15 Job Search Finds From These Trying Times

Looking for a job right now is not easy in these trying times. Especially with all the recent graduates, fresh out of school looking to start their careers, it isn't all fun and games. There are a lot of things that go into looking for a job, the qualifications are the first, then you need a good resume and references, and you have to be better than so many other people. As if all that wasn't enough, it seems as if employers are making it increasingly harder and harder for people to apply.

But if it makes it any better for someone, users on Reddit share their terrible job search experiences for everyone else to see and shake their heads at. Find some companionship in the people who are also struggling. Here are 15 moments from the job search process that are just painful.
