Right there it shows you have reliability and can handle stress.

Any employer that would shun and discredit a person who is a caregiver is an employer that I would not want to work for. It says an awful lot about their character.

Do you really think those places can openly admit they only hire people from the inside and employee referrals? I believe that would defeat the whole purpose of posting fake openings.

Corn-fused is not talking about "some people" who don't like online applications. He is talking about YOU. It is clearly obvious that it's you who is on a crusade against online applications. I have not seen anyone here other than you rail against online applications nonstop. Sure some may dislike them, but they bite the bullet and take the time to apply.

Advising others to only look for jobs that give the option to email a resume is not advice. That is not groundbreaking information that most of us couldn't think of on our own. You think that just because you are a "job counselor" that you know more than other people? You haven't said a thing that has not already been said by job counselors of days gone by. You have no new information that isn't readily available online or is common sense.

No dear. You made the statement and now it's time to show some source of the statement that you made. And I quote:

"Most places that require you to complete online applications usually post fake jobs and you have to know someone to get in the door."


The fact that you cannot post a source means that you are talking out of your and your credibility has sunken even further than I thought possible.

Further, how would you know what MOST places do? How in the world are you in multiple places at once to know their inner workings?

Actually I'm the job search strategist and enjoy helping others find new way of seeking employment.

But what you are saying isn't new. You have no advice that others have not heard before.

Since when does 4 companies represent most? I am still waiting on that valid source and not your opinion.
