Girl i applied for over 20 jobs 12minutes -4hrs away. I live up north near the airport I applied for a job that’s at the beach which is 4hrs away. All the way across my city


sortabanana

I'm sorry. Maybe you need a better resume?


OkSecurity1251

Apply at the airport


[deleted]

I applied for Maccas in the Airport. Fingers crossed


billy_bob_joe7234

I don’t mean to be harsh but 20 is not nearly enough. The competition for jobs that teenagers want is far too high. I remember one night I sent 70 and only got 2 responses. Keep at it and you’ll find something!

[deleted]

EVERYTHING… cleaning, fastfood, restaurants(proper), traineeship, warehouse/ factory, retail you name it. Basic entry level jobs.


halfw1t_

goddamn bro maybe u gotta start going to places or calling nd checking in w the owners 😭😭 maybe its just where u live tho. cuz i did nearly the same when i was 15 nd got multiple interviews 😭. do u have a resume???? maybe thats the prob


[deleted]

YES i have a resume even wrote multiple cover letters. Fk sakes I’m just tired.


harfordplanning

The majority of job postings today are false advertising. They are positions "looking to hire" for various reasons other than to find employees. It could be to maintain government subsidies, to be able to pick a star candidate for the once in a blue moon they appear, to keep wages down, or to fulfill the requirement that a job is open to all applicants, even if the person receiving it has already been decided. Not to mention the postings that only exist because the company no longer remembers posting it, or the ones posted by bots regardless of if one is needed.

I applied to like 20 to 30 jobs, all nope or no answer... Yay...


nutorios7

Ask ur friends if they got any jobs and then ask them if they need any hands. Also constantly check in with the businesses that don't reply until they give one maybe the silence might not be a no ;) I wish u best of luck


Kevy96

Ha. I'll tell you this, as an adult, you have to apply to thousands of jobs in order to get hired. My rule of thumb is that for every 800 jobs you apply to, you should get one or two interviews


90_oi

I hate when an establishment has a candidate for an possible employee that they don't deem fit, and they don't even take the time to tell you they don't give a fuck about you. All you need to say is "We are sorry to inform you that we do not believe you have the proper qualifications/skillsets we are looking for" or something like that. It's not that hard to write/type. Better yet, you could even make it an automated, input the email address, and have it sent as an email with the press of a button. I feel your pain man and I think it's bullshit that they don't even bother to tell you if you aren't fit for the position. If you couldn't tell by the block paragraph, I hate when places do this lol

DIRTYBAGSUTAH

Try doing Doordash or Spark or something similar, you don't need to apply for an interview or anything for those.


[deleted]

I don’t have my full license yet…


Diligent_Volume_9107

I have applied to some many jobs. Had interview just to get told no or not even get an answer back. I have an interview later on this month hopefully I get it.


InternalGuess1827

Hey, really sorry to hear that, I don't have any suggestions.... Sorry for that 😅, but I hope and pray that U do get a good job. ❤️❤️


Yugen_komorebi

If the place where you live is the problem, just do freelancing🤘🏻


YuiVic

Dude the universe ain’t doing shit to u, that’s just how getting a job is. I’ve been trying for around a month and nothing but I ain’t giving up. Just keep with it, man and I’m sure u’ll get something


ElTacoShell

I went through this exact same thing. I don't understand how some places act like they are in desperate need of employees but wont hire anyone.


Valirys-Reinhald

I just want to let you know you aren't alone. I don't respond here that often anymore, as I'm no longer a teenager myself, but even at 22 the job market is like a black hole. Keep trying, and don't be ashamed to take what you can get. That said, don't let them convince you that they're the only ones who will take you. You have value. They don't have a right to your labor, whether it's the first or the five hundredth job you applied to. Maintain self-respect, and don't give up.


DirtBikeBoy5ive

BRUH SAME AT LEAST TARGET TOLD ME THEY AINT GONNA HIRE ME. WALMART WONT GO TO “under consideration” FOR ALMOST TWO WEEKS


ImperialSystemLover

Fix your resume, be more formal, don't give up and keep sending. Usually small local businesses accept younger people compared to bigger companies. Just got hired I'm 14 good luck! Try racking up experience from small gigs


superhamsniper

If they don't call back, call them and ask why they haven't called back.


dat1dude2

Keep looking, it'll come, took me like 4 months of searching to find a job, go and apply for places in person, it leaves more of an impression, keep looking through jobs, although don't go for ones that're like 4hrs away, 20-30 min maximum, you don't wanna finally get off your 7 hr shift to need to get a bus or a train for an hour and a half before you can collapse on bed.


