I have probably sent out a good 100 resumés over the past few months and have only gotten responses within the past few weeks. A good chunk of them did not bother notifying me that I was not being considered and I would only find out if I logged into their shitty portal.
I am no longer applying to jobs that do not lost their salary range. I had an interview the other day that was a complete fucking waste of time because at the end there was my salary was nowhere near what they could afford. They have been looking for months. They definitely need a reality check if they think they can pay next to nothing in the locations they are hiring in which are all high cost of living areas.
This is exactly what I've encountered. I only opened Indeed to see what ppl in my profession are being offered in other places. Places with affordable houses. I'm worried my living situation will become a problem in the area I live, it's only getting higher.
Like you, I find employers are completely unaware of this and aren't offering enough.
They are also asking for more qualifications than they are willing to pay for, so far I'll bide my time.
The other annoyance is I can't ask for any feedback on why my application was passed over.
