Should I start applying for these jobs where I don't meet every requirement? I meet most of the requirements. I'm always two or three bullet points away from my dream job.

Oh, I say yes! Those requirements are more of a wish list. No one ever checks every box. Go ahead and apply for it. What do you have left to lose?

Definitely! And who hasn't seen those notices about how women and POC tend to not apply if they don't meet every last requirement. It's a real thing. Just go for it!

Apply anyway. A lot of jobs are willing to train, and the right cultural fit is usually better than having somebody who meets all the technical requirements but doesn't have the right personality.

Definitely apply! Especially if it's a long list of "requirements."

Currently working at CNA and have noticed that people that come into the company are making more than people that have been here for years. Is this common ? Also what is the average starting salary for an APD adjuster ?

I found a company I was really excited about working at. I applied for the job and went through 5 rounds of interviews. At the end they said I was OVER qualified and they want me for a different position higher up in the company. I was super excited they then had me go through 5 more rounds, 3/5 people were the same. The interviews mostly went "didn't you get the job, I highly recommend you? I'll just put you down as a 10". After those were done they told me I was UNDER qualified. Can't win!
