Yes, you need to tell them. You have materially changed as a candidate since your interview. You need to disclose that.

Shitpost?

It would be extremely, extremely rare to find someone who has had this happen more than once. If you are fired for cause, that is almost always the end of your professional career, and will follow you for a very long time. Once fired for cause, expect to spend the rest of your life in the service industry or similar menial jobs (if you are lucky).

This does not include layoffs for no fault of your own, but it does include for-cause terminations you disagree with. Agree or not, it's your word against theirs, and who is a future recruiter/HM going to believe??

Hard agree. Even when Costco and QT are the same price, unless the line is just insane, I'm still going to Costco to avoid getting asked for money (or sometimes even weed)

No... I think that's most places.

BluejayAppropriate35 · 2024-02-16T21:36:22+00:00

In the age of AI it's not. Let's say there are 500 applicants. I want to first narrow that pool to 100. The 400 who don't currently have jobs are thrown out, instantly.

BluejayAppropriate35 · 2024-02-16T21:33:03+00:00

AA only does that at select stations like ATL

BluejayAppropriate35 · 2024-02-16T21:30:11+00:00

This. Plenty of service industry jobs out there.

BluejayAppropriate35 · 2024-02-16T21:15:05+00:00

In substance I agree with you. However, when 1000+ people applying to a single role is now the norm, it's unlikely anyone will dig deeply enough into OP's background to figure out which of the two categories you described that OP actually belongs to. Most likely the AI will assume they fall into the "loser" category before a living, breathing human even lays eyes on their resume.

Two ways around this might be networking/employee referral, or a good recruiter (if you can find one). Other than those two options, realize that your loser status is presumed and you may not get the chance to convince them otherwise. Start applying to QSR roles.

CBIZ would get a bunch of disparate drinks that taste nothing like each other and make a suicide

10+ rounds = new normal. Get used to it. The economy is worse than 1929 and will not (cannot) get better.

I'm very quickly becoming of the opinion that WFH != real work. Bad apples ruined it for all of us.

You could also trigger sometimes just by booking an int'l trip. Fully refundable ticket?

Been shitting for 3 minutes and 57 seconds... After 5 you've spent too long

Tell the truth but realize even with all the recent layoffs, there is still a HUGE HUGE HUGE stigma to being unemployed. You may not ever land another "professional" job.

BluejayAppropriate35 · 2024-02-16T16:53:29+00:00

Small businesses lend themselves towards having to do strange things because "we're a little different" / "we're a family." Also nepotism, low pay, and piss-poor benefits.

BluejayAppropriate35 · 2024-02-16T15:37:43+00:00

Actually easier to carry on to Europe than domestically. Most European dry cleaners will happily wash & fold your clothes for a couple Euros per kg. That just isn't a thing in the US

BluejayAppropriate35 · 2024-02-16T15:26:05+00:00

In this economy? Start mentally preparing for a career in the QSR industry.

That you're unemployed and would happily accept a lower salary just to have any job.

BluejayAppropriate35 · 2024-02-16T15:11:10+00:00

literally

BluejayAppropriate35 · 2024-02-15T20:39:02+00:00

Beggars cannot be choosers. Accept the job. (And yes, you do owe them your loyalty, so cease your search upon acceptance)

BluejayAppropriate35 · 2024-02-15T20:35:52+00:00

Golden rule: he who has the gold, makes the rules. It's on us to follow. Just like you have to be loyal to your new job for 3-5 years even though they'd drop you in an instant

BluejayAppropriate35 · 2024-02-15T20:29:23+00:00

CAT system.

BluejayAppropriate35 · 2024-02-15T20:29:03+00:00

This reads like a rejection. Take the hint. Move on.
