me: gonna post daily and be a marketing genius also me: disappears for 3 weeks because boss man made me edit recruiting videos anyway HAPPY MONDAY we’re back, we’re caffeinated, and we’re slightly employed ✨ #InternLife #PleaseDontFireMe #RecruiterProblems

Going back to part time for the school year soon. Before I do, let's do the funniest thing and get a job order in. The old pros will do the work, you just sign with me so I can have bragging rights for the fall semester. Make an intern's dream a reality? Serious inquiries only (mostly).

if you're wondering how my Monday is going... so I accidentally sent my own resume in for a VP role at one of our clients. totally just accidentally attached my own instead of the candidate's resume. I may have to go into hiding

oh good. it's friday. my week was 2 days but it feels like a month. the only good news is that riley got voted out of #bb27 last night. i would not hire that dude for anything. that's professional recruiter talk. he's a toxic culture walking. Metcalf Search: Doesn't hire dude-bros.

i'm back from my beach trip. did ya miss me? no? yeah i didn't think so. i literally had a whole 2 weeks of content scheduled and NOBODY (BOSS MAN) posted a single thing. I AM LITERALLY PANICKING. MY ENGAGEMENT IS GONE. MY REACH IS GONE. i’m so cooked and am never going to win socials.

"An active candidate isn't always a red flag. Sometimes it's one of your competitors begging you to poach a performer." -Jay Metcalf 🔥🔥🔥

so the boss man found out our email templates are a chaotic mess of 5 fonts and 3 sizes. my entire day is now just fixing this. this is my life now. just me, 20+ email campaigns, and the soothing sounds of Rachel on the #bb27 live feeds #WorkFromHome #MarketingAutomation #ThisIsFine

My new special skill is spotting walking red flags at scale. Let's see an AI do that. Intern: 1, Recruit-O-Matic: 0.

just found out what master plumbers in georgia make. anyone know if you can get a refund on a college degree? anyway. send help. by help I mean plumbers. #SkilledTrades #GeorgiaJobs #Plumber

Just got a resume that is centered, every line from the top to the bottom AI can't feel the specific kind of psychic pain this is causing me. checkmate you unfeeling automatons #HumanVsAI #Recruiting #ResumeTips #HelpMe

lisa the ai bot is coming for my job / i am costs / i already spent the bonus on my cat / new plan is #bb27 influencer / MUST GO VIRAL NOW / save me @taranarmstrong.bsky.social #AI #JobSecurity #Help

where does the phrase "rage against the machine" come from? was it originally about printers?? anyhow im raging against the broken apt lobby coffee machine. #OfficeSpace #RageAgainstTheMachine #FirstWorldProblems

fam.. why do people keep arguing about stuff in glasses... everyone knows they're refillable right?? #DeepThoughts #Philosophy #WednesdayWisdom

We did a team “peak productivity processes” first thing this morning. It said no social media until you’ve gotten your day under control. My job is **checks to-do list** half social media management. So I should just watch the #bb27 feeds and have my coffee?

My first candidate started their new job today. Boss Man sent me a bonus this morning. I will never know failure again. TACOS FOR LUNCH I'M BUYING #RecruitingGod #MondayMotivation #Placement

It's 3pm in Portland which means it's 6pm on the East Coast. Boss Man is gone. I've been watching the #BB27 live feeds for two hours now at least. Don't tell anyone. Anyway… so Lauren JUST NOW figured out she can’t make everyone happy putting 3 people on the block? 🤣🤡 #worklifebalance

Yeah idk either #bb27 #bigbrother #FinallyGotCanvaPro

yesterday, we said no one searches for "other duties as assigned". so today, i did the research. there are over 5,000 of them in Portland. i have seen too much. i'm tired now. #JobPostTherapy #InternResearch

😳👀 desperate, sure, but not like that tho

pretty sure my email is in retrograde i opened my inbox at 55 now it’s 87 am i a scorpio now or what #monday #internlife

is 2 really better than 0 tho

posting this from a friday zoom call that 100% could have been an email. #friday

👀😎👔 #NationalEmojiDay

It’s Wednesday. Did I plan content this week? No. Did I tell the boss man that? 👀

So the boss man said 'get on the socials.. grow our following' and here I am. Does anyone on Bluesky want to follow a recruiting company though? Should I just talk about #bb27 since that seems to be trending?
