Have u experienced this while looking for work?

[Eiffel-sixtyFight]

Personally I find my prestigious upbringing and education goes against me.

As employers are intimidated by my intellect and intelligence.

Nah I got kicked out of business studies GSCE class in school and told I would never amount to anything... Blagged A levels and a Degree, and yeah they were pretty much right.

The video implies two equal CV's may be equal yet a person will be judged for other reasons i.e class/accent.

This would be considered well spoken over here..

Lol admitting to yourself that you're a retard makes life so much fun. Can confirm.

No.
I walked into my company 15 years ago and it went like this.
Boss: you afraid of heights?
Me: umm.....no
Boss: we're gonna find out be at 350 Orleans at 630
Me: ok

I've never looked for work. Work has always found me. I was hired from one job to the next job.

Entry level jobs (especially city jobs) it 100% works against you.

They want someone that's fine staying at a 32-40k a year job for life. If your upbringing and resume are too polished then they won't hire you, they'll be like "this person is just trying to work 6 to 12 months to pad there resume before they split, there not in for the long haul"

 

[It-is-what-it-is]

You lost me at looking for work.

I mean if you looked like the woman in your AV they'd just be worried about getting #metoo'd after they try to have a squeeze.

The secret to a great career is to sell something(anything), but not your time.
Read that again.
Don’t let that go over your head.

I watched the video for 40 seconds before I got bored and shut it off. If you want to get a job, get a skill or training not a lot of other people have. Your college prestige and willingness to work hard don't mean jack shit.

The entire reason I got my first job was cause I helped a bunch of computer techs change a campus network from novell to windows and nobody else in my price range knew anything about that at the time.

 

[HARRISON_3]

That's hot.

BBC obsessed with leftist identity politics, privilege theory and SJW ideology.

This is why I don't pay for a TV licence.

Awomen.

I applied for an entry level job. The recruiter denied me because I was over educated and was paid too well at my previous job.

Retention was a problem, and people with options were a risk.

They probably know you're a sherdogger.

This. I manage a very small office in an industry that has a decently long training period. Whenever I hire someone, it's a really big decision. My biggest factor is if I think they'll stay for several years. It's a balance of finding someone qualified enough, but also making sure they aren't overqualified or overambitious to where they'll jump at any other opportunity. We typically do 3 interviews, and by the 3rd I've built up enough rapport in being able to figure out how stable they are and if they plan to move. So far it has worked - no one that I've hired has left. It just takes forever to get someone hired though.
