Job posting boards are such bullshyt man they need to shut Monster and all that horseshyt down

I have had 4 jobs so far, I got them through family, Craigslist (never again), and recruiters

Recruiters & direct contact are it. I get the feeling I will get my next job through direct contact (i.e. emailing my resume to whoever has an email addy up on a company's website)

You want to be talking to the person working for you, not some bullshyt HR person

How the hell do you think those recruiters got your information in the first place, dummy?

How fukking stupid is that? You need a job to gain experience, but you need experience to get a job. You need money to go to school, but the purpose of school is to make money. Man life is a paradox.

a lot of countries have free college for everybody but in america we choose to spend all of our tax money on wars

Thats true, but on the flip side the actual job postings on those sites are useless
You either:

A) Don't qualify...

B) Are applying to positions that have too many applicants...

Nothing beats referrals though. Pro-active jobseeking behavior is also a plus.

Actually, what would you enter into the search bar of one of these sites if you were looking for a job?

bout to start my 2nd year. I'm working, but the job where I work at I have people under me. I don't want to be a manager there because the people are very unprofessional, and I fear I might get fired or gain bad habits.

Sophomore year is the year to start interning. Go to your school's career center as soon as school starts back up. If you don't know where it is, find it. Big top name companies recruit for summer internships in the fall, so don't miss out. If you're black and have a good GPA, depending what school you're at, you're gonna :eat: good :smile:

On a more serious note, though.

Some companies SAY this, but don't mean it. It's only to weed out those who really have doubts about the position.

I'm not saying it always works, but it definitely applies, sometimes.

My younger brother is the king of no experience / no certificates, and the lil nikka is working a 40k job as a system admin @ 20 years old. He's getting underpaid, for the job, I believe. BUT, he got the job because he just randomly applied. And this is gonna look good for him, experience wise, later down the road.

The job he had, before this was 2 years as a Tech support...........at Staples.

That lil nikka amazes me sometimes. :jawalrus:

You have to work the system. They say you need experience, well create your own experience. Me, I used to go around with my dad and help people setup their networks, computers ect. Charge a couple dollars...so I just made up a company name and put down exactly what I did and pretended that it was a job that I worked.

It was real experience that I gained so they can't catch me off guard with questions about it. They made this dumb ass system so make it work for you.
