Its rough nowadays with obligations in the morning with family to go into work overnight as well. I tried applying to my area numerous times over a year and get the same set of responses, apologizing as they are not hiring (when the site(s) say they are) or that they are eyeing other candidates’ without meeting face to face to truly gauge the intellect of the applicant in the environment.
I feel there is either no effort on the employer and they take whoever the cheapest option is, or nowadays AI systems to look over/generate resumes.
I need something during the days soon for the sake of my health.

That’s a good point! You’d think that if they need workers that they would respond in more of a timely fashion
100% if an employer doesn’t get back to you in time what makes you think they’re a good boss that’s the whole point is availability. YOU RUN A BUSINESS.
I know I’ve applied at a hobby lobby and they take like months to process
A lot of times it’s simply because there are more applicants than expected. Even if a company wants to fill a position immediately, they may receive dozens or even hundreds of applications and need time to review them, conduct interviews, and complete the hiring process. “Immediate start” usually means they have an urgent need, not necessarily that the hiring process itself will be immediate. When I’m hiring urgently, I unfortunately can’t review every application, mainly because I have anywhere between 100-200 applicants. My advice to you is, apply apply apply!!! You got this 👍
So you need a cap for the amount of applicants this is the problem with the job force is employers don’t regulate who they interview you could’ve missed a 5 star employee because he applied last shame on you. Also strive to be better because if you tried you could check 200 applicants, you felt you didn’t have time but it’s all god gave you.
