It’s true what they say…
There really are no jobs out there at the moment. I have degree-level education, experience in every type of working environment, good references, and a legit reason for leaving my last job (redundancy). You’d think it would be easy to find a halfway-decent job under those circumstances. Well you’d be wrong. Horribly wrong.
What makes matters much worse is that looking for work is made so much harder by all of the employment agencies advertising jobs, which probably don’t even exist, all over the place in order to boost their client base. Every time I see a job vacancy that looks promising it’s always just a ruse to get you to go to the recruitment company’s website and sign on with them. I find it particularly annoying that the government’s jobsearch site is plagued by these private agencies using a public resource for their own commercial marketing purposes.
The depressingly futile search continues.
