I now have a shitty humanities degree, how do i now get a job? Do i have to start a linkedin and post ai posts until someone hires me?
>>62728079Are you going to pretend that 90% of people didn't warn you about getting a useless degree? People with serious degrees and years of experience are currently struggling in the job market, so what do you think that means for you?
>>62728081they did and i was stupid and i hate myself for itbut what should i do now?
>>62728082Go back to school and become an electrician. That’s one job there’s guaranteed demand for in the age of AI
>>62728085>electriciannot happening, i want a real job
>>62728086Then why did you study humanities?
>>62728086I'll bite. It IS a real job, faggot.
>>62728087because i was a faggot and too afraid to do anything harder
>>62728086That is a real job. Whatever job you were hoping to get from your degree is not, unless you wish to spend the next 10 years working at Starbucks until you're inevitably replaced by a cheaper coffee-making robot.
>>62728090yeah dude, high society
>>62728096poisonous thinking. you're on your own. just flop like a fish. if you land back in the water lucky you I guess
>>62728091The other anons are right, it's probably too late/hard/expensive for you to go into engineering Just become an electrician. If you work well you can start your own company in a few years and make good money.You won't have to deal with nasty stuff like the plumbers, or carry back breaking stuff like the carpenters. It's pretty comfy I reckon
>>62728094i know, i work at a cafei dont think we are getting replaced anytime soon, maybe some parts of the productions at leastits a dead end and i cant do it any longer
>>62728106>i work at a cafeAnd you're shittalking electricians about not having real jobs? That's very funny. Best of luck in your coffee-making career
>>62728096You can still invoke your humanities degree in diners and parties, and turn 80IQ ideas into what sounds like 120IQ speech to 90IQ people (isn't that what you are mainly taught in humanities?)The difference is that you'll have actual money
>>62728103somehow doing an 180 and spending the next 10 years studying engineering from scratch seems less painful than becoming a fucking electrician>>62728108where did you get the idea i like this? i do it because i want the money
>>62728079Get a degree in jobless in humanities. It is now the hot degree to graduate
>>62728113>where did you get the idea i like this?I don't. But you are in no position to talk shit. You're not sitting on a high horse. You don't even have a horse. You're stuck in the mud behind the horse, covered in horseshit. Becoming an electrician would be a major step up for you. Time to get your little ego in check
>>62728079Don't even bother with linkedin, just go anywhere and ask if they accept resumes, lie about your years of experience, and try to be as confident as possible and ask questions about the job if you manage to get an interviewGoing out and asking for work helped me more than any fucking site that basically begs you to humiliate yourself
>>62728079What sort of humanity anon? There are grades of respectability to this.
>>62728086Now you're insulting
>>62728079What majors?
Play to your strengths. If you're good at learning them simply learn an in demand skill and bullshit your way into a job in that field. College degrees used to be an indicator that regardless of your skills you could pick up new things easily enough, nowadays I'm not sure that's the case anymore.
>>62728113If you're afraid of trade level electrical work then you're not going to be able handle an engineering degree full of theoretical washout shit test bullshit. Also engineering is notorious for almost every field being full of crunch time, or your job as an engineer is 50% field work 50% office work. Software engineers are a dying breed and are getting raped by AI, I hope you enjoy industrial work since everyone else on the job site is a felon or chronically on drugs or both and the company needs someone they can trust to take readings.
>>62728366> College degrees used to be an indicator that regardless of your skillsCollege degree is a tool of reputation, nothing more, but in time of moral bankruptcy society, college degree always come in handy.
>>62728079Unless you got a PhD, your degree is worthless. Every single person has an university degree these days
>>62728086How about electrical engineer?
>>62728079Try Starbucks, or McDonalds maybe
The bad news is degrees do not make the job vending machine spit out jobs anymore. The good news is that you're likely plenty capable and smart as a frog poster, not a jab love me frogs, and if you start working in a field and learn lots about that field you can unironically learn lots about that field and work your way up from smaller companies and jobs to bigger ones.
you were supposed to network with professors, join clubs, talk to people, build things with the resources your school has, go to your career services and academic advisors office. but instead you choose to do none of that and ask an anime forum on the internet because you are too scared to have a conversation. fuck you.
>>62728489you didn't even ask this imageboard WHILE YOU WERE STILL IN COLLEGE you decide to do it after graduating? what the fuck did you do for the past 4 years?
