The job market in the uk is so cooked some professors in their mid 40s are moving back to their parents house.My TikTok feed is way too depressing.
>oh no my lesbian dance therapy degree didn't land me a job nnnooo
I work in engineering and I don't notice any of these issues. Even asked young people if they had any issues finding and job and they didn't.
>>217194093>i asked people who have jobs if they were able to get a job and they all said yes so there's no problem
>>217194232Bodied that baldy
People should stop fagging around with all that white collar shit and get a trade and do some proper work. There's always something to be done.
>>217194093It's pretty competitive in Australia for entry level roles10 years ago people were finding it difficult to land them and I imagine it's worse now The industry is constantly whining about how graduates aren't employable enough and they're pushing to import foreign engineersI remember it being the meme that hardly anyone actually worked in engineering after graduating, most went into engineering adjacent fields or programming
>>217194232Asked them specifically if they had to apply a lot or had tough interviews and such things. I saw a lot of videos recently about it, so that's what sparked my curiosity.At any rate, for non-niche fields seemingly there is indeed no problem in my country.>>217194379That's a bummer, but honestly I think they'll learn their lesson in a few years.
>>217194045Nigga he had a job, a good one too. A person who used to be a professor should have no issue getting a new job
>>217194967Professor of what exactly
>Two years ago had no issue getting interviews>Being an obscene autist was my biggest problem as I kept failing them before finally getting a job>Think it's time to move on from current job>0 (ZERO) interviewsI really hope this is just because it's near the end of the year rather than things falling apart
>>217195183Gotta wait a few years for the job market to recover>>217195170Idc , my point still stands tho, he is obviously competent, otherwise he wouldn’t have be a professor at a university
>>217194232Kek
>>217195765>2 more weeks till the market recovers o algo
>>217195765I haven't had a pay rise in that time, deep down don't feel like I'm getting one soon either which is why I'm looking to leaveGod things are shit
>>217193945>bohooo my 3% unemployment rateshut the fuck up
>>217195861Lemme cope
>>2171961415% now and 20% of working adults in the uk economically inactive in the uk (aka unemployed)
>>217196219shut the fuck uptriple that in Finland
>>217196278How long have you been unemployed for?
>>217193945>the place I work at sets up a Linkedin account to find new workers>the first HOUR of listing, they got over 3000 resumes, and they had to pause itYeah this is not ending well
>>217196326I am not unemployed but I literally dont know anyone else but unemployed people
>>217194305There wont always be something to be done if there is a large influx of workers into the trades. The economy intentionally has bullshit white collar jobs in order to allow a the small amount of trade workers to have steady jobs. This system is now doomed.
>>217196340fr 90% of them are poos and PooBots on LinkedIn lmfao
>>217196393All locals, at least from glancing over at the names
>>217194232nobody's losing their fucking job in engineering unless it's "software" engineering
>>217193945Took me 19 months to get a new job. I might have sent out 1000 applications
burnp for awareness
wtf is the point of degrees if people don't have job security
>>217200063There is none. The job market has fallen
>>217200063degrees are now necessary to get a job at all>but i want securitynepotism then
>>217200063humiliation ritual for some number of years. thanks for wasting your time (and any money involved)
IMPORT ANOTHER 6 GORILLION NIGGERS AND MAKE SURE TO PAY THE JEWS TO DO IT
I used to rail against the jeet nepotism menace but I got a good job at amazon, and I suspect it's because the recruiter is a latinx (she's cuban and I'm mexican) like me and her LinkedIn is just her congratulating a bunch of other latinx about getting their new job
>>217200063our economies are run on debt slavery.
>>217200063our universities prioritise zhangs and jeets on student visas because they pay double the rates and upfront, they don't give a shit what happens as long as they pay
>>217200063job security is communism
>>217193945how is the road quality in uk? your trash delivery? your problem is you think you are above these jobs, but you aint. you should lay out tarmac or pic up trash>b-but muh education?did anyone ask for it?
>>217194045Good boy, keep burying your head and pretending there is no problem
>>217194305>Just do 2-3 years of apprenticeship paid 800 euros at 40 years bro
>>217196466My mom is a mechanical engineer and has been working for a consulting bureau for the better part of two decades. Constantly jumping from project to project and being laid off every third year or so due to lack of gigs before being hired again a couple of months later. Was laid off again this year and it's looking like it might be the final one since she's in her 60s. Unless you're working for some kind of state agency, work insecurity multiple times during a career is something that you can probably count on as a private sector engineer.
>>217201965if saab or volvo decided they wanted to start production again in sweden, what would they need? a couple of engineers and 2000 workers. what do they have today? 2000 engineers and maybe they could muster a few poles to do the work.
>>217193945tell you wot anon I'll take ye down to da pub and we gonna have 2 pints of guennies and some curry kebab then we gon go to da stadium and wash foosball with da pakistanis and we gon have a jolly good time, once yous realize eerythang good on them streets maybe then yous stop complainin' gay rights nigga
>>217202036Both of those have production in Sweden. She's never worked for either albeit. Her niche has been healthcare sector machinery. It's not a question of domestic production per say. Just the nature of private sector engineering and how dramatically their need of personal fluctuates even during profitable times. The idea that you could find a company and then spend a whole career there like some kind of japanese salery man is a pipedream. The tech sector is the worst example of industries where you need to be constantly changing jobs but engineering isn't that far from it
>>217201826For the uni prof I might be too old/weak to work menial laborHis best bet for a wagie position is in retail. Plus he can tutor on the side
>>217194045>haha just learn to code..... ACK
>>217202241>The idea that you could find a company and then spend a whole career there like some kind of japanese salery man is a pipedream.That’s why I started in banking. Many of my colleagues have worked in the bank their whole life, and I will probably do the same.
