I’m a bit frustrated with trying to find a part time job
I’m 19 and I’m still trying to finish up high school (I’m in a program that helps students finish high school and get their diploma), but I’ve considered getting a part time job to start making some money on my own without having to ask my parents for some. However, no matter where I apply, mostly online, I hear nothing back. The one time I tried applying in person was at an Indigo bookstore and they told me I had to send in an application online.
I tried checking Indeed, checking ALIS Alberta every once in a while, checking whatever job postings my school decides to show us, even redoing my resume with professional help. I’m also in the process of finding volunteer work just to boost my resume.
I’m tired man. Even when I try to find someone to contact to see if my job application went through, I usually can’t find any, and when I do (especially for big companies), it’s usually their general/company number that I find and not store specific. With the rampant use of generative A.I. in hiring, I feel like I’m losing my chance in getting a job whatsoever.
