@radzoogle @PolitlcsUK @thetimes In all fairness if there's that many applicants, employers don't have the time to reply to each one. They usually only respond to successful candidates.

@PolitlcsUK @thetimes employers should be legally required to respond to applicants instead of ghosting them so the 16-24 age range isnt waiting for months on hundreds of applications they will never hear back from.

🚨 NEW: A Government review has found employers must adapt to the "bedroom generation" of unemployed 16-24 year olds by offering more flexibility It says they're "not snowflakes or faking it" and their anxiety and depression is linked to growing up on social media [@thetimes]

@kingy1906 @PolitlcsUK @thetimes And the ones there are are unrealistic, taken by AI or immigrants (some perfectly valid) or you need to drive to get to.

@PolitlcsUK @thetimes Social media is bad, and has done irreparable damage to the next generation that’s not debatable. But that still does not change the fact that there just simply aren’t enough jobs

@pinkmaskxx @mudstuck123 @hoezeth It could be but cover letter is probably quicker and easier

@JakeWStephens91 @mudstuck123 @hoezeth Is that not something that can be discussed in a call with a hiring manager? A good resume summarizes those things as bullet points in the resume and would be discussed during a phone screen no? I feel like that type of letter would just be copy and pasted between applications.

Actually mad how everyone is just ignoring the fact that there are no jobs

@mudstuck123 @pinkmaskxx @hoezeth A CV is basically bullet pointing your work history, personal skills, qualifications etc. Cover letter explains how and why you can demonstrate those skills in the relevant job.

@JakeWStephens91 @pinkmaskxx @hoezeth Well said

@hoezeth There are jobs but it is a small and difficult market right now. So many factors working against potential employees. AI, 7yrs experience for an entry level role, jobs being filled internally, cars too expensive and poor transport links. Get an apprenticeship to start.

@pinkmaskxx @mudstuck123 @hoezeth Proving that you have the skills and experience outlined in your CV with practical examples and how you have used them.

@mudstuck123 @hoezeth But that doesn’t answer what exactly should be on a “cover letter” skills and experience are in the resume. Is the cover letter just an essay making the connections on how my skills and experience can assist the company? Then it could be just the sentence “I will raise profits”.

Are either filled internally or never exist in the first place. It's a tough world out there.

I'm lucky to have a job I love but: - There aren't enough jobs - The transport system is f*****d and no one can afford a car/insurance - Many job requirements are unrealistic because they want five years of experience for entry level positiona - Many jobs that are advertised..

Middlesbrough cementing themselves as a future pub quiz question here. Only club to lose a play off semi final and a play off final in the same season.

At Heathrow airport check-in I was asked, "Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?" I answered, "If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?"🤔

@MUFC_RA I didn't see that one coming...

@JakeWStephens91 You didn’t get that did you 😂

Two absolutely shit teams in this play off. 6 points for Utd next season

@MUFC_RA FFS look in 🤣

@MUFC_RA Rightly so imo but they probably did deserve to go up.

@JakeWStephens91 They didn’t get a look in unfortunately

@dkaustin87 Seen this but it's a league position on EFL the board, just happens to be a Boro' rep. Completely independent from his Middlesbrough role.

Instead of people sticking the knife in on little old Southampton, perhaps more questions should be asked about dodgy Steve Gibson determined to throw Southampton out because his team couldn’t win on the pitch. 2 people on the independent panel with links to Boro?! Wow #saintsfc

Technically it's 12.

@JamesMelville Crack open a beer, put your sunnies on, grab a book and enjoy the summer

We’ve had 9 months of cold, dreary weather and the first week of reasonably warm weather and it’s back to the usual narrative of “intense heatwave”. Just get outside and enjoy the rare warm sunshine and decent levels of vitamin D before we are back to rain in a week’s time.

@GBNEWS Grab a pint, put your sunnies on, get a book out and enjoy the summer.

'It is daunting to get an intense heatwave so early... This is indicative of what we say about global warming.' Weather expert Phil Morrish reacts as Britain braces for record heat over the bank holiday weekend.

@GBNEWS One day of reasonably warm weather and its all 'climate climate climate'... what about the drizzle and damp we've had for the last five months?
