    why cant i just give my resume to the government and they find me a fucking job :meow-tableflip:

    and yeah i had the same thing with getting ghosted late in the process. pretty sure they figure out im trans at some point when digging through my records and they go poof. im hyper qualified in what i do. still have a job rn but i would like one that pays less shit. like every fucking interview theyre like 'oh wow youre very qualified, oh wow you answered the questions great, oh wow would you like to be a team lead???' and then they just gtfo

      They do that in Hungary, but it's really just they call you after two weeks saying "we haven't found anything but you can be a streetcleaner for half the minimum wage" and if you don't take it they'll stop sending you unemployment benefits too.

        They do that in Denmark as well, only they pretend they it's not an actual job and legally you're still classified as unemployed. This means that not only do you have to work a full time job for dogshit wages with no labour rights, you also have to deal with bureaucratic job centre bullshit and be able to document that you're applying for at least two jobs a week. Otherwise you get nothing.

      Pre-80s China was literally just this, you would graduate from uni/HS, declare your intent for employment, and the government would assign you something that fit your qualifications, prioritizing places close to where you lived. There would still be an approvals and interview process but it was actually to assess how good you were at your job and not to jerk off about connections or giving you personality quiz grifts.
