Not sure if it's any harder at the moment, thankfully I've been employed over the last year but I recommend you check out the Referral Bowl, people are very generous with the referrals there: https://www.fishbowlapp.com/bowl/job-referrals-qif9-5

Where are you looking for jobs at the moment? Are you struggling to find job to apply for or getting past the application stage?

Get past the applications stage. I look at indeed and the algorithm is pretty spot on. I will also look up companies and check out their career pages.

What's your background like? Have you gotten any feedback as to why you're getting rejected?

I have event planning, marketing coordination, and fashion. I want to do something in those three and I have years of experience in all three. Through college I worked full time and had two internships. My background is pretty well rounded and I have great references. I have a double bachelors in Marketing and Finance from a Cal State and then a minor in entrepreneurship.

No really, what part of the process are you struggling with?

The getting interviews part, I have a strong resume and anytime I do get an interview they rave about my resume but it seems like anything I apply for someone with way more qualifications gets it even though I have the minimum requirement if not a bit more.

I have a job in the fashion industry but I want to work remote cause we will be doing a bit of moving the next two years and want something steady.
