Guardian Australia: Looking for unemployed/underemployed jobseekers for perspectives on recruitment experiences and jobs market
Hi Ausjobs
I'm Francisco Dominguez, a freelance journalist working on an article for Guardian Australia about the state of the current jobs market. Would anyone be interested in discussing their experience as a jobseeker?
I'm primarily looking for qualified unemployed/underemployed applicants who feel their applications are being disregarded in an crowded jobs market, which I know many in the sub (and myself!) are experiencing.
If you're interested in chatting, please DM me with:
Your industry, targeted job role, and years of experience in the field
Length of time you've been looking for work
A rough estimate of how many applications you're sending, and if you use AI tools
I'd particularly encourage women and people from underrepresented backgrounds to get in touch.
I'm just looking for potential interviews for now, nothing you send in the DM will be published without your agreement.
I'd ideally look to book a videocall in this week to talk about your experience. If you are interviewed, it's preferable if you're willing to be identified in the article. Thank you and hope to hear from some of you soon.
