I just got a email from a recruitment agent - Very bad
I just got a email from a recruiter stating they are only looking for the top 2% in any industry to place for jobs.

My response was WTF! What about the other 98% and the millions of unemployed.


They just don't care. So if your looking for work. Avoid all recruiters. These people are mentality insane.

The only other solution is for the 98% to have a civil war and eliminate the other 2%

A recruiter found me my dream job right now. A recruiter who reached out to me. Only took 9 fucking months. So basically, never apply for a job ever. It is a waste of time. I guess just wait until someone calls you.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 5442817


I agree, the future looks really bad.
Companies are closing all over the place and the only thing recruiters are thinking about while everyone is struggling is how much money they can make if they keep shifting the top 2% around.

I bet you they hound them after every 12 months and perhaps even throw in some $$$ to make the move.

That's like a used car dealer saying they only sell only the top 2% of cars.

What I mean is this: don't be a fatalist. It's a marketing gimmick. And if it's not, there's always another recruiter, and another one, and another one.

Re: I just got a email from a recruitment agent - Very bad
Don't believe the BS that recruiters don't look at anyone over 40. That might be true for some hipster tech type firms and physical labour jobs, but far from true for many industries.

In fact, it's almost the opposite; experience counts for almost everything now. Academic qualifications mean jack if attained in the past decade or so, given lower bars and shit outcone. And no company wants a young ADD millenial SJW onboard to rock the boat, despite any corporate virtue-signalling to the contrary.

Older workers, reliable, broad experience, creative, down-to-earth...are what is keeping the economy running. Older folk often can be far, far, far more valuable.

Out of work, highly capable and experienced workers are stacking up like a scene from World War Z.

If the state governments don't open up 100% of every business soon it wall take 4-6 years to rebuild and start businesses from scratch again. That's if the banks are willing/authorized to issue business loans.

Remember it's the states as a conspiracy collective that closed down the country, not the FedGov. This was always all about getting rid of Trump. Now they are realizing that they can't unwind the plandemic easily. The downward spiral, self-feeding fire of self-destruction can't come back now that they're in power. They went too far. You ain't seen nothin' yet.

Temp worker companies are where many will have to go. Most companies don't want to commit to a long term employee that costs a ton. Most companies have a short term project that needs completion then out the door with you. It's going to be catch as catch can for still in business companies as small projects pop up, get completed and then go into hibernation until the next project/contract gets let.
