Today, every "entry level" job in my field is now requiring 2-5 years experience. I don't think they understand what "entry level" actually means. FML

Thanks for the support and encouragement everyone, it's nice to know that I wasn't totally degraded for something that's been extremely frustrating. I'm very lucky the currently have a full time job (A supervisory position, at 24, as a woman!). And for those wondering, my field is business administration. i have a Bachelor's degree and plenty of legitimate work experience, just not experience that is directly related to what they want. so *whoosh* in the trash goes my resume!

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Jobs these days expect more than they say they do so... Like the saying goes "no job no experience, no experience no job". Good luck op

You must be trying to work in the computer field. Pain in the ass isn't it?

Many places list "requirements" that aren't actually requirements. Apply anyway. A good interview can get you past what is "required" on paper.

Entry level means: maximum experience but expect the pay of an intern.
