In reply to the discussion: Someone is lying..worker applied to 60 entry-level jobs in September got one interview [View all]ProfessorGAC
(64,859 posts)37. Also, We Should Remember...
...that some public facing industries had a much higher than normal retirement rate, when furlough, or having to work in the pre-vaccine pandemic were the options to retirement.
I know 6 teachers & school administrators that retired 1-3 years early. That's just me, personally, and it's like that all around Illinois.
So, there are schools that can't fill teacher jobs, or they got regular subs (fully certified) to take the gigs, and now they can't find subs. (I sub since I retired. Science & math, grades 6-12. I get so many calls it would he impossible to do them all. I got 4 for today! And, I subbed Monday & Tuesday, so I wanted nothing today.)

Incompetent hiring managers abound, especially in restaurants & low end retail jobs.
