“Thank You For Wasting My Time”: 91 Baffling Posts Straight Out Of ‘Recruiting Hell’ (New Pics)

I’ve finally found a job after over 500+ applications. I have been unemployed since July of 2024. I found a good part time but the pay was bad and I had shitty hours. Just enough to pay for gas to get there basically. I don’t even personally count that. Once I quit that in July of 2025, I thought I’d have no problem finding another job. BOY was I wrong. Life lesson learned.

Best advice I can give is keep applying. Showing up in person often gets you shoo’ed away. So instead save yourself the gas and money and just call. Call everywhere you applied to 1-2 times a week and ask if they’ve gotten anything or ask to schedule a meeting to talk. unfortunately was ghosted like 90% of the time and even had a few “sorry but…”. Don’t give up. Keep trying.

Here’s my stats I guess.
500+ apps
Just under 100 thanks for applying but.
The rest of the 300 or more were absolutely zero response.
3 interviews in the year of 2025. (Fucking traumatic).
1 interview in 2026 and I got the job.

Honestly I’ll be praying for all of whom need it. For the help and support I’ve been given. Thank you guys so much you helped me in not giving up as well as knowing my options. Stay strong we’ll all get through this!
