I’m so sick of going to networking events and the only tips they give you for getting a job is “network” and “be yourself”. And then they say if you don’t know just be willing to learn. JOBS WANT EXPERIENCE NOW! They don’t want to train us😭😭😭😭

My field sucks so back bc I’m literally competing with bored retirees at this fucking point. They retire, their pension isn’t enough and they have nothing to do, so they’re applying for the “easy entry level” jobs that they treat like grandma daycare. And I can’t even be mad. Would I rather hire a college graduate who needs training and expects growth or someone with 40+ years of experience who’s willing to only take 34k a year?
