Yup. I interview but is at one north then push me to bukit batok and push me to marina one then rescinded me, answer is head count, ignore me
Sam me here
I agree I cannot find a Job
They always say they're hiring to have a backup staff.
Same! Iv had interviews, and they went great, or so I thought then comes the rejection letter, or ghosted completely. But most jobs iv applied for that i would be a good match at dont even open my application...
Iv noticed that alot of these companies are either not actually hiring, or they are promoting from within so they interview outside candidates with no intention of hiring. And after some research the companies that dont open the applications might have the ATS or whatever the AI screening tool is called on, so good candidates get rejected before the HM even sees the application. I updated my resume to get past the AI screening tool, and have had 3 people contact me since then 😁
I have been applying since December 2025, 30 years of experience, have had 1 interview and they went with a younger individual with degrees. I feel your frustration.
I tell everyone inquiring at my store to apply, then follow up with a call after they apply so I can schedule an interview. 98% of those calling get jobs. My philosophy is- if you want a job, you will call about the status of the application. I see 30- 75 apps the first 3 days my reqs are open. 90% of those applications- the contact info is wrong on so I can call or email to set interviews up. Most of the people in my reqs, for sales associates, are applying for dss or unemployment purposes, not to really find a job. Another thing I find is that most corporations don't want to hire full-time employees. Our payroll budgets leave us about 4 hrs a week to hire new staff, and not many adults can live on less than 100 a week.
