I have been unemployed since age 18 (now 20). I have applied constantly for jobs since then and have had no success, while all my friends have and tbh it's starting to feel personal. One week last year I applied to 35 jobs in one day (i counted) and not a single one even told me I didn't have the job. This is humiliating and stressful and it just makes me feel depressed

I just wanted to rant. I hate this fucking hamster wheel of society we live in. I am a good worker and no one will fucking hire me

What can I do to even get a job in this fuckin hellscape

    my impression is that most places have caught on to the invisible-text trick and now have measures to get around it (the crudest of which is the whole ridiculous thing of making you also paste your whole resume into a bunch of text boxes on their application form)

      Oh shit, that's why they do that. I never put two and two together
