Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I feel you.

I'm 24 y/o now, and have never had a serious job interview in my life. The few jobs that I've had, I got through family connections, but I can't only rely on them (they're seasonal jobs).

So, I'm planning to do something like cashier at a local grocery store now. They hire students with no real background in the field, and that's just what I have. Also, I'm trying to get to do some voluntary work (homeless daycare organization). Let's see how it all turns out.
