Why difficulty obtaining employment



MEBO Research's Community Outreach Director, Cheryl Fields, recommends sufferers to read this article in Workopolis entitled, "Why nobody wants to hire you", by Elizabeth Bromstein.




Can't get a job, even though you look in the mirror and what you see looking back is pure awesome?

Here are 15 reasons why people don't want to hire you.
  1. You're not a magical renaissance machine willing to work for less than what you're worth.
  2. You don't already have a job
  3. You're not getting past the bots
  4. You aren't qualified
  5. You have a stupid email address
  6. You're late
  7. You lied
  8. You're not passionate
  9. You look like a jerk online
  10. You're lazy about your LinkedIn
  11. You lack confidence
  12. You're just a bad interview
  13. You don't follow up
  14. You're inarticulate
  15. You're just not likable

Each one of these reasons has a discussion paragraph that is very interesting, that Cheryl and I recommend as a 'must read' to anyone seeking employment. Thanks Cheryl for the heads up.
