What kinds of roles have you been applying to? Do you have friends or former colleagues to reach out to about your job hunt? Letting people know you're looking can open a lot of doors, and you're more likely to get an interview if you have someone passing your name along
The thing is, customer-facing roles are constantly open and hiring. Retailers struggle with an insurmountable level of overworked staff with understaffed stores because what you want is exactly the same thing that everyone else wants. We all do. Most stores are just SOS fulfillment centers in disguise. Metric demands are unrealistic and pay doesn’t equate to the level of multifaceted abilities we are required to have. Oh, and those coworkers you don’t want to engage with? God forbid you don’t interact with them on the company platforms they’ve invested so much money into for optics. Hey, we didn’t ask for it, but the blame is on us if we don’t “like, comment, post” so corporate can say they got their money’s worth, right? Everyone is fed up and wants out. You’re up against a staggering amount of competition. So objectively, it’s not a heavy handed ask, but then the reality is that what you’re asking for is basically a Tickle Me Elmo in 1996 and you’re late to the launch. 🫠 😅
