These companies want unicorns with multiple Masters degrees and 10+ years of experience for entry-level roles. It's ridiculous.
And then these same companies cry about labour shortages. Bunch of 🤡s
I applied for a job that I met 100% of the job description. My resume was tailored exactly to it. I sent a personal note talking about how I love what they do and how much autism means to me. I was instantly rejected.
Sometimes, it's not about your skills. It's about if you'll be a good fit, and by that I mean if you're the "right" race. Keep applying to other companies, regardless.
@@KaranKumar-di9fwWhat "race" do you need to be?
@@Snk13_tythe right one
@@Snk13_ty Indians only hire their own.
yes that's happened to me both recently and past situations as well. From my experience...either they may already have somebody lined up internally to take that position or working with a recruiter they are partnered with…they just have to put the job posting out there and let it stay up for certain period of time but slow on taking the job posting down. I've seen it happen before in previous jobs situations or it could be some AI bot thats processing stuff lol you never know what AI is doing these days lol . But anyway I know one thing.....what ever God has for you is for you brother keep digging till you strike gold
I think it happened to me a couple of times. I agree with you Kevin, hiring managers and even HR people, could take a few minutes to learn about a candidate and given them a shot.
Always make a call and ask some questions before applying. So you're on their radar before they get your resume. Then in your motivational letter, remind them if the date of your call.
Also: make your resume and motivation letter as short and simple to read. HR just hates to read.
Always try to imagine as if your going to communicate with the most lazy and non interested people on the planet , when applying.
try calling tech companies in your area and ask if they're hiring. only way i got a job.
No one hiring over here. NY at a hiring freeze at the moment.
@@KevtechITSupportHave you tried remote or government? You have a lot of experience.
Maybe I'm one of the lucky folks but that hasn't happened to me yet... I work in IT in NY and always get a call or email requesting an interview when I apply for places. Not to mention the many recruiters that reach out to me on linkedin..No college degree with 7 years of experience. Crazy how you haven't been able to find anything yet.
I apply for a job almost 5 weeks ago. They finally got back to me this week saying that there reviewing my resume.
If this was a position in healthcare IT, i would say that sounds about right. I know some HR depts are just incompitent but a big reason is IT depts trying to promote from within and hold these positions open on job sites as a formality. Hospitals do this for union members when postings come out. If I see a position open at my place, I'll keep.you in mind.
@@MrTps1680 sounds good. Job market is pretty bad right now.
It has been may be rejected by ATS resume checker.
Try to see if your resume is ATS compliant.
Not true, it is not ATS... happened to me 2 weeks ago. I left my company 4 months ago due to my manager's abusive and unethical tactics,.
I gave my job a 4 weeks notice. I wanted to test the job market (even though I don't need to), and I have been getting rejections left and right.
I got a rejection email in less than a minute.
I thought it was ATS, so I had 3 different people send the same resume but of course, their names and other info were changed, and they haven't got a rejection yet.
I believe they can blacklist your name.
It could be a couple of things, the ATS system could be looking at your employment length in your previous jobs and exclude you because you didn't stay at your job for a certain amount of time. Some recruiters and hiring managers will see that as a flight risk, where you'll get bored and look for a new job within 1 or 2 years.
Another reason is the jobs you are applying to are not looking to be filled by the company who posted them. This is a common tactic to show that a company is growing and expanding to investors. It can be viewed that if a company doesn't have active recruitments, then they are stagnating, and their stocks can take a negative hit.
As an 50 yr old trying to transition into IT from a 21yr law enforcment career, this is very deflating. If someone with your knowledge, experience and ability is having difficulty getting a position, how does someone with no experience even get a look. At times learning and studying for all these certs just seems pointless. Hate to be a downer but I can be too much of a realist.
People are still getting jobs on my discord and linkedin.
Every case and opportunity is different. Maybe this role turned out to be filled, or it was an ATS issue. Don't give up hope
That happened to me recently. You're not alone, Kev.
I feel you man, even if i have the most advance certs and skills to back it up.i still get rejected. its crazy time man.
Yep
they want to hire their cronies, meaning they want to hire certain people from their colleges.
It happened to me for a interview but not for a rejection
I've experienced this before and it absolutely sucks.
I am in FL and I am facing this as well. Rejection within a few minutes - few hours, ghost, interview then ghost. Don't get me started with recruiters ask me for my resume then ghosted me afterwards, and I did follow up with them.
Only time I had this happen is because I was applying for a position that I definitely wasn't qualified for. Doesn't sound like that was the case for you so idk that really isn't a good system that they have in place.
I happened to me here in the caribbean,company advertise anonymously in the newspaper. I applied,got the interview and when they saw where i lived on resume, I was instantly rejected because it was too far from their office. Now mind you, when I attended the interview I got to their office 4hrs before they opened. It's crazy out here. I wish I was told all these stupid tricks these companies play while attending school growing up so i could've been better prepared. Getting ready to move on from my current job,since it is not going anywhere
Great stuff as always thank u!
they dont deserve you, good for u not to waste time with them

I hate to say this but as a black man myself sometimes they don't want a minority in the position. You can be qualified but not a "fit" for them
That's also true
bs, stop playing the victim and be better.
@patman4917 that's a real thing. I was discriminated in a job because I'm hispanic. Please don't judge people if you never were in there shoes.
They reject simply because they have obligation to keep the job advertizement going. yet don't rly need someone
Happened to me, spend time to made the resume then checked it hour later to know how many applied, says not selected. I was like 80% qualified and checked the description, even tailored it.
It's been happening to me for over a year now bro.
This is everyday life of your students but will. Not give up. I apply 20 to 30 jobs s day and get rejected 😢😢uk London. This is the norms in information technology.
HR has to post the jobs... but they are hiring within the company has nothing to do with you
I never talked about HR in this video. I talked about hiring managers. Obviously, hr will go with references first before posting a job.
first mistake is posting an entry level job add with 3+ years exp wanted how the hell is it entry level if you expect someone to have seasonsed experience??
@@TreITTech true
@@KevtechITSupport love your content brother. I recently got the Google IT Cert, pegging for the A+ now ! Looking to break into the tech field !!
I got rejected 1 minute after leaving the interview. I got a message on my linkedin
It happens.
Bro I have a degree and experience and get declined for ducking help desk tier 1 WTF
Hi Kevin can you do a tutorial on Citrix workspace ?
You can't get a license for that. Unless your job uses it or your a business. So I can't cover that.
How do I teach myself this
@jameslos4733 you can't really get work experience on citrix. You can signed up for an account and do training and probably watch some videos on CZcams. Old videos on citrix.
Not on you
Everyday!
You're not entitled to a job just because you feel you are qualified. Companies don't need to respond or provide feedback. Also, you might get better audio out of your Blue Yeti if you turn the logo facing your mouth.
The audio sounds fine to me. I'm using a high end headset. As far as jobs are concerned. I agree with you. Companies can do whatever they want.
This happened to me alot.
hi kevin i love your content, i wanna take your help desk course on udemy but its a bit too pricey for me at the moment do you have any coupon codes?
Better off just waiting until I launch my new course
@@KevtechITSupport oh cool, is it also gonna be a help desk intro course?
@@jmelchor29 some helpdesk and some system admin stuff
@@KevtechITSupport cool im looking forward to it.
