I’m in uni, i haven’t had much luck with applications so far. I know that most people actually get places by having stuff to show off e.g projects, clubs and GOOD GRADES. My grades are “mid,” and I’ve had no time for clubs and projects (engineering student, supporting family, poor mental health)
Spam applying for places feels like it will do more harm than good. Am I right to feel that? Or completely wrong? One argument against might be that no human is going to see the application most of the time, so it really is a persistence game
Spam away. I’ve been on hiring committees, and sometimes we have tons of qualified applicants and a hard choice, sometimes we have none. If you spam you’ll have a better chance of hitting a company when there’s fewer people in their list. As long as you’re somewhat qualified, at least; no reason to spam for jobs that are vastly outside of what you can do.
Unless you have time to troll Nestlé or some other dicks. In that case reschedule the interview once or twice and bullshit with confidence
