I called to complain about my pizza order and I heard “Hire that man!”

Well, for the longest time employers were taking multiple interviews and months to decide.

Anyone in Orlando want to offer me a job at $20/HR or more, hit me up. Crazy strong credentials. Multiple degrees.

And credit for this hot job market goes to B. Hussein Obama.
Just ask him. He’ll tell you.

Doesn’t mean we should open the floodgate for immigration as the left claims.
And by the way, Bernie will sue you if these jobs don’t pay $15 an hour!

Ive had to fill three jobs that were night and weekend jobs. If they showed up for the interview, passed the drug test, and said they would work the hours...they were hired.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Sounds like America to me. Supply and demand and even wage or salary increases...

I don’t see a tight IT job market at all.
The last US-based recruiter I talked to described was having trouble filling positions because the employer wanted new-hires in the office 5 days a week, while the candidates wanted remote work.

I just switched jobs, two days ago. I got a phone call asking for my res and at the same time they asked when I wanted to start. I was halfway joking and said today, they said come on in. ( I did have an inside reference though).
But yeah, it is full steam ahead around here.

50 pct of all employers require drug tests. That’s part of the problem.

Our grand kids and grand nephews/nieces, who had good paying jobs in the summer are getting great offers to work this Thanksgiving and Christmas from their summer bosses and others. Many are offering great discounts if they come to work.
