when u tell someone who hasn’t had to apply for a job in a while “the interview process is like 6 weeks atp” they don’t believe you but a lot of employers will wait like 2 weeks to follow up, and they always need to do multiple rounds of interviews which takes a week for each round, and then there’s two more weeks of dead silence before you hear back. sometimes you’ll apply for something in january and they will call you up in the summer like “hey you still want the job” it’s crazy. they’re out here putting desk clerks through two phone interviews and two in persons at two different locations. they make the pages interview TWICE and they also have to do TWO sorting tests!! that job pays well below minimum wage, it’s a job meant for retirees and high school students why do you interview them like it requires a mlis

#i had to do a skill test for carson’s too but at least it was only one round of interviews #i know it’s not just libraries bc i applied to two eye doctors four dentists and as a desk clerk type job but idr where #i think they could tell i wasn’t enthusiastic about the job tbh and how dare they put me all those interviews aksjsj #also the one eye care made me refill out my entire resume when i got there. i think they didn’t like that i didn’t drive #but a lot of library workers are also car less lmao. like half of them like me could never afford it so we never got a license #and a good quarter are retirees who do this as basically a hobby and they only have one car so the husband takes the car bc he works farther #that may sound specific but i know like 12 different old white ladies with exactly that story #at goodwill they wrote us up if we were late bc of the train that was literally down the street meanwhile in libraries ur manager is always #late bc she commutes in from The Big City and the most senior person in the department is always late bc the bus was late and her husband #had the car that day and she is the oldest most wrinkled woman you will ever meet. a stiff wind will blow her away. she smokes 8 packs a day #anyway i hate applying for jobs #rani makes text posts no one will read
