Brilio.net - Finding work in Indonesia is a challenge for today's young people. The high unemployment rate, especially among new graduates, reflects the tight competition in the job market. On the other hand, there are not many job vacancies published, and they don't always match your abilities.
Not a few young people are looking for jobs, as long as employers can accept them. As long as you can work and get paid , any work is no longer a problem. Currently, quite a few job seekers think like that. Regardless of their profession, as long as the work they do is halal, it doesn't matter to them.
Therefore, every time a vacancy opens up, job seekers will flock to apply. As happened recently at a cosmetics factory. The moment job seekers flocked to put in application envelopes was uploaded by the TikTok account @tamaraa2202.

" I want to look for a trusted broker, are you coming or not? " wrote @tamaraa2202.
The caption in the video is ironic because quite a few job seekers rely on brokers. Apart from that, quite a few people get jobs through "insider" routes.
The video shows a sea of job seekers crowded together. They were seen holding up envelopes containing documents to apply for work at the factory. Based on the video owner's account, the factory only accepts 100 employees.

" He said the city only had 100, many went home ," said @tamaraa2202.
Netizens claim to sympathize with job seekers who are rushing to apply for work. There are also those who question the type of interview that causes people to be crowded like that.
" It's a bit surprising that in 2024 there will still be lockers with interviews like this, " said @hallogwp13.
" This is the real situation of job seekers in this country, " said @msprxx.
" You can send it via email, why do you have to come to that place? " said @ryan_zhuang_.
" As tired as I am, working is better than looking for a job in your own country. It's really difficult to have to go through insiders and money. Admin Greetings Kartap PT Sai. Keep the spirit of a brown envelope fighter, " wrote @prakasa1927.
" The locker information has been bothering me for the past 2 weeks, " said @saragisajo.
