Could have fooled me. I have been applying to jobs left and right and I am barely getting any callbacks for interviews. My resume is polished and has been checked by many professionals, and I have good experience relevant to jobs I apply for and still nothing. Apparently being college educated, pursuing graduate degrees, winning a lot of awards at previous jobs, and having good references mean nothing. I am even told that I interview really well by those who have interviewed me.
I am looking for HR specifically. I am almost convinced that I am being discriminated against on the basis that I am a young male looking to get into HR. Every where I have worked and many places I have been to interviews in the past have all females working the HR jobs. ALL FEMALES, not even one male. I am starting to feel like a male nurse at this point. Thats just me, but I can't help but get the feeling that these middle-aged HR ladies would rather hire a female that can BS with instead of a young male they have nothing in common with. But I can't prove anything except the fact of what I have seen.
