  • Getting a job is a really important part of your life, so, I thought it'd be a good idea to show what that process looks like for a lot of new workers.

  • This place looks pretty good; I... I guess I'll go check it out.

  • Hello.

  • Uh, I would like a job, please.

  • Uh, yeah, you actually need five years' experience for this position.

  • But, it's... it says entry-level position on... on the advertisement.

  • That's really only there so we don't have to pay you as much.

  • Oh, okay, that... that makes sense.

  • I mean, I probably couldn't work here forever, but, I guess I'll give it a go.

  • Hello.

  • Uh, I would like a job, please.

  • Uh, I... you're... you're actually overqualified for this position, sir.

  • But, it... it says entry-level position on... on the advertisement.

  • Yeah, but we're really looking for someone more... enthusiastic.

  • Oh, okay, that, that makes sense.

  • Alright, I guess I'll try somewhere right in the middle.

  • Hello.

  • Uh, I would like a job, please.

  • Uh, yeah, I... I'm afraid we've had over 100 applications from people far more qualified than you.

  • How... how can they be more qualified? It says entry-level position on the advertisement.

  • They have other more redeeming qualities.

  • Oh, okay, that... that makes sense.

  • Well, I... guess I better get myself more qualified.

  • Hello, uh, I would like a degree, please.

  • Uh, alright, for sure.

  • Uh, I'll sign you up for the next four or five years, and, just so you know, each year is gonna be around $10,000 plus your textbooks.

  • Wait. How am I supposed to pay for that?

  • Uh, I don't know; get a job?

Getting a job is a really important part of your life, so, I thought it'd be a good idea to show what that process looks like for a lot of new workers.
