Does anyone use 'old school' job hunting tactics? I've started grabbing the local newspaper (yes, ours still exists) and have been looking for job openings in there. You never know.

You may want to talk to a career coach depending on what youre looking for. I don't know any companies that are still advertising jobs in tbe paper

Do you actually find any jobs posted there? I didn't know people were still advertising jobs in the newspaper. Maybe I should give that a try.

I think our local paper pulls job openings from online job boards. I will hop on Craigslist of all places from time to time. Because you’re right, you never know.

I actually like this. Everyone is relying on the same platforms, so going old school might give you an edge. I think it shows effort as well.

I would struggle with this too. Being expected to learn everything without guidance sets you up to fail. I think proper onboarding is a basic responsibility, not optional.
