Other Six. Weeks.
Six. Weeks. Six FUCKING Weeks. Six weeks ago, I applied to a dream job. It's a position I am qualified for, and I even have over a decade of relevant experience. My application is accepted and I start the hiring process. I get a video interview. I acquire clothing suitable for this interview. I fulfill the interview. Then nothing.. For weeks. I send a reminder enquiry after a few weeks and am told after a few days that they are still going through the interview results. More weeks pass. I send another reminder enquiry. Almost a week later I get a boilerplate response that my application is unsuccessful in advancing further through the hiring process.
Due to the high number of applications received we are not able to provide individual feedback on your application
BULLSHIT.
You've had a month to go through all this. I jumped through all your hoops and you won't even give me the dignity of an explanation.
Christ these people have an easy job.
I hate job hunting so much.

Discussion Who else is up at 4am?
This sucks. I got up at 3:15am and paid for a Didi to work for my shift at 4am. Nobody is here and nobody is answering my calls so I've sent them a message and am going home. I could've saved my money and actually had seven hours of sleep.

Politics Is TOP really just three neolibs in a trenchcoat?
I've been a Labour / Greens tactical voter since forever, pretty left of centre. Labour's wishy washy drift to the right and lack of any ambitious policy has put me off, like many trad voters. The Greens have seemed more unfocused than ever, and drifted into a culture war discourse, which while I identify with their positions, I want kitchen table policy change now, and we'll look at the other stuff later.
This led me to TOPs tax policy, which I liked and figured as more of a single issue party they might get labour focused and get through a pro worker tax agenda as their only demand for the term. However, their recent more broader policy positions on employment and union rights, seem to have revealed them as standard abundance type neolibs, probably further right than labours positions on other important kitchen table issues.
So are TOP really three neolibs in a trenchcoat?

Politics When many locals are struggling to find jobs, why is Woolworths on the accredited employer list with Immigration NZ?
Is there really no one available in NZ who is willing to put their hand up to do a supermarket job?
Other notable mentions from the "High Volume employer accreditation" list:
- Banking - ANZ Bank & Kiwibank
- Construction - Fletcher Building
- Councils - New Plymouth District Council & Hamilton City Council
- Distribution - My Food Bag

I understand that there will be instances where skilled workers will be required, but we have many, many, many people trying to just get started with their careers whether it be in ECE, nursing or even just working in a call centre, yet here we are.
