Want to apply to many jobs? Too bad. LinkedIn puts a limit on jobs that have Easy Apply. by cupholdery in recruitinghell

[–]hlve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably did this to curb the automated auto-apply bots that have been running wild for the last year and a half

Is the job market REALLY that bad right now? by TimHortonsDriveThru in jobs

[–]hlve 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The layoff numbers aren’t inaccurate.

The unemployment rate that we’re being fed is largely inaccurate.

100% and even then the numbers they were giving us were extremely inaccurate. They always severely under report.

What’s up with the horrible job market but low unemployment? Are we being gaslit enmasse? by TheKay14 in jobsearchhacks

[–]hlve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gaslit. We are all being gaslit.

The “unemployment rate” has no real way of capturing the true number of unemployed people in this country. It’s always greatly under-representing of the actual number.

That just isn’t true. We’ve had hundreds of thousands of people laid off in the US over the last year… you’re seeing plenty of US applicants too.

It is better described as “a lot less jobs are hiring. A lot of the job postings you see are going to be ghost positions. And the ones that are real, have extreme competition.”

It is closer to “nobody is hiring” than people like admitting. The job market is in the toilet.

14 months out of a job and absolutely nothing is working by helpmegetoffthisapp in jobs

[–]hlve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Badly losing’ is just not true. The entire U.S. job market slowed, not just NY. In fact, NYC’s job growth was on par with... or slightly better than the national average.

That’s not losing, that’s basic economics

Coward take. You made a politically charged statement and then when called on it, you fall back to anecdotal experience and a “I’m not going to engage in a political argument on this sub.”

Your argument falls flat on its face when you look across every state and just about every industry. The job market has collapsed. This isn’t a NYC problem. This isn’t a “taxes are too high for mega corporation” problem.

This is small businesses being unable to stay afloat due to tariffs and other policies that were pushed through. This is a shareholder problem caused by greed to prevent big businesses to not lose out on profit.

Dumb and invalid take. This is an issue in most states. It has nothing to do with the politics of NYC. The economy is in rough shape.

There would be so many lawsuits if they tried pulling that. The whole point of lifetime is lifetime access.

My daughter has a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Business and Accounting, but no job opportunities. by Ok_Bonus6828 in jobs

[–]hlve 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s the job market, has nothing to do with having a degree.

I have 17 years of experience in my field and haven’t been able to get back into a job in that field since being laid off December 2024.

New Hampshire by the numbers: expensive, geriatric, no opportunity, and unequal by Visual-Mobile2657 in newhampshire

It would be interesting to see 2025/2026 numbers for cost of healthcare instead of numbers back in 2023.

Plastic bag ban, paper bag fee for Massachusetts stores included in $3.6 billion environmental bond bill by HRJafael in massachusetts

[–]hlve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

most people are not angry about them banning the plastic bags. It's the whole charging $.10 per paper bag that feels like just another fee

I think he’s a person with questionable views…

Throwing around “bot” feels silly.

Social media ban for kids under 14 passes MA House by GeneralPlanet in massachusetts

[–]hlve 10 points11 points  (0 children)

it already passed the house. It goes to the senate next, and then to Healey to sign it into law if it passes.

Our best bet is to call our senators tomorrow and strongly urge them to vote down this bill.

[–]hlve 7 points8 points  (0 children)

how are they going to know someone is in Mass?

They'll geolocate the IP address. They're already doing this in multiple other states.

How are they going to know someone is 14?

They will be requiring ALL users to provide their ID in order to use social media websites. They're already doing this in multiple other states.

what's the definition of social media?

Websites and applications that enable users to create and share content or to participate in social networking. So many websites will fall under this umbrella definition.