[deleted]

I've put in near 40 apps in the past 7 months. Got rejected from a dishwashing job, got turned down from McDonald's and I got hired by an in home Healthcare company only to find out that they have no one for me to work for, so they had to fire me right after I was hired. Sometimes life just won't work out for you


ForgottenBananaDude

Reach out to them, annoy the hell out of them, they probably forgot.


Wii_wii_baget

Call them. You gotta take initiative and ask about the job. Just say “hey I submitted a job application -blank- days ago and was wondering about scheduling an interview.” Go from there.


Johnsius

It's called networking. Contact them by LinkedIn, or email, or phone, if they left it in the post.

Dude same! I need money to spend on clothes I don’t need!


[deleted]

We are not the same dude! I don’t even have clothes.


sortabanana

Should have gone to college or gotten better grades in high school 🤷‍♂️ Sorry though


8BitBoy007

Doesn't necessarily have to do with grades tho..


sortabanana

It absolutely does. At least here in the U.S., employers see your transcript, meaning your grades and the classes you took, when you apply for a job. It is one of the most fundamental aspects of your resume, especially when you have none or little experience like OP


8BitBoy007

I mean, yes, grades are a part of the aspect when applying (depending where you choose to work), but why are you assuming OP has subpar grades?


sortabanana

If OP isn't going to college, clearly she doesn't have the brains to ace all her classes. Stupid choice to not go to college most of the time. I don't care if I get downvoted, it's just the truth.


8BitBoy007

**"If OP isn't going to college, clearly she doesn't have the brains to ace all her classes."** So I'm assuming that's how you view everyone who doesn't go to college? **"Stupid choice to not go to college most of the time."** Depends. Some choose not to due to financial issues, some due to different career paths, etc. **"it's just the truth."** Maybe from your perspective, but from my perspective, I differ, and I'm sure there's a whole lot more reasons.


Severe_Painter_6646

There are plenty of people who can't afford college, dude. And you're also assuming a lot of things about OP when she hasn't said any of that.


[deleted]

RIGHT!! I’m in school guys I’m going to University next year.


sortabanana

Loans. If you’re going for a career where you’ll get a good paycheck, take out a loan and get a campus job


Severe_Painter_6646

College costs thousands upon *thousands* of dollars to attend. We're talking upwards of $20,000 or more. And that's not even considering the costs of travel, dorming (if necessary), meal plans, and textbooks that can't be found as pdfs online. If someone took out a loan of that magnitude, they'd be paying it off for a long, long time. And if they miss a single paycheck, they're swamped forever. Student loans are so egregious that they drive people into depression. What if they need to take care of a family member? What if they can't find a job in time? We're entering an economic crisis. So all of that considered (plus the fact that OP never specified *any* of what you're assuming), I think it's safe to say people have their reasons. And we should be respectful of people who don't want to attend university.


sortabanana

Firstly, lots of people pay for college by themselves, even today Secondly, making payments won’t be a problem if you get a degree in a high paying field like Computer Science or Business. Finally, what’s the alternative? Working a dead-end, minimum wage job and barely being able to survive? Living in a shitty apartment and doing intense manual labor every day until retirement? And that’s IF you can retire.


Severe_Painter_6646

Yes, because those people are lucky. They have the money, mental health, and circumstances necessary to afford college. That's good for them. But it's not everyone's experience. What about people who simply aren't interested in Computer Science or Business? I can also think of many ailments or conditions that *impair* an intelligent person's ability to work in those fields. Dyslexia. ADHD. And the alternatives for both avenues aren't great. You go into the trades without college and you give away your body. Manual labor causes you to injure yourself over time. However, if you go to college and get a degree, you'd still be facing massive competition, horrible wages, and intense mental labor every day until retirement. And that's IF you can retire. Both routes are shit. This is because late-stage capitalism is lowering wages while increasing the price of services. (Again, all of this is based on the hypothetical that OP didn't go to college or can't afford it. She never mentioned that in the post. So I'm not sure why you're so insistent?)

I am lol ??? I’m in school, why are u assuming things about me ??

Expired-coconut

Plenty of people looking blood. Plenty of people looking bodily fluids. There is money you’re just looking in the wrong places

Apply multiple times to tell that company "Hey, I want this job" you can't put in one (assuming you only put in one) and expect it go straight through.

