People complain about the unemployment rate, people complain about not being able to find work, well I have a solution for that. Renovate the Application Process. Right now, employers (particularly big name employers) use online applications. This is fine and dandy, except for the fact unless a candidate meets a certain buzzword, the application gets filtered out, and is never reviewed by an actual human being, therefore wasting the 15-30 minutes of filling out applications, and the questionnaires that follow. Here's how this would work. a. Applicant fills out a brief summary of what it is they are looking for, and are connected with jobs in that area. Experienced or not experienced, doesn't matter. Everyone has to start somewhere. b. Applicant selects from jobs matching that summary, going next to a virtual interview. Answers are reviewed by actual people, not a machine. c. Within 24 hours, the applicant is assigned to a job they had applied for. In addition, for any jobs that applicant was declined, employers would be required by law, to disclose specific that candidate with a particular position. It's so easy, I don't know why a system like it is not in place.
The reason big employers use online application forms is because they have so many applicants to choose from. It helps quickly weed out the less desirable applicants. If the demand versus supply of labor were more in favor of the worker, employers would not be using the online application process. It wastes the time of all the people applying for the small number of job openings. Right now the balance in the labor market is clearly tipped in favor of the side of the employer. The U.S. has added a huge number of people to its population.
We can guess that most employers have all the employees they currently need, therefore, no matter what type of job application system they use, they have all the employees that they need. So...if employers have all the employees they need, then what will the process in the OP do? It certainly won't decrease unemployment! The only way you can increase employment is to greatly increase the demand on goods and services. Or the government can continue it's deficit spending of $500+ billion per year which is probably creating about 5 million US jobs...
My solution is apply to jobs that don't require a online application. - - - Updated - - - Online applications take too much time and that's why I avoided them when I was unemployed.
Granny says, "Dat's right - the Donald got the economy rollin'... Manufacturing Employment Up 189,000 Since Trump’s Election; Federal Government Employment Down 3,000 December 8, 2017 | Employment in manufacturing in the United States has increased by 189,000 in the year since Donald Trump was elected president, according to data released today by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. See also: Unemployment Rate Remains at 17-Year Low December 8, 2017 | The economy added 228,000 jobs in November and the employment rate stayed at 4.1 percent -- a 17-year low. The number of employed people increased 57,000 from October, reaching 153,918,000, which is below the record 154,345,000 set in September. (The number of employed people has set six records since Trump took office.)
Perhaps ensure less jobs where online applications don't make sense? There's a reason why the likes of the US has an abundance of low wage labour (and its not the fault of the workers)...
