  • the online part is pretty terrible advice. the online platforms are filled to the brim with fake job listings and the real job postings have many applicants (because it’s too easy to send a resume). going in person will definitely get you more responses and that’s from recent experience. at least in Montreal when I was still a student I must have given a total of 5 printed resumes at random places (McDonalds Canada computers restaurants etc) and I got answers for all 5 of them (and the latest one was in 2023)

    I remember having friends who kept complaining that they couldn’t find jobs, because they were looking at indeed postings for fast food or grocery store positions while I never applied online for these kinds of jobs and I got a 100% success rate