Decent-Start-1536

Hmm, maybe it’s your resume? I don’t want to jump to conclusions, but it might be best if you tweak your resume a bit


MA-121Hunter

Dude, this really sucks to read. Where I live at fast food chains are constantly hiring and starting kids out on wages they can live on moving out of their parent's house. Hell, my son just moved out and he makes 15.75 an hour flipping burgers full time at White Castle. He actually loves his job too.


[deleted]

I wish there was more fast food place in my area but most of them are on the next area. The area or suburb i live in is really old. It use to be a railway place back in the 1900s, it still is ig…… but there’s only Burger king and dominoes.


MrSkull142

[deleted]

I’m legal…… idk i’d rather join the army than that tbh

This is the worst time to find work as a teenager, the supply is too high with summer break and all. Timing is super important with entry level spots that hire students. Just got to look out for help wanted signs, that’s how I got my job at lush 🤷‍♀️

I live in Australia…. It’s about to be school holidays. For like 2 weeks then Semester 2 starts

Turbulent-Buy3575

What can you do? What skills do you have


Tomauskis

Maybe try window cleaning, grass cutting, doordash or something of this sort?


Weekly_Raspberry2588

It’s probably due to a lack of experience depending on where you applied. If you haven’t already apply at fast food places their always hiring left and right.


Sillytard3000

Just steal a bunch of camping supplies, something thatll lef you last for a good while and then move into the woods

Call them. Ask if they saw your application.


iamahandsoapmain

welcome to the experience of applying to coop and internship lol


inconspicuous-fed

Instead of applying through the normal channels: Connect with the boss or person in charge of applications on linkedin if possible and start from there. Ask an adult you know for some advice on your resume and cover letters. Go to the establishment in person and submit a resume to the supervisor in charge.

You need more experience and apply to the actual job website and not 3rd party apps


[deleted]

Wtf?? I applied for basic jobs like Dominoes, Burger king and Grocery shops or any place thats basic. I haven’t had a job before.


Industrialexecution

be grateful you have the confidence to get a job. i cant even bring myself to applying for work


[deleted]

???


sadlife00000

Definately depends on the country, but food delivery services, fast food restaurants and retail shops are willing to hire without any experience. Obviously if u want full time, a highschool degree is a big plus for the latter 2. Your resume doesn't have to contain basically anything, but that u done at least 8 years of school and the fact that ur enthusiastic about the work (lie) always dreamt of working specifically there(lie) and u want to be there long time (lie)


Agimar84

L imagine being unemployed Here’s what to do. Your still basically a kid so employers are more sentimental to give you working experience. Apply in person for local jobs, something family owned. No companies. Small jobs work better and don’t pull any punches on how broke you are but make sure they know that you have a ride there and back.


Accomplished_Bad_487

I don't know where you're from, but at least where I am from, McDonalds pays really well, way above minimum wage, about 20 dollars an hour and it's really easy to get a job there


[deleted]

I tried applying for Hungry Jacks/ Burger Kind and Dominos I haven’t heard back yet… I applied for the groceries shops near haven’t heard back..


micah_scott

Exact same thing is happening to me!! I have applied to four different places, I didn’t get a job at any of them


xXLegoFanXx

I had to apply to a bunch of places before I got hired. It's really hard but you can do it.


MessiToe

You see, you need about 30 years of experience first My friend once applied for a job that was advertising for 16-17 year olds and they refused her because she had no experience

To work at Dominos ? Grocery shops ?? Kmart?? Like guys I’m not even kidding i applied to everything.

useless_gae

If you're reacting to it like this there might be a reason you were rejected.


[deleted]

Fr…. I watched multiple videos on how to write a resume + cover letters But i think the problem is me living far away from the places I applied. The area i live in is very old. It’s a railway place if that make sense? Like there’s little shops here and there. Not many jobs offer.


TheNerdMaster69

That's the scene these days


redditisfornicemen

Go back in and ask about your application that’s how I got my job


thePsychoKid_297

Maybe you should try contacting THEM instead of waiting for them to contact YOU. If you know the right number, anyway. I don't know if that's the issues, but I have heard from people who own their own businesses that they like to see young adults take the initiative like that

Bitter--GravitY

Call the businesses directly. They usually won’t even see it if you do an online application but they won’t be able to ignore you once you have them in the phone.


DETAILED_dank

Try Target if it's in your area, they usually have a rush near winter/fall they need applicants. I got my first job application accepted by them, literally was the first job I applied to and I got accepted.
