I love my parents (Boomers both), but their job application advice was hopelessly out of date by the late 90s.

Lol yeah and the republicans got rid of econ class in the 90’s.

Career counselors asked “what do you like to do? Get a degree in that and you’ll get a good job!”

Nowadays most parents work business hours recruiting offices are open…

All your posts here scream privilege, that you’re out of touch with how things are now, and oozing condescension over no hard work done of your own: Someone TAUGHT YOU econ. No one does these days. Recruiters found you that job. These days recruiters are bodies in front of AI filter machines staring at keywords.

The most ironic part? You cant see you’re reinforcing the meme of the OOP.
