I have been recruiting for my team for two months now and the pool of active candidates out there is thinner than I have ever see in it in the last 30 years. These positions are typically highly desirable... white collar tech job at a A-list tech company doing cool cutting edge stuff with great pay and benefits... normally when I post a job like this I get flooded with resumes and i cherry pick the best candidates. This time I got a few resumes on the first few days and then... nothing. Literally no one is applying. What's going on? is everyone really content to cash stimulus and unemployment checks even though the salary range in question is way over those amounts? Is it really true that no one wants to work anymore? I had been recruiting in just Canada but now I have opened it up to a global search and I am still seeing shit for applications.

If this is what the labor market is like everywhere then the global economy is FUCKED.

A few of the good people had found different arrangements, eg: from freelance to state employed

Less pay but way less stress

The young have a very low percentage of "good", meaning precise, on time, able to understand questions, reliable

It is out collective fault (christian religion) of protecting the idiots

It is duty of God to judge and pardon, we, as society must strive for being fair and promote smart people that can predict the future.

on top of the above, we have jew running all social media and news, actively screwing the young minds with "entitlements"....

What can you do ? be real, if your company cannot fly because of the "weather", ground the fleet and become a pizza shop...
