WHAT ELSE DO EMPLOYERS WANT??I can't believe that I spend my whole day, reading your terms, answering your questions with long ass paragraphs (which is redundant since the info is already in my resume). spend hours making a short video presentation, which has to be one take, so about an hour to memorize and get it right. Uploading documents and self identification shit, making a couple of graphics to show my abilities, have to kiss ass and be presentable, all for a job that I don't even want in the first place. I HAVE to work for you because I don't want to Die of hunger!! "Why you want to work for us?" I don't. Nobody does.I have a decade of experience, wore many hats, making me overqualified for the position, speak three languages and you still won't hire me. "Not good enough" What the fuck.WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT???I studied for you, I've wasted my life in 9to5's for you, dedicated all for job security and still not good enough!
Average unemployable neet. Maybe try getting an attractive skillset instead of something a pajeet does for one tenth the cost?
>>456957>getting an attractive skillsetlike what? what do you suggest?
>>456955solid fucking design / aesthetic sensibilityprecisiongets the job doneis not utterly unpleasant to interact withbonus points for good background of interesting people and placesconfidencebut some people dont care about anything other than you are a competent technician who wants to live in the backgroundother want someone who can be upfront and manage clients
>>456958You voluntarily picked design as your “““career””” and it’s still you the one who’s complaining? This just shows that you’re not as smart as you think you are because no intelligent person would choose this path.
>>456960>no intelligent personI think it is more a question of how informed you are than a question of intelligence. these are correlated, but not the same
>>456955It's no longer about the job. It's all about performative nonsense. Some woman in HR is likely rejecting you. Best thing you can do is freelance and use a female persona or hire a woman to do your public relations.
anybody here is interested in connecting on LinkedIn?
>>456963not on and dont like linkedin
>>456963Yes, glowie, I want to doxx myself, how did you know?
that's very cool and all but ranjeesh and patel will deliver best premium vector gfx web designs for only 150$ a week
>>456958>what do you suggest?Video editing, programming, business development, etc.. There is a million skillsets you could add to yourself that would give your resume a lift. It all depends on where you live and what the market is like there. Besides, if you have a decade of experience you should be able to freelance so fucking easy... Just hit up some old clients and see if they need work done.You are the common denominator to your own failure. Plenty of dumber, lazier, uglier, and less competent people are getting jobs. And you aren't, so maybe look in the mirror and improve.
>>456955find a big name in the industry, look at his/her portfoliounderstand and imitate, but don't overdo it. :DD
>>456984freelancing is just as much about the market as it is about the person, as you yourself pointed out. sometimes there just isnt the work. and if youve had clients because you were an employee somewhere doesnt mean they want you as a solo player.
>>456991No shit, but it doesn't hurt asking. OP is clearly retarded and don't know the first thing about hustling for his paycheck... And no, there is always a market for freelancing. Have you heard of this thing called the internet? You can contact every company all across the globe and ask for any work they need done. Yes you'll get rejected 999/1000 times but that one time you hit you'll get a paycheck.
>>456994good strategy. enjoy fivrr.
>>456995When did I ever mention fucking fiverr? You are just as retarded as OP, unless you are OP, in which case you are still just as retarded as OP. So enjoy that.The fucking state of this board.>waaaah cant get a job because I'm fucking useless and retarded and I refuse to call clients myself, i need a company to do it for me because I'm so fucking scared of speaking to other humans and sell my skillset
>>456997i got work broand i run my own shopthe fucking state of youfuck off back to fivrr
>>456955>>456979Go back to school and get a real job this time around. Don't wait until your hairline starts receding even more on your bald spots. This artsy teen dream of yours has vanished a long time ago, so it's time you wake up to reality.
>>457008>Go back to school >get a real job this time aroundunless it's welding school or something like that, it's not a real job.
>>457000bro you're more retarded than the average reddit user. pajeet faggot
>>456955they want complete control, for them to have everything, and you? nothing
>>456955Graphic Design is a shit career, sorry you picked the wrong thing.
>>457032lol ok racisthave fun on fivr
That's rough buddy.
>>456955That's what the life of a kid who refused to study looks like in their adulthood.
Who died and made YOU dhe g*d of /gd/??
>>456955Finding a job nowadays without a direct recommendation is a game with the HR.You will need to search for those "CV protips" where they will teach you how to make your resume cancerigenous enough so the AI they are using to rank your resume gets a high rating. And yeah, they do take low ranked resumes to further steps because it gives them more work, so the HR will seem productive.Also, use chatgpt/copilot to write your answers. Tell it that he (the AI) is a expert in Human Resources and you need to the best answer for a job application (AI ranks low/mid/high tier answers as equals, so you need to tell it to filter the best).If you write a good answer with a vocabulary above 100 words for yourself you risk it being filtered as AI generated, that ironically happens less if you ask a AI to write a good answer for you.So yeah, it is a metagame with the HR, and more often than not you will find ghost jobs. Wish you good luck,
>>456955>>you're applying to ghost jobsmate, stop
I’ve come to the conclusion that employers don’t know what a Graphic Designer doesJust saw a job listing for a Graphic Designer that requires knowledge of Keyshot and SolidworksMotherfucker, you want a Product or Industrial Designer not a Graphic DesignerOther job postings for a Graphic Designer requires 3d animation, coding, video editing, etc
>>458446what a fag, lolDo your job! you're not making art, you're making flyers! kek!
>>456957Almost no one has some magical skill set that nobody else can do.All of it, no matter what industry, comes down to social networking and being personable enough people want to work with you.From there, having all these skills becomes valuable. Basically employers want to be able to depend on you getting shit done for them, even if it means you're outsourcing your own job to pajeets. They just want someone in their area, they can get in contact with, who can be trusted and held accountable.
>>456960Design's a fine start to a career.It can't stop there unless you're some incredibly talented artist though. You'll just get outsourced to pajeets.But learning design, getting acclimated with producing content on a variety of mediums, is a crucial skill today and going forward.You're not going to do all that well if you make mediocre logos in illustrator and your skill sets stop there. But if you can bang out a wordpress site, produce and edit videos, manipulate graphics well enough to translate across mediums, whip up and manage an email marketing campaign and basically advise on how best the company should approach all of the above, then you'll be valuable in some capacity at literally any organization.Not to mention you'll have a huge set of skills to get your own thing off the ground if you someday choose to.
>>456962Have honest to god been considering registering an LLC, branding it up, and basically doing freelance web dev / design work, but paying some chick to negotiate clients for me.
>>458446>>458650Schools, particularly faculty who don't actually work in the fields they're teaching, condition students to think this way.There's a constant no-true scottsman gate-keeping mindset around various fields, especially design, in academia. It comes from professors, from other students, from the hack local designers who come in to do presentations and all the students believe this person's some kind of big shot.In the real world, people want shit to get done. The flyer's not a priority, it's a necessary chore. Making it look professional is important, but it's not going to be displayed in a museum. It's going to be sent to a few thousand people and only opened by 2% of them.
>>458750Ok, flyer designer.
OP here.officially one year of unemployment!I ate through my savings and have literally 10% of my money now. in 1 or 2 months until it all runs out
>>459242I got a job at a local printers. They are often looking for people.
