.........You are pretty much screwed. I have numerous friends looking for work & it is all the same for all of us ....hundreds of resumes/vita submitted, if lucky 1 or 2 responses that if you are lucky again, result in a screening call that ends with, "well we are still in the process of interviewing candidates, we will let you know if you are selected to move forward."

If in a intersectional marginalized group, odds are even worse, especially in white supremacist, christian nationalist Ohio.

The application tracking software systems are a complete joke.

Delivery, Delivery, Delivery...about the only show in town & be prepared to basically pay them for the privilege of having a job with all the maintenance, gas, insurance plus insurance riders, flat tires, tickets, daycare if needed, service fees etc. etc. etc.)
