A video complaining about the current state of the job market.

I'm really original.

No one's ever made a video on this topic before.

I'm a real innovator here.

But you know what?

You click on every single video about it and eat it up.

I'd know.

Because I also click on every video on how bad the job market is and eat it up.

You know why you're here.

So let's start complaining.

Full disclosure, I actually do have a job, but put a massive asterisk on job because, I mean, I'm a graduate with a part-time,

minimum wage job I don't like, which is increasingly common.

Of course, there are people who aren't that fortunate I would kill to have my job.

I just want more of life than what I have right now, and it's funny to complain, so let's yell at Clouds.

AHHHHHHHHH For talking about acting professional and being collaborative,

boy do these companies have like no sense of manners.

The amount of times I've been ghosted, I've lost count, I bet you've lost count,

we all know the Unfortunately we're unable to proceed with your application at this time email if you're lucky But honestly, they're like all worded, the exact same,

and probably written by a chatbot.

We'll get to that.

I'm not even talking about the jobs themselves.

Even recruitment agencies, whose job it is to literally find you a job.

I remember one morning, I sat down, I decided, you know what, I'm gonna lock in.

So I sent in my CV to every single recruitment agency in my area.

How many of those recruitment agencies got back to me?

None.

That's how you know it's bad.

By the way, if you've ever applied to jobs online, you know the part where you give them your email, input your number, and all your info, you know your address and all that, so they can, you know,

get back to you about that job.

Yeah, after that, after they've like ghosted you, the companies will 100% sell that information.

If I were a bigger channel, this would be an excellent segue into a VPN ad, but you know, keep dreaming big, you know what I'm saying?

When I entered the adult world and had to start applying for jobs, the amount of spam calls I started getting was absolutely ridiculous.

And I know they're spam calls and not companies reaching out because one, they never follow up or leave a message.

And two, the caller code shows me it's a personal number and not a company number, if the code is even for my country.

Sometimes even hide the number, like unknown number.

I don't even know how they do that.

Also, I don't know how true this part is, so take it with a grain of salt, but I once heard if you just reject the call right away, they know and still consider your number active,

so they keep you on the system.

So if I was using my phone, usually watching YouTube, I just need to let it ring and ring and ring.

Also, some of these websites have an option so recruiters can see your CV, which sounds good on paper, but in practice it isn't.

I had to switch that option off for all the websites I'm on

because no matter what your background is

or how good You know you can have like the best resume ever

But you will exclusively get calls from people hiring for call centers No, the girl who can't draw can't talk to strangers on the phone.

Where you gonna tell me next the sky is blue

meanie oh You gotta walk go in person or send it get a unique way You know if you walk in, most of them are just gonna tell you, oh, do it through a website

It just throw it away the second you walk out of

there now It is worth to try to do it this way It's worked for my dad in the past

But don't expect to just walk in and get the first job available

and everyone's gonna clap you can get rejected this way It's not a one-stop shop also

if you don't have a car It can be tricky unless you have in like a big city or something

So I haven't tried the in-person method, but I have tried sending physical mail

and of course none of them got back to me except for one

which brings me to from the team at Hacksmith Industries

so I decided quite some time ago

that I didn't want to pursue a career in my degree

I went through with it for the piece of paper because oh university you know you're guaranteed success

um and you know you can get work in something related you know

but since my school days my plan b

if my plan a didn't work out was going to business

because i found some parts of the subject actually interesting

so i started looking into an apprenticeship

and accounting i just didn't feel like accumulating more debt than i already had by going back to university

and i generally didn't enjoy it

so i really wanted to keep it as a last resort

and oh my local college is an apprenticeship program what's the

catch you you still have to find the position yourself now i did get sent some contacts

which they've worked with previously

and i decided to stand out i'm gonna send physical mail

you already know the results i mentioned it before one got back to me and offered an interview

oh my gosh a real interview whoa this is awesome i kid you not the day before my interview

or even maybe even the same morning i don't remember i get an email like oh sorry we're not looking anymore Well, I guess, you know, tough luck, I guess.

Maybe someone out there was so good, they decided to cut the process then and there and go with this person?

No, actually, a few weeks later, another male from this same company.

Hey, um, sorry about canceling on you last minute the last time.

Another position opened up, but do you want to come in for an interview?

Now, I still was a bit peeved about what happened, but at my current job, I initially got rejected.

Then the next day, my manager gave a follow-up about being super keen on me and I got it anyway.

So, you know, maybe it could just be a repeat of what happened to me the last time, right?

I'm a lifelong chronic overdresser, so of course I made sure I look absolutely fly for this interview.

I arrived so early, I sat in the car for a few minutes.

Of course, it was a casual wear office, but whatever, it's not the first time I've been overdressed for a function.

So we go through the generic interview stuff like, what is your creative strength and all that stuff.

I'm a bit nervous totally standard, but but I'm not bringing up this story because of the interview itself You want to talk about ghosting?

Literally after the interview when this guy is walking me to the exit he asks me

So have you had any luck finding other positions?

To this day I'm way more offended from this line than the countless amount of times I've been ghosted

which of course he ghosted me after.

This sounds like something you'd make happen to the comic relief

character in a 90s sitcom to follow with a deafening laugh track, but this actually happened.

At least humor me to the door, you know?

I can rant about this for hours, but I won't.

I'm just gonna move on, and I'm gonna hope you get the idea

This is really specific to apprenticeships But don't get me started on the tests that you have to do

Like I get taking tests for these sorts of things, but they give you so little time and the question is something like

If Timmy buys five apples and balances seven bananas on his nose, how many kangaroos will it take to build a rocket?

