What is with and boomers asking for experience? I just graduated college. Obviously I don't have 3+ years of experience. I thought these were supposed to be entry level positions.
They didn't start life with this deal so why are they giving it to my generation?
Just lie, it's not illegal in most countries
it's not lying you worked as an independent contractor for over 10 years in your chosen profession however your client list is private due to NDA concerns.
you lie. but only if you're smart enough to learn while working without fucking things up.
Jeets son.... always jeets.
We have the combined force of boomers booming, jeets flooding and inflating the skills market, and women getting gibs for being a hole.
>Just lie
I just started life. I can’t just lie already.
dumbass this whole system is created to fuck wagies like you, the least you could do is lie about your resume
everyone is vaccinated, no one can think straight anymore. you can lie your way through the interview
clinging to their positions well past retirement age by constructing artificial and needless barriers to entry, barriers they themselves did not need to overcome.
These are the same boomers who complain about their college-grad kids not being able to find a good job and needing to lean on them for financial support and no, they are not capable of the introspection required to understand the irony of their situation or how they themselves have created it. If they were they would have retired a decade ago.

Employers are so fucked
They will actually avoid hiring purely out of laziness in wanting to hire someone and make them aware of the systems used by the company
I have personally witnessed this myself where someone leaves, and I’m left picking up the slack, while they claim “we’re looking for someone” and they will spend 6 months denying every single applicant that could easily be made aware of how shit works in a week or 2 and be productive after that, but they’d rather wait 6 months or more to find some brutally overqualified person whose barely going to be anymore productive than just hiring someone and teaching them
I honestly get where you're coming from, you shouldn't lie in the vast majority of situations. But the job market is humiliating enough as is as a wagie, you need to level the playing field in some way or go insane. If the job listing has a "competetive salary", then I have 3-4 years of experience in whatever they're looking for.
If you want to get the job, send them a letter saying.
"Looking to land an entry level job, willing to work for 30K"
Most entry level positions are around 60k to 80k salary. By lowballing your salary you get your foot in the door and then can transfer companies after a year.
Your competition lies.
The people you graduate with lie.
If you don't, they will beat you at every single opening. Sorry fren, but the sooner you understand this the sooner you become employed. I hated it as much as you do. And its not a generational thing. Millennials graduating college in 2007 and beyond were just as fucked. No idea what it was like for Late Gen X who graduated after 2001, but couldn't have been as magical as the 90's.
The funniest thing is that those sale boomers got jobs right out of high school.
Yeah that sounds like my best bet.
enjoy taking your your 5th boostershot soon
Stop being a pussy OP and just lie on your resume.
i did this and it worked out for me for the last 5 years of my employment. they only have to like you and you can stay, lie or not.
Millennial here. Boomers did this to my generation too. You have to lie. You have no other option. You say you have years of experience on your CV and you fake it until you learn it. Once I understood that lying is really easy to get away with my career took off.
It's because of employment law. It's too much of a risk to teach an inexperienced person now because you can't fire them easily if it turns out they suck. Of course boomers are to thank for that too. They protected their own jobs at the expense of the next generation.
Don’t have experience? Then go work for free as an intern to get it. You want a good job? You got to put in the effort and sacrifice for it.
