What Does it Mean to Have No Experience?
Having “no experience” in a job means you have not held any positions similar to the one you are considering. Companies usually do not require experience for entry-level positions and provide on-the-job training to new staff to ensure they understand the skills needed for the role. Even if you have never held a job, you likely still have many soft and transferable skills that are useful to many industries. Most companies posting no experience jobs look for candidates who are intelligent, reliable, and fast-learners to complete the required job tasks.
What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in an entry-level position with no experience, and why are they important?
I live in NYC and I am struggling to find a real job. I have an updated resume and I have applied for all types of jobs out there, retail, restaurants, fast food, warehouse, security and other stuff but I literally can't find anything at all. I have been looking for so many jobs but I don't get callbacks and I don't get responses anymore. I keep getting rejected and I try to fix my resume and everything available. I am open for anything at the moment except driving because I don't have my driver's license and I can't walk dogs because I am allergic to them. I am applying to other jobs and nobody is really hiring out here and I have bills and credit cards to pay back. I also don't have a college degree at all but I am working on it. What types of companies are hiring really quick and need people a lot? Can someone please help!?
I'm having trouble finding work in the NYC area. What are some jobs that are pretty easy to land regardless of background? Preferably above minimum wage. I don't have a criminal history (hooray) ...or a car (not hooray). Any suggestions and/or thoughts are appreciated.
A little background:
I'd been working as a software engineer (from home) for the last few years and came to the conclusion that the field wasn't for me. I was pretty burnt out and had money in savings so I quit. A little bit of time has passed and the dust has settled a bit. Looking for a job to keep some money coming in, get out of the apartment, be useful, and keep busy while I figure out my next move. I have little bit of service industry experience so I've applied to a ton of service industry jobs but haven't had much luck yet. I get the sense people are put off given I'm coming off a job with great pay in a completely different field.
Thanks.
P.S. I was considering food delivery with an e-bike but there's not really a good place to keep a bike at my place.
P.P.S. If you have tips on how to get your foot in the door as server or barback I'm very curious.
So I’m at my wits end trying to apply for government jobs. It’s been a nightmare honestly. I tried applying for over 30+ jobs through NY HELPs and for whatever reason, they never got back to my applications and it’s been several months now.
I tried attending a few job fairs but that hasn’t been successful either as it felt more of an informative job fair vs. them hiring on the spot or offering interviews.
I keep checking monthly for civil service exams but I heard they take 2 years just to get back to you regarding the exam result which is insane. I can’t wait 2 years to get in.
Is there any other way where I can get a government job in NYC without having to wait the 2 years? Because that’s ridiculous honestly. And guaranteed to get in if I apply, as it’s getting tiring applying for these roles that want cover letters and fancy emails and they don’t even get back to you in the end.
If anyone here would be willing to offer a referral or just a shortcut to get into their agency… I would really appreciate it as it’s been a dead end so far. Not sure who else to reach out to help me get into one of these government agencies.
I know a guy who works for the county and he got in because his parents knew people. So there’s a way to get in. I’ve tried asking other government folks but they don’t seem to want to help… I’m guessing because of their involvement with the union of some sort. Not sure.
TLDR: Trying to get a government job but it’s been an epic fail thus far. I’m looking for simple jobs too like office assistant/public health admin as I have pretty bad ADHD. If anyone knows someone or has connections who can get me an interview at least or can get me into one of these agencies.. would highly appreciate it as I’ve been trying for months and I’m truly at my wits end :(
