I'm not counting what I've applied to and never gotten a call back from.
you've only applied to 3 jobs? or those jobs you had were online applications
aaah
okay
--Wow reading comprehension ahoy.
What kinds of jobs are you talking about?
More shitty retail?
because that's what happens in shitty retail.
Did you follow up with the manager after your applications?\
Because a lot of times with applications, paper or otherwise, if you don't follow up your chance drops to zero.
^
you do need to pester a bit at times
because a lot of times people fill that shit out to meet an expectation of parole or unemployment
it also ups you on the list
denotes a person who actually wants a job
If you want to get a listed job, you have to work for it. In your line, you have to have a diverse portfolio, in multiple styles, of multiple sorts of things
You have to get corporate stuff, hypothetical architectural sketches, company/event logos
I don't even comprehend how that works.
As well as the kind of art you enjoy.
Every time I've followed the advice of "Bug them, it will show initiative" and then tried it
"--Yeah I'll get to that later!!" in an annoyed tone
You've also got to consider the competition.
And I'm like "WOW THAT WENT EXACTLY AS I THOUGHT IT WOULD. WHY WAS I TOLD TO DO THAT"
You're not going to get a job offer from every application, that's just the way it works.
cuz you did it with the expectation that you were annoying them?
... You can't believe in something or don't.
rather than just "hey I applied a few days ago have you guys checked that out yet?"
Or disbelieve something you do
It's DIGITAL and they're HIRING, why wouldn't they have checked it out?
What the fuck are these questions of mine?
I was told a few times "Our <whatever person> comes in on tuesday, so try calling back then"
It's so stupid, holy shit
oh my sweet summer child.
I'd be annoyed.
I'd be REALLY fucking annoyed if someone called me like that
your a hiring manager
Yeah I can see why the unemployment now.
thats the job
I can't even TELL you how many times my managers have talked about how they never check their corporate HR digital applications.
Beef Taquitos taking his ball and going home, A HYUK. :^D
