Hi Tom,

I was just taking a look at your resume, and your experience at Deceased really caught my eye! I'm especially interested in your knowledge of being missed by friends and family. Did you know that complications from heart surgery is in high demand right now?

I'm a head hunter looking for dynamic individuals who are interested in positions at an exciting new startup, and I think you'd be a perfect fit!

I hope we get a chance to chat soon!

Turns out to be an insurance phone salesperson job 9/10.

A head hunter is how he got this job in the first place!

[–] [email protected] 56 points 6 months ago (3 children)

Dang. Even he got a new job. My "not selected for the position" emails are at 376 currently.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

The new normal. You're lucky if an actual person reads your application nowadays.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago (2 children)

I'm so exhausted. Just shoveling resumes into the void.

Think of resumes like SEO. You just gotta have the right key words- best way is to pull the text from the job desc of what you’re applying to

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

I liked feeding the details to https://www.jobscan.co/ when I was displaced ~`2016.

The unfortunate truth is that you need an inside contact for many of the roles.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I'm starting a job search today and dreading it. There are only like 5 positions open right now that fit with my skills and also pay even close to a livable amount of money, so that's not great. Deceased sounds like a great opportunity at this point - no commute and you don't need a living wage if you're not living.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

Nah, dude. Just wait until the deceased field gets oversaturated. All the hordes of people wandering pointlessly, everybody trampling over everyone else trying to eat the organs of the living...it's a dead end job that'll get worse with time.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You get those emails? Nice.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

(Gets a job by knowing someone) I can explain!

You didn't have to interview? I had to go to through three interviews!

I'd love to get an interview. All I get are rejection emails.

You guys are getting responses?

[–] [email protected] 53 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Oh wow this is real.

Nice, someone congratulated him in the comments. 😂

This man has won capitalism

[–] [email protected] 31 points 6 months ago

I'm gonna lie and put deceased on my resume too. They never check.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 6 months ago

Great profession, perfect 0/0 work/life balance.

Literally the opposite. Unless he goes with cremation rather than burial, of course.

If you have a trebuchet or cannon or something to launch the urn or casket with, sure 🤷

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I mean, a rocket will get you past the sky, so...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Depends whether or not you define outer space as part of "the sky". As a Browncoat, I say it is, adding that you can't take it from me 😉

It's always hard to see others living your dreams.

Guaranteed this guy talked about how no one wants to work anymore, or provided 'insights' on leadership/project management

[–] [email protected] 34 points 6 months ago (1 children)

IDK why I’m sticking up for a dead stranger this early but… is this kinda unfair cuz it’s just ageism? Dude might’ve been a saint or Hitler. (No, nothing in between!)

If you’re good at reading faces I have to take back the ageism accusation :)
