking for work. Commune between cities is almost impossible as the distance is long.

Have you thought about reallocating to a bigger city?

Retrain as an accountant, I did it at the age of 26 and qualified at 29. Now I'm 32 I'm on a comfy wage and looking to start my own business leasing software to companies for their payroll. Before hand i was earning £20,000 a year, as of last year it was £55,000 for my day job, and my leaseware has made £18,000 with minimal work.

If I could reroll my life, I would have become a software engineer or something, my friend is working from home, does barely 20 hours a week and earnes £80k

chances are you are not marketing yourself properly.

it's a boomer meme but it's also true the ''all you need is a hard handshake''. Google or go to plebbit and remodel your CV.

BRAG about your qualifications but don't lie (or lie just a bit) and make the company drool about hiring you.

explain them how much they have to gain from you and how good you are at flipping those hamburgers.

It's not too late. I posted this in a previous threat and I'm a bit tired of talking about it to be honest, but I'm a highschool dropout and I freelance photography services to real estate agencies. Earn 120k a year, I'm 21 and a highschool dropout. My first job was warehouse worker which I used to finance my freelance opportunity.

On average, the photo sessions themselves take about 5-6 hours per week, plus 2 hours commute. The real work is marketing my services.

Learn to be a salesman and you'll get paid for nothing :)

>>16309164
But other than my degree and irrelevant experience, I have no qualifications lolol

>>16309167
Oh just realized I said I'm a dropout twice. Sorry about that

Think about what the company wants. A job interview is essentially a sale.

>>16309000
work? just buy LINK

>>16309181
They want whoever has experience performing the same task/role elsewhere and whoever they can pay the least lol.

>>16309172
Invent some then, faggot.

This is something a very successful person told me:

If you get the chance to not hire someone, then don't hire them.

To an employer, an employee is the biggest nightmare, you might be thinking that you're wagecucking and that you're basically doing them a service, but from their point of view they have a lot of taxes to pay for you, a lot of insurance policies, a lot of paperwork. Make it worth their while and don't just go in there thinking they NEED to hire someone. They would much rather not hire someone, but once you got the job, and the paperwork is halfway done, they won't fire you, unless you literally have no idea how to do the job you applied for, because after the taxes and paperwork is paid for, that's when they are getting a bargain for your work.

That’s an interesting perspective, thanks for sharing it.

>>16309242
Nobody has ever asked for my degree/transcripts other than government jobs. Sometimes I wonder what the point of college was top jej.

Unironically buy LINK

>>16309167
How much do you charge real estate agencies? The majority of them take their own pictures right? Or do you only take pictures of the really nice multiple million worth houses? In any case i could hire a photographer at £250 a day and get two properties done a day. Within two months that's 56 properties and not even London's market is that hot that for multi million houses. The salesman quote is definitely true tho, I'm getting more and more calls regarding my leaseware in a few years I'll be able to hire people on nice wages (ones I would work for) to run the business while I can sit back, do fuck all and earn a shit load of cash.

time to buy UOS

>>16310693
I've been buying and selling the entire way up. Its in for a dump and i think this will be the last time we will see UOS in the single cent range.

Not everything is a scam. I'm in an industry where our primary sales method (along with dozens of other billion dollar industries) is door to door.

I offer jobs to people all the time where they can EASILY make six figures a year (sometimes in four months) at less than forty hours a week and they won't even try it.

They've been programmed to think "if I work in an office for 40 years I'll surely be rich".

On a side note, if any of you are in the phoenix metro area and are interested. Send me your resume to my drop address. If you don't seem retarded, I'll get in touch.