>>62728079>how do i now get a job?Actual advice: you were supposed to have secured a job before you graduated. The fact that you didn't shows you don't have initiative, therefore no company will hire you.
>>62728730>>62728489this.
>>62728079Temp agency. The pay will be dogshit and the work will be less pleasant than other near minimum wage positions but it is a way to get post-degree employment onto your resume which you desperately need right now.
>>62728079Ive never had a job that required my degree. Indeed worked for me. I only make 31 an hour but its fine. I dont have any real advice like the rest of these guys. Its a real knife fight out there
Speaking as someone who is a boomer, here's what I'd do in your situation.Work hard: Have an income, even if it's minimum wage. Of course, always try to get a real job, but money compounds. Take full advantage of NEETbux as well, if you can.Produce stuff in your free time: Writing, YouTube, videos, etc. You're young, so you can do shit like this and not be seen as weird. And publish it. Take advantage of AI: Don't be a luddite. Learn how it can make things easier. You can maybe code stuff yourself. If you're a humanitard, the least you should be able to do is judge writing or think critically.Apply to graduate jobs: Many graduate jobs don't require specific degrees.
>>62728079maybe mcdonalds is hiring? If not, transitioning and then doing prostitution / onlyfans is always an option
>>62728086Why would I hired some american with an inflated view of themselves when I can hire a dude from El Salvador who has be doing wiring since he was 8 and needed to help his dad?Zoomie zooms are beyond entitled and that is why they struggle getting started in the job market.Get some experience under your belt, build your resume up and then in a few years you can try and move up.
>>62728842So that you don’t subsidize people from El Salvador living in your country.
wait your graduated without finishing your entire network?
did you at least do internships while in college? Did you do no networking?My first job a friends dad hired me, my current job I was hired by the uncle of a buddy of mine. My brother just got a nice job after his mother in law got him in contact with her friend who worked HR at a big firm.
>>62728828>Take advantage of AI: Don't be a luddite. Learn how it can make things easier. You can maybe code stuff yourself. If you're a humanitard, the least you should be able to do is judge writing or think critically.This shit is oversatturated and everyone will skip your shit. If anything there's a pushback and people value even garbage more now if its "hand made"
>>62728079Well? What's the degree exactly?
>>62728493>>62728876i thought you were supposed to get a job after graduating. people go to university to avoid jobs. there's nothing more disgusting than jobs, why would i "want" a job and be submissive for some retard? there are no words in the english language more ugly than "work", "job", "career", "employment", and "labor".internships are supposed to be for poors that need money during their studies. it shows that you're a willing, desperate little slave.
>>62728965>i thought you were supposed to get a job after graduatingYou are but you need to weasel your way into conversations with people that can help you during college. Be of service to someone, anyone. For some people that means letting their frat brothers use their nfl season tickets for their dads birthday and in return their dad gets you a job at their company(over years of shared favors for eachother), for other people that means letting the club president use your boat during spring break, for people without money that means helping out your professor in return you get a letter of recommendation attached to your application.>people go to university to avoid jobssubjective>why would i "want" a job and be submissive for some retard?if you don't want a job then go build your own business but university would still help you network with people that could help you build your business like zuckerberg for example he had his college roommates do certain things and you aren't going to find motivated and skilled people doing labor for free outside of college. College is your only opportunity to have peers your age risk their time and money to work on a startup, once people get older they have responsibilities and need stable income they can't risk months on a project that doesn't get off the ground.(1/2)
>>62728965(2/2)>internships are supposed to be for poors that need money during their studies.No. It's a humiliation ritual to show that you have experience complying. It's no different than shaving your head in the military, or chugging gallons of milk during hell week in a fraternity, it's just a shared embarrassing experience to make you closer to other people and have them accept you. Rich and poor people both get internships throughout college. Going through college with no internship shows that you just expect things to be done for you and shows that you lived off mommy and daddy's money the entire time and that you're a spoiled brat that got filtered out and didn't get picked in an interview either because 1. you have no skills or 2. you're networking sucks. Regardless which one it is you are of no use to a company without having done an internship or worked on your own business/project during college. Some people can get by without not having done an internship but those people have parents that will hand them the keys to a position in the family company OR their parents are close with someone that can give you an easy in.
>>62728730>The fact that you didn't shows you don't have initiative, therefore no company will hire you.bingo
