Ghosting. I am really becoming disheartened. The amount of time I spend doing an inane cover letter etc. Not a word back. What has happened in the recruitment space. It never used to be like this.

I have been made redundant at 65 years of age and was not wanting to retire yet. The organisation is cutting positions. I get the sinking feeling I might be forced to retire. Do Employers have any interest in employing 65year olds?

Over qualified... is that an issue for anyone? Im finding myself getting no response from agencies and companies. Im full time in the Public Sector but looking for something small and casual right now leading into christmas just for extra cash and pocket money for the festive season. Im even looking at like PM Warehouse work or even casual night fill at a woolworths or something until I get my security licence and do that casually.

I’ve applied for over 40 jobs, a few have already gotten back to me saying unsuccessful, mainly cause i have no experience. But how am I supposed to have experience if no one’s willing to teach me? I’ve been at the same job, same place for 4 years straight and I want to explore the workforce now.

are jobs heavily dependent on qualifications and experiences nowadays? I've extensive experiences in many different fields, IT, labours with tools, welding, even manage teams and business admin for small business but currently i'm looking to start change my career to learn more about office work in corporation or even just mid-size company but are not even get considered for reception or admin assistant roles. am i apply the wrong way or is it just that competitive?

Just schedule an email for 1–3 days after the interview, thanking the hiring manager and offering to send any info they might need. 👌 Our follow-up email templates are here: https://www.seek.com.au/career-advice/article/how-to-follow-up-a-job-application What are your thoughts on follow-up emails: yeah or nah?

Fully remote Aussie jobs Hi everyone, I’m an Australian Permanent Resident and Indian citizen, currently based in India to support my ageing parents. I had to step away from my role in Melbourne to make this move. I’m now looking for fully remote roles that allow me to work from India. I’m open to short-term travel or temporary stints in Australia or elsewhere, if required. Has anyone had success finding such opportunities through Seek or other platforms? Thanks in advance! Pallavi
