has anybody else experienced this? i’m about to graduate college the end of this month so i’ve been looking for some assistant photographer jobs and there have been 4 jobs i tried applying to that brought me to a third party website that wanted me to pay for premium to submit my application. there was only 1 out of 4 jobs that i was able to find a careers section on the website and apply directly, but no luck for the others. i literally feel like i’m going crazy and it just seems so unfair that these companies are doing this 🥲 is this just an atlanta thing or have people noticed this in other places ?
