Detailed question- I am curious how people have applied for numerous jobs and haven't received a single call or interview? I have applied about to 80 places received one interview and during that I got looked up and down by the manager, waited and another 30mins and then got told the position was filled.

I am very curious of everyone's experiences right now.

Please and thank you for your input.

History- I lost my job to the pandemic5/20 and then 1/21had a baby. Now trying to get back to work to feed all these kiddos. God bless! Stay strong and don't waiver! Right now it the time we need to stay strong. #interview #followup #advice #jobsearch #application

Wow ! Sorry to hear what you are going thru. But I’m having similar troubles- 2- 4 reply’s back after at least 100 inquiries. If they do reply it is a straight commission job and/or using your own vehicle , phone , computer for business. So I’m thinking most of these are scams or business trying to take advantage of others in bad times.

Be yourself , be genuine, and dressing casual , but nice attire is best. Its not a hard interview , smile, but dont be fake about it, and at the end gell the manager thank you for their time and shake their hand.

Training Manager General Manager at Starbucks

I agree with the previous answer. I’ll also add make sure you engage in conversation with more than a one word answer, relate the question to something personal and ASK QUESTIONS!! Read about Starbucks mission statement and core values and their history and come up with, ahead of time, at least two questions. It’ll show your genuine interest in the company. GOOD LUCK!!!

I'm looking for work in a small-ish Georgia town and I keep getting tons of emails from job promotion websites or services and some of them say "2nd Notice You have been accepted to ... Schedule your interview?" But I don't know what the job is and I do not remember applying to so many unspecific ones, and the email just gives me a link and honestly I don't even open the link because I've been taught not to trust stuff like that- what do I do??? #advice #interview #scams #followup #jobsearch #wordsofadvice # #

I got out of jail, ready to start my life over. Start fresh. You know, do it right this time? My brother and sister in law took me in and not only housed me but my sister in law hired me as her office assistant and gave me a chance to prove myself which in all the hardwork I put in at that job and the dedication to my job I did a lot of training and gained a lot of skills unfortunately due to my health I was let go March 2021. It had been 7 months and every job I've applied to has rejected me due to my felony drug charge from 3 years ago my 2 misdemeanors from 3 years ago my theft III and my identity theft which was a misunderstanding. I have applied for over 100 jobs and have been rejected every time. Please help me by letting me know of any jobs in the Willamette Valley of Oregon or the Vancouver Seattle area of Washington that hire felons. Thank you #advice #jobsearch #interview #followup #application #backgroundcheck #termination #unemployment

Hello! First try to understand from some of the perspectives of ones who have not accepted to employ you. I would try to volunteer for at least a year. From there the trust factor with the employer could be established. I believe that this person may also have a net work of business connection. Trust is the operative word. Build it. Good Luck

honey, why did your sister do all that for you and then let you go for an illness. are you sure that was the reason or just what you want people to believe. any case, you will have a hard time getting a job with your criminal history. do you still live with them are they still helping you. never ever burn your bridges and i hope you have not. i know from reading the specialist that post jobs there are places who give second chances. the only worry i would have is that your criminal past is in the last 3 years and not many years ago. the perspective employers may think its to soon to much of a risk and what if your reoffend using there technology and cause them to have to fight a law suite because of something you did. i am not knocking you down or saying this will happen but put yourself on both sides of the chopping block. good luck, take care and maybe see a therapist to help you.