By the way, I don't want you to get me twisted as a falling under the stereotype of artist who's like really bad at math.

I'm actually pretty good at math.

If I wasn't, I wouldn't have tried to get into accounting.

100

You think I'm passionate about spreadsheets or something.

101

And again, this is if they reach back to you at all, which again, they usually don't.

102

Another struggle if you decide, you know what, I want to change career,

103

is that you're either not qualified at all for the entry-level positions because your background is just too unrelated, Or, this is even worse,

104

if your knees deep in your career, or a graduate who regrets their decisions like me, if you try to take a step back to retrain,

105

you get the overqualified response.

106

Like, is this Goldilocks?

107

I just can't win these people.

108

So of course, I fail these silly little tests, keep getting ghosted, and then guess what?

109

The college cancelled the program.

110

No!

111

I can't even make this up.

112

What level of bad luck is this?

113

Did somebody hex me or something?

114

Oh, you know what?

115

I'll just keep looking into companies who are giving the program independently Well, it turns out all the companies in my area did their program through my local college

116

So now they can't take on applicants anymore either.

117

I had one company who's keen to interview me, but I got turned away for that reason Anyway,

118

after that I never touched numbers again THE END except it's not the end Yo,

119

bimbouni- Oi, samui na, shimero EME NAN NO WERE NONE MAKE HOME NONE I already know with a lot of jobs,

120

a bit reason you get turned down is because the CEO's nephew got the job or some current employee recommended a friend, blah blah blah It's especially like

121

that in the arts I didn't really make any friends in my university course I had a couple in societies, but even then they're all in the same boat as you

122

the same boat as you you've got to give it a year

123

or two before your friends can get you some jobs

124

my course didn't have a placement year for some reason

125

and i didn't get noticed at all at my exhibition despite my final being

126

so different and standing out but i did get one position

127

somewhat related to what i did oh well it was a two hour drive

128

and it was all sewing i hate sewing

129

and before you type it yes i shot myself in the foot

130

that was very stupid and now Now you will look stupid if you point it out because I said it already, but I did not apply for this position.

131

My dad's friend happened to know someone.

132

Um, I studied costume design.

133

Yeah, it's not the usual suspects like animation

134

or illustration for these types of channels or the opposite extreme

135

or someone who posts the most stunning art studied law or something.

136

Demand is high, but connections are everything.

137

A lot of creative jobs don't tend to post on the usual websites, there are some specialist ones which my university recommended, so they're not scammy, but I've had no luck on that end either.

138

Yeah, connections are great until someone else reaps the benefits, or you shoot yourself in the foot.

139

On to the next point.

140

Ghost jobs are a thing.

141

I'm not gonna linger on this too long because I've never encountered a ghost job for myself, so I have nothing to say about this.

142

There's a lot of videos which do a better job at explaining this than I can.

143

You know, maybe I've applied to some, but I can't tell the difference because the real ones never get back to me either anyway, and they both have really generic descriptions probably written by a chatbot.

144

Yes, we're going there.

145

So here's your ice-cold take of the day.

146

I don't like how much AI is being shoved down my throat

147

I don't really care about companies being like Oh don't use AI in your application because I don't use AI anyway,

148

so it doesn't affect me

149

But what I do care about is how they use AI to write their job listings

150

or even worse conducts the interviews I've never encountered one of these before because, well, you've basically heard my entire interview history.

151

It's just such a slimy double standard.

152

When you do it, you're cheating, but when they do it, oh, we're innovating, we're pioneering.

153

What other company jargon can I use here?

154

Something, something, clanker.

155

Something, something.

156

So, what can we learn from this here rant?

157

I don't really know.

158

I just wanted a screaming to the void you know, can you blame me?

159

But jokes aside, these sorts of videos always help me feel less alone, and I just wanted to have a laugh about how cooked we are.

160

So hey, if you're feeling seasick as you crouch in the corner of the ship as it sways in the storm, here I am with you.

161

So, do you actually have a solution?

162

Me?

163

No, absolutely not.

164

First of all, I will get this out the way.

165

the irony of using Genshin Impact gameplay as outro footage of a video about not being able to find a job

166

is absolutely not flown past me.

167

I haven't played this boss since it came out for obvious reasons, but I needed the materials for Gordon Ramsay.

168

I did eventually beat it, but I thought this failed run was funnier, so enjoy me getting beat up.

169

By the way, I can't do the 90.

170

I have to fight the 80 of this boss and just this boss.

171

so yeah i had a cute little outro illustration planned out

172

i wanted i wanted something a bit more high effort for the outro

173

but um i have a nine hour flight in checks time 24 hours

174

and i wanted to get this video out before then um this video is supposed to take me a month

175

and it took me double that so i hope you understand

176

and bear with i'll have something better for the next one promise.

177

Anywho, thank you for watching my first ever YouTube video.

178

How rude of me to not introduce myself for those in the back or who are watching this while you're drawing.

179

Don't worry, I get it.

180

My name's Razami.

181

Thought I'd throw my hat in the ring with YouTube.

182

I know there's been an uptick in channels like this.

183

I've been eating up that content.

184

And they usually make these cute little intro videos, which probably was a good idea, but for me at least was just an excuse to procrastinate this one

185

because I'm a nervous wreck and I'm terrified of putting myself out there.

186

Shocker, the artist is shy.

187

I hope my little rant was fun to watch.

188

I've got a couple of ideas floating around in my head for future videos already, so hopefully you'll stick around for that.

189

Do all the things the algorithm likes to see if you feel compelled to.

190

All the technical jazz I use, like my tablet, etc. in the description.

191

That's about it.

192

Yep.

193

Bye!

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
