I hate being a recruiter realizing this new generation of candidates suck
I'm a recruiter for a small-town staffing agency in a rural part of the Pacific Northwest, where the population is about 40,000. Lately, I've been encountering some of the most challenging candidates I've ever worked with, and it leaves me feeling hopeless about the upcoming generation.
I’m a millennial, a generation often criticized for being “privileged and lazy,” but the 18- to 30-year-olds I see now are on a different level. Many move here because our minimum wage is high—nearly double that of Texas—but they arrive with no job lined up and often move in with parents who relocated from California. They frequently have no skills, leave jobs after three months, and bomb interviews so badly it feels intentional. I’ve had to stop interviews to ask, “Do you even want this job? Because you’re not coming across like you do.”
When I try to give people the benefit of the doubt—like explaining away employment gaps as time spent caring for a loved one—it usually turns out they’ve been homeless, on drugs, or in prison. They get angry at me when my clients won’t hire candidates with criminal records, despite it being entirely within the employer’s rights. I’ve heard countless arguments like, “I’ve changed my ways,” from people who are on their third prison stint for the same crime, just got out of jail, or can’t even legally drive because of multiple DUIs. And somehow, I’m the one they’re frustrated with when they can’t be considered for driving jobs.
What’s worse is the lack of preparation. Resumes are barebones—sometimes listing only high school graduation from 10 years ago and two months at Taco Bell. Then they wonder why no one is interested. Many seem to expect a job to fall into their lap and think they should start at $16/hour with no relevant experience.
If this is where we’re headed, I worry for the future of our workforce and society.

The US has high enough immigration rates that even a significant amount of black sheep don't have an impact overall.
I'm not exactly a tech worker, at least not the type you guys mean, but I work for an electronics company.
I have been part of the quality department for a couple of years. The quality department is entirely populated by incompetent retards and I've been able to move up pretty quickly without a degree. I don't make great money but again, no degree. Currently 2 other departments are trying to poach me, the production and engineering department.
Production job would be a supervisor position with like 20 direct reports. The engineering department would be potentially at the bottom rung ,but I may be able to negotiate myself an okay deal as the dude seems to like me okay. The quality job would remain the same but I've created my own role sort of . I have decent growth path and influence but it's all pretty unofficially.

Go for either you can't go wrong. Engineering is comfy. Production might get you closer to business which is how you make real money if you can move up, but does that even happen? I'd bet engineering is the best option (less pressure, more intellectually stimulating).
>I've created my own role sort of . I have decent growth path and influence but it's all pretty unofficially.
I'm in pretty much the same boat, very comfy defining your own role, but I am pretty much ready to move on too. I just don't see much more growth here. I'm still challenged but it's just the same stuff over and over.
Good luck.

Thanks bros. I want both prestige and legit growth. The engineering team has more inherent prestige, at least it does at my company. It has the greatest opportunity for skill growth but production likely has more opportunity for professional growth. Quality has the most potential for growth but virtue of having such a small talent pool, I've already made pretty high connections and pushed through projects I never would have been on had I been on another team.
But to one dudes point,I'm not particularly happy or satisfied . I think I'm gonna go engineer.what a wild week holy shit

Right. It's not directly a race thing, the Whites tend to be at the frontier of anti-structural movements in the US because we recognize that the country is no longer ours and the public institutions are meant to harm, not help us. Europeans, still being majorities in their countries, are at the stage the US was in the 70s and 80s and think there's just something temporarily wrong that will be sorted out.

So I'm in my mid 30s and have been working for over a decade. The answer very well may be no.
What does a job get you? Stability? Home ownership? sex?
No it lets you buy more expensive imported trinkets until they lay you off. It's actually not really worth the stress if you don't have any debt. You might as well stay with your parents and play video games, you'll be happier.
I got fired the other year and an older woman from church actually told me I suddenly looked really healthy like a week later. Is giving that up worth $70k for a couple years until the next round of layoffs comes?

This is the internal equivalent to venmoing the treasury. You get zero benefit from it (not even perceived benefit.)
People bootlick by mistake, not because it's a good strategy. You want to be tactful and follow your leaders but don't bootlick.

Again I don't think you know what a nazi is. I doubt you've read Mein Kampf or listened to any of Hitler's speeches. You're doing the boomer thing where you heard someone on TV tell you what the thing is and stopped thinking right there. It's very similar to the people who think Communism and Democracy are opposed.

