If you asked most of your colleagues in the workplace on how they got their first job, you will probably get an answer such as someone pushed it for me. If you respond to a job advert, you are expected to have someone ‘pushing’ it for you.
In the past, there was no ‘pushing’. You applied for a job, got interviewed and if successful, got hired. Why the ‘pushing’? Who does the ‘pushing’ and why? The truth is that courtesy of population increase and our economy not growing fast enough, jobs have become scarce.
