You're definitely not alone because I am going through the same thing as you. This job market is way beyond horrible because recruiters and hiring managers are not interested in hiring anybody. The only thing recruiters and hiring managers are doing is making up BS excuses by saying that employees don't want to work and that's not true. The plain and simple truth is that recruiters and hiring managers don't know what they want because they are too focused on finding the "perfect job candidate" and sadly no such person exists. Recruiters and hiring managers have very high and very unrealistic expectations because they are just not satisfied with what they already have. They're very nit-picky and will just reject anyone who doesn't fit their criteria. They need to stop being so nit-picky and they need to stop playing games with us job seekers. They're not helping us job seekers. All they're doing is wasting our time

It's at all levels and professions. They look for the person who'll take the lowest salary regardless of experience.

Your right! More money for the company, and management gets bonuses.

The job market right now is just not great. So don't be too hard on yourself, it's not just you. A lot of companies are just going through the motions and not really doing much hiring. And it's very much an employer's market, they can just reject almost anyone.

This is something I'm experiencing. I have what companies are asking, Work Experience, Education, and the work-related people skills that jobs are asking for. After applying with my resume or accepting an interview, I later get the professional statements employers give, (we've moved on to other candidates), etc. Yes this is happening to me. It's a true fact that looking for a good job is (A Job): within it's self. But as stated above achieving the same professional statement, This can be both frustrating and upsetting alone with the weeks, or months of time that passes and I'm finding myself "still" unemployed.

They can't afford you. If someone will do the job and except less they will hire them. Most of us already know healthcare is all about how much money they can make not always about the quality of care.

Those positions usually start off around 20 an hour depending on where you live

Another thing I don’t understand; why companies post a job without posting the wage they go pay for the open position?

My question is:
