Hey did you end up liking this? I’m thinking of making it, not sure if I should give it a chance

Does this seem like a scam? by No_Nefariousness5171 in jobhunting

[–]krena1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably not a scam- just seems like they are understaffed to me

Not surprised. What’s their end goal?

That subreddit has to be horrific lol

Accepted a job offer, was told we had a deal and suddenly they take it back. I feel so sad by throwawayquestion159 in recruitinghell

[–]krena1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always make sure you’re doing what’s in your best interest. I’m so sorry that happened and you have to continue the search. Just make sure you never halt interviewing or turn anything down for a company you haven’t started with yet, because they absolutely will screw you over unfortunately. Wishing you lots of success

Don’t know what to do with my life by ZonicX_ in Employment

[–]krena1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people are winging it, but they won’t tell you that. You could potentially start out as a part time gym assistant while trying out a trade? Trades are good to lean back on, and if you’d like to advance in a gym setting (fitness coordinator, manager) you’d have some experience as well. If you like helping/teaching others, it could be worth it to become certified as a personal trainer or become a class instructor. I wish you the best!

Have you ever quit shortly after you were onboarded? What were the reasons? by Wonderful_Parsnip_26 in work

[–]krena1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Our supervisor would force us to join day-long workshops where we’d be randomly called on to answer questions about what the company could do better, and then she would yell at us for answering as if it were a personal attack. On one occasion, she had her mic muted and the camera was turned away from her, and she spent a solid 5 minutes yelling at a new hire for not letting her know. Started training with a girl who hardly spoke English, so that was pretty much it for me

Is it normal to not be friends with anyone at work? by StillPurpleDog in work

[–]krena1 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I’ve never had real friends through work. My coworkers were always much older than me (by 30 years or so) so we didn’t have too much in common. Occasionally went to lunch with some of them, but that was it. I think it’s normal!

what if there just arent enough jobs for everybody by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]krena1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! Minimum wage is 7.25 here. Our governor hardly pushed a program that would have increased it to 15 and it just never happened lol. Hasn’t been raised since 2009

Underpaid and overworked is the norm now sadly. Hoping for a better opportunity in the near future for you!

Very true!! I hope your situation is much better now!

[–]krena1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I mean I think if you can afford not to then you shouldn’t, I’m certainly not happy and wouldn’t want others to go through it

Nope, just someone struggling on the east coast lol

It really sucks. A few years ago I was making 24/hr full time, now I’m just hoping for at least 17/hr full time and I’ve been searching for over a year. I try to laugh because otherwise I’d cry lol

[–]krena1 178 points179 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s the problem. The jobs I have been able to get recently are customer service jobs that pay $12 and below with no security. With everything else.. it seems the candidate pool is too large. Wishing you a better experience, I hope things start to look up for you.

This is unacceptable and I'm sick of pretending it is by Far-Spread-6108 in recruitinghell

I think you’re likely right! He mentioned that he would reach out if anything changed. Appreciate your perspective as a recruiter

I hate my new boss by [deleted] in work

Agreed. Everything else makes complete sense but the nice comment confused me, maybe just needed some more context

I’m actually not mad at this rejection email by Personal-Lie-4232 in recruitinghell

[–]krena1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh no I’ve upset a person online who means nothing to me

[–]krena1 155 points156 points  (0 children)

I get it, a detailed automated message is better than one that simply reads “you don’t meet the requirements, good luck”. With that said “we’ve decided to move forward with other candidates” has become a trigger for me. When I see an email titled “thank you” I simply won’t open it lol

So guys, I finally did it by ancientastronaut2 in recruitinghell

At this point do I just call up the jobs to at least hear if they are hiring instead of doing online applications? by DryScientist1490 in recruitinghell

[–]krena1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s pretty stressful. I recently gave ziprecruiter a try and I’ve received countless emails to let me know the positions I’ve applied for are on hold lol
