Jobseeking Is Still Worse Than It Was

The government have made the process of claiming jobseekers (universal credit) longer now. It takes at least 5 weeks for the applicant to receive the first payment of a claim.

Governments Force People Into Crime + Poverty

Governments are supposed to support the people they rule over. Actually, the people are supposed to rule over their governments... but oh well, everything is wrong and futile. It's even 'wrong' to say that things are 'wrong'... Everything that is 'right', fair or decent, has opposition that uses superior levels of effort to argue against wishes, dreams and happiness.

Due to govern-mental neglect, individuals are left to be unemployed and homeless. While there are solutions, none are in place. Justice systems continue to serve the rich while damning the poor. Jobcenters do not help people to get jobs. The publications provide propaganda and lies.

Mr Victim has been forced into violently mugging people, stealing and dealing... because despite any of his efforts, he cannot get a job anywhere and would be sleeping on the streets if he was not a criminal. The government gives him no assistance, only the threat of imprisonment. For him under the government's hateful neglect, being homeless is a crime and employment is a factual impossibility.

Governments, fairly, want people to work and governments do not want them to rely on benefits / social security. So, the solution is to make sure everyone is working. Leaving individuals to find work on their own is silly, because too many people CANNOT find work. So, to keep them away from 'benefits' ENSURE THAT THEY HAVE JOBS.

If the government forced a job placement system, homelessness and poverty would not exist. Despite the benefits and plausibility of such a notion, it is fervently denied; Because rich people won't be happy...

This world is a joke... about which, only the heartless can laugh...

10 Obvious Ways Employers Are Clearly Unfair + Illogical

Of course, many aspects of the entries below are fair, I'll focus on the unfair and illogical aspects. In desperation, as I adapt this from another article.






You aren't very savvy on social media (ME TOO) 


When ...social media is more media than it is social. ....broadcast to unforeseen audiences. Employers will Google you and look you up on social media sites... more than 40% of companies said they have turned down candidates based on what they see on their social profiles.... looked up a candidate ...wearing only a sock. (Not on his foot.) Your profile picture isn't private.A sales manager shared a story .... brilliant resume who interviewed well,.. didn't get the job because he was smoking or holding a bong in what seemed like every photo ever taken....


Why are you judging people on who they are as individuals? Why must they adhere to a rigid outline of a quintessentially 'boring' person? When Facebook and Google accounts didn't exist, did you benevolent employers hire private investigators to look into your applicants personal lives simply for additional reasons to not give them jobs? What are you hoping to find from looking at Facebook profiles? 

Should someone put up a false character image/impression on Facebook for all of their true friends to be confused by? Is a picture of a man and a dog better than a woman with three cats? Is it fair for employment to not be awarded on an objective basis?

Things That Make Employment An Impossibility

HR teams hold no responsibility.

The organisational bodies that provide the populace with employment opportunities seem to function in the most questionable ways possible. However, though their idiocy is apparent to most, these people don't care about the responsibility that comes with their positions of power.

Societies need employers as much as they need food.
ZERO-HOUR CONTRACTS

What is the reasoning behind the high number of false advertisements on jobsites?

The length of applications is a barrier to people who have lives and cannot afford to waste hours every day on absolutely nothing. Some applications take people 10 hours to complete. You may say that applicants should only apply for jobs that they have a chance at getting, but anyone should have a chance at getting an un/low skilled role.

So, out of desperation, everyone is forced into applying for the roles that 'anyone' can do, meaning the numbers of applicants, and therefore rejections, will be high. Shouldn't the applicant number for unskilled roles, and others that get hundreds and thousands of applicants, be legislatively capped? If only to stop so many people wasting so much precious time.

Illogical interview processes.

As well as: Why allow 2000 applicants then interview 50 people for a single job? That's a lot of wasted time and energy (translation: money)..

Nobody is reading 2000 applications? Is a robot reader, looking for keywords in 2000 applications, a better decision maker than a qualified human searching through the first twenty for a suitable candidate?

Why waste yours and so many people's time?

Why have one team of interviewers interviewing before another (then maybe another), isn't one team enough? Who's actually making THE decision? Is the first team not trustworthy? Or is it the last one?

Making the job givers unreachable.

Why are applicants unable to get a contact number for the person who is hiring? Why are we expected to be content with them hiding themselves away behind receptionists and the internet... Why do they see speaking to people as the worst thing ever?

