When i call ppls resumes to offer them jobs in a professional setting in Boston, 40k year starting with decent benefits and no real experience about half of the young people i talk to are like "yeahhh...im strictly looking for an internship, though ..." and i laugh a lot

why do they say this, are they just politely trying to turn down your job offer?



I think it's because their advisors told them it's the only way to get a job in their field

yeah, I'm totally sure people are turning down your job offers left and right, because you're trying to pay them when they don't want it. That sounds totally in line with reality

There was a guy in the dumb D&D version of the LEt Them Eat Cake thread a while ago complaining about how terrible and unskilled the workforce is, his job is trying to hire programmers and they can't find anybody competent. They were offering like $14/hour or something lol

I've been in a hiring position for 18 months now and you'd be amazed at the rate of people who don't even show up for job interviews. Its seriously about 60%, plus those who need to reschedule for some idiot reason, plus those who turn down a position cuz they don't want to drive 10 miles.
