Why is it the most entry level positions have years of experience requirement. Is the word "entry level" means something else to these people? Or am I the one who mistaken about the meaning. I check the lowest possible experience is internship which may or may not be paid.
From what I've read, you are expected to have experience of working. not the technical skill required, but being able to acclimatize with the work life and learn your job, more or less. That's what I read from an article.
That sounds like the excuse they'd give if you ask about it. The one they make right before hiring someone that has previous experience in the job they're hiring for.
As a personal experience, Usually during your college years, you dont go idle and work part time, with professors, or small group project with friends you can put that in your resume
Only questionable companies would require more than a year of experiences for an entry level job. Internships are counted as experiences too, though
The hiring people want to pay experienced workers entry level position wages. So yes, you're right. They don't understand the definition of entry level position.
Well sometimes job description have other meanings Entry level - dog shit pay Hard working employee - will work 24/7 Creative - holy shit we suck Creative Problem solver - holy shit we suck and we are going to have you solve it. Organizer - help we cant find shit. Creative organizer and problem solver entry level- our company suck, we need a new leader but we cant afford new ceo pay, so we still under pay you.
Basically this. also remember that family company : unreasonable work time and low pay, with company event you can't skip. flexible working time: say goodbye to undisturbed vacation. Also, about the entry level requirements: don't most university have internship program? It usually range from 1-6 month and is required for graduation. That + part time job is usually enough.
some companies don't consider internship as valid heck just the other day the evaluation question is "how many years of experience in ______ do you have(internship not included) Also reminds me of this. https://cristinatudose.ro/en/hr-en/if-job-ads-were-honest
Well, they usually don't expect any experience whatsoever at McDonalds, you can try getting an entry level position there! ^^)/
People with good resumes get the good positions. So the next best thing recruiters can for the remaining people without the credentials is to weed out the inexperienced from the unambitious but veteran people. That and justifying shit salaries.