I used it to reverse proxy a folder on a home server to my website, so now I can just throw files on it like my music and I can access it from work or my phone without having to upload it to my webserver or port forward and expose my home network. It truly does feel like we're finally living in the future.

Fucking every weekend something breaks without fail. Are virtual servers this unstable? Should we even be putting more apps on a single server or even virtualizing it?
I swear we reinvent the wheel multiple times to only realize why we moved on from that tech.
In example a thin client is just a newer version of a mainframe computer. With all of the headache to go with it too. They then had to give these clients some hardware so its like a computer but shitter since its main resources are held in the server.

LMAO no. They're a stepping stone to something actually useful. Predictive AI is only that. When deterministic AI gets developed that can code, it's game over for programmers that are anything less than exceptional.
Computers don't innovate, and we're far from AI being able to genuinely outperform human creativity.

he's definitely meming but I could see companies trying to penny-pinch by skimping out on windows/microsoft product licenses. apple makes their corpo/gubberment money on hardware instead so it's a buy once cry once deal, whereas microsoft has been doing de-facto SaaS since before you were born
it's why they used to be everywhere in schools; school boards couldn't justify yearly costs of microsoft product licenses, but could occasionally save up a big chunk of change to drop on all new iMacs then use them until 2015
i think these days it's just the companies having non-technical people working there who want macs so they get macs to be "competitive" without paying people more, and because retarded codemonkeys get macbooks when they finally get their first real job they rationalize them as better instead of realizing that 99% of cooooding can be done on any platform

unix wasn't unix after its 3rd release wym. we coding philosophy or software. sometimes cutting corners so development can catch up in other areas can open solutions to older problems. we dont need to write perfect code anymore if we have optimizers to do so and we dont produce orchestras of bit precise software working together if the average person only uses it as a video player or doc viewer. i mean safety equipment is a different story.

Yes. I have used dockers on my windows machine for development purposes. You said updating but I never had a problem with it working there. I still see no reason to use Linux.

I also just use winblows. I tried installing mint one time and there were a comical number of problems on a clean install. Random green lines across my screen for no reason, randomly putting my pc to sleep in the middle of me doing something etc etc.

sadly the reason windows runs the way it does it because (the lack of trying to clean it up since they can resell you software then) also the wide range of support creates bloat which can be slow but necessary if your human and want to use the machine you bought. major companies have been donating more to linux as it has a permanent market share. so support will only increase even then installing an os is a complicated task. i've installed incorrect windows versions and had the same number of problems for the same reason. software support. hit and miss sometimes. i've had hardware that dislikes new code. i've had hardware that dislike old code. machine that reboot 3 times before successful launches. os can be like fuel for your car. if you have the proper setup youll be flying around or you can stall your engine.

Did you have an IT department stymieing you? Because that's an obvious reason you would prefer not to use Windows.
That's not even touching on the fact that on Linux you're less likely to have corporate-mandated spyware.

how many companies are out there where everyone essentially does nothing?
It feels like a paradox because somebody somewhere’s gotta be doing something, but each individual person is doing nothing

we live in a fiat world. the value of all things is hidden and the way you make money is not in something productive like food, housing, maunfacturing). Before the federal reserve, and before we got off the gold standard, you got earned wealth from producing valuable things that progressed and supported humanity. Thats why food, real estate (the actual real estate not this speculative flipping shit), and manufacturing were the backbone of all societies. Trump is a jew pet, but he was hitting on something with the tarriffs. But he's not following through. You're suppose to get rid of the Fed and close up your borders to fix the economy.

Nothing. The real use of ICE is go after anti Israel people. ICE just got the biggest budget out of most things you pay for in the government. Biggest in ages. This is a powerplay of using a police force against not only the immigrants they plan to flood into the US more (thanks to Israel), but to also go after anyone that says anything bad against it. We've reached the endgame of the fiat pyramid scheme. Remember, fiat is only enforced by violence. Because the citizens have lost trust in the dollar, the state and the international masters are going to turn on the US citizens (and Europe) to basically metaphorically "whip" them into full on slavery.
Welcome to Weimar and post Bolshevik Russia. And we havent gotten to the killings yet.

Yeah seems a little too on the nose. The "even if they weren't" part wouldn't make any sense to put in a prompt, and these companies don't give a shit about sending the same copy pasted email to every applicant anyway.
