[QUOTE="ouchdrummer:1205288"][QUOTE="arkquimanthorn:1205275"]And it's true that knowing people does help. I'm extremely lucky that I have a stable IT job and was able to give my cousin glowing recommendations to the recruiter he was in contact with that landed him a position at UMass. It also helps that he knows his ass from his face and was able to surprise people with computing skills and probably started off a little bit lower down the ladder than he should have, but maybe shooting low pays off when you really need a fucking job.[/QUOTE] I know at least a dozen people that could get a job within a day... if they were actually desperate enough to take a job they thought of as "below" them. Problem is, with the way unemployment insurance is structured here, people hold out and don't take jobs that they could have, because they want to hold out for something they think "fits" them better. What i don't think these people realize, is that when an employer is interviewing for a position, just the fact that the applicant is employed makes a difference. It shows that you AREN'T "too big for your briches", that you're willing to do what you have to in order to make ends meet. That's a good quality, and it shows that you prefer working for less money as opposed to sitting at home lazily collecting taxpayers money. Which, i assure you, is a big difference.[/QUOTE]