Disproportionate hiring allowed to damage communities and business.

I understand your concept of 'cultural fit', but isn't that just a disagreeable method of discrimination against individuals who are unique?  It is essentially the practice of not hiring people who aren't like the people who are already employed.

Why are there factories with 90% Asian staffing?

Why are there offices in which 90% of the staffing is female? Every female construction worker is employed.

It should not be acceptable, in a civilised society, to have organisations comprised of groups of individuals that do not mirror, in some way, the groups that they serve. People are different. Sorry. It is not fair for a paper that has 20% Mexican readers and 100 staff to not have a single Mexican writer. There should be 20.

White's in America and the UK make up no more than 60% of the population. Outside of workplaces.

Ignoring issues.

Of what logic is a student loan system that knows that most of its graduates probably won't begin repayments?

We know that the longer someone is unemployed the harder they will find regaining employment.

Isn't that completely moronic? Should we not have a compassionate priority for applicants who have been without opportunities for long amounts of time? Not a vicious-circle devaluation of them? To run a system that isn't idiotic?

Three months of bad luck turns into 12. A year of unemployment results in unemployability (not even a word according to Google) that conceptually leads to AN INFINITE LENGTH OF UNEMPLOYMENT. nice...

Yes... people find their way, to phoenix flights, defeatist satisfaction or end-of-the-road ruin, but only after relying on taxpayers money, paying none themselves and committing crimes. What serious problems to further?!

Is it fair for many companies to only allow allocation of 12+ HOUR SHIFTS!! to human beings wanting sustenance funds for staying alive and healthy and then pay them the lowest possible wages?

Will we ever do any better?

A lack of clarity about our situation.

If there's a number of people who are unemployed or underemployed..

And there is a specific number of open positions..

Can we know those numbers? If not, should we? For the benefits..

If there's 2 million unemployed in a region and there's 500,000 jobs.. Wouldn't the people knowing that there's not enough jobs to go around be better than them confusedly not knowing? Outside of art, isn't clarity better than mystery? Or would it expose the reality of our situations to all? Would we all riot? Would you guys be dead?

Denying Unemployability (Not a real word in Google but Oxford Acknowledges)

Many people believe that there are no unemployable people, despite the fact that they see many of them on the streets every day. People write articles and books arguing against its existence. Is a person that cannot ever find acceptance in interviews employable? Does society not have it's rejects? Should they be saved? As we did to eachother?

Imagine a homeless man who people don't like to talk or listen to, with skills but no suit, nowhere to wash and a mind filled with fear and apprehension from experience.. Even though nobody will give him a job, he is somehow not unemployable.

If 'unemployables' are a myth that nobody believes in, how are 'the unemployable' ever going to get the help that they need.

"We don't care, and we're no sorry"

The shift in the availability of employment.

Why is it that twenty years ago the paradoxical 'experience to get experience' paradigm didn't exist and people could get many more jobs without experience?

Why is it that 40 years ago, jobs were given out with more eagerness and trust? Today, it seems that employers simply don't want to help communities.

We all know now that the difference between average worker pay and average executive pay has increased hugely over the years, Why are you rich people so selfish?

Since when has it been okay to never offer any kind of training, even for 'unskilled' roles? If someone can teach a new employee their role in less than a day, why must someone have experience to get an opportunity? You could even acceptably take the costs for that induction day out of the new employees wages...

"Show her the ropes"
"Do Not! Show Her! The Ropes!!"

Jobcenters not actually being centres for jobs.

There are no jobs to be found in jobcenters, people go to them only to say that the information on the staff's system is correct. That's it... no jobs, no interviews, no employment assistance.

Why are penniless jobseekers expected to spend money to travel every single weekday to their 2nd closest jobcenter, to not get a job and receive zero help?

Why is the jobcenter not a place that serves an idea-of-GOD-supporting job placement system?

Job seeking has costs, a main one being that of travel, so why not provide job seekers with travel cards that allow 2 free journeys per day? To help.. You politicians have areas where there are 15 twenty-storey blocks in a square half-mile. For most of the people living there, 'the jobs' are miles away.

As I must say all to often, NOTHINGS GONNA CHANGE for the better.. and you not believing me or sharing shit like this helps immeasurably.

Be afraid, be very afraid...

The overarching issue is that employers (and other governed establishments that serve as underpins for our societies) function with barely the slightest semblance of civility, compassion or consideration.
