network and bend over and assume the position for the man. He looks rather overfed doesn't he? Believe in yourself! Horsecrap. I'm unemployed because some people were born with a silver spoon in their mouths and get all the networking connections and I get nothing. How the he!! do you network if you don't have a natural "in" with people? You either know them or you don't, and obviously grubbing your way into someone's good graces because of their connections is going to get you nowhere. Graduate from college with a good GPA and a relevant internship, I need a job that pays the bills or I'll default on my loans and then I might as well kill myself as my credit will be ruined forever and bad credit will then further disqualify me for work. I'm too overqualified for low-level work (no food service for me, and not because I'm unwilling to, but because of what you suggested, that they won't trust me to stick around), and not qualified enough apparently to merit even consideration for an interview at any entry-level Bachelor's-degree-asking position, even if I meet many of the qualifications on paper. I think I'll just change my LinkedIn page to tell all employers and everyone with a job to go fu** themselves and burn in he!! for having what I don't have. I feel your frustration 100 percent! I've been on as many an twelve interviews over the last five months and no one has hired me
