why does whites have higher opportunity to get job?
Asked by kumo_otoko
how come every person that works at some places r white? my town has alot of hispanic and indian populations but every single person that i see in stores r whites. and im trying to get a parttime job for more than 2 years, they dont even want to interview me or call me. is it because im asian? i really need to get out of this stupid country, but i cant even get job to save money for that. do they plan to keep the foreigners in u.s. so there will be more smart people in u.s.?

Best Answer:
you need to brush up on your english skills if youre gonna compete with white people. p.s. if you speak correctly, dress appropriately, and have a brain there shouldnt be any reason why you shouldnt get the job over a white person.

Your "question" (if that's the right term) makes absolutely no sense.

It has nothing to do with skin color and everything to do with how one carries oneself. I would not hire you for the simple fact that you can not type proper English. How than, am I supposed to figure you can speak the language.

just like when whites blame minorities for all the problems in this country, you can't blame them for all of your problems. perhaps you have to get more education? relocate? get a better resume?

I don't see lots of whites taking jobs in Asia, so why the bitching here... if anything the americans give you lots of opportunities...

If your question is any example of your spelling and grammar skills, I think you've just provided a very good reason why you haven't been able to find a job. Here's a hint: It has nothing to do with your race.

wow. that is not true if you haven't noticed it is impossible for everyone to get a job here. watch the news buddy. and if anything asians in are country are viewed as intelligent. so you acting the way you are is only hurting your ethnicity. maybe if you actually used your mind and didn't INSULT THE COUNTRY YOU STAYING IN you would get a job try that for starters.

If you want to leave the U.S. .......... why not make it known to your neighbors ? I`m sure they`d be more than willing to take up a collection to send you AND your family on your way back to wherever you came from , Chong ! Even if only to increase property values in the neighborhood ............ BTW ............. don`t let the door hit you in the aasss on the way out ...............

Well, I don't think it has to do with being Asian. I am Asian, and I am currently working at a department store. I wasn't able to find a job for a long time in my field, so I had to take anything I could. My family thinks it's a poor use of my college education, however. I think a big part of not being able to find a job is the poor economy. Also I think if you have a chip on your shoulder about not having a job, employers can sense that and will not want to hire you. There are some things you can do to try to get hired. When you go in, look the part of a sales associate, etc. Look presentable and approachable. Let them know that you are eager to work by filling out the application on the spot. I did that, and I was granted interviews right away! Good luck!

yeah thats why you don't have a job, its because you aren't white. If you could put together even one thought maybe you could get a crappy retail job that you desire. This is about the dumbest thing I've seen on yahoo answers.
