I've put in so many for jobs I'm qualified for and have never heard back. It's fukked up, man. I need a job. 
Do online job apps even get screened?

They have a program that screens for buzzwords. HR don't even read them anymore. It's mostly a formality to even post an ad.I've put in so many for jobs I'm qualified for and have never heard back. It's fukked up, man. I need a job.

The last interview I went to homey told me he can only even see about 10% of the applications that are filled because the program screens them out... and this was a fukking line cook job, not some super sophisticated job or some shyt. It made me feel like filling out apps is a complete waste of fukking time.

applied for a job doing laundry at a uniform company...They had the position posted on the door, I walk in and return the app like I know I got this... Call to check on the app shorty tells me you should hear something in a couple weeks, after two weeks I call again ...she says I just sent a email to HR about you...you should hear something in a few days, that was two months ago..dont feel bad brehs I could understand if I walk in like

Man, seems like the only way to get a job is someone who works for a company already.

Pretty much.
And as a person who isn't particularly social in the first place, plus not living in the city I grew up in, I have a hard time even getting $10/hour jobs.

90-95 percent of them end up in the (online) trash bin 
Most people get jobs thru networking (ie, family/friends connections)

I moved down to NC with no job
Been applying, networking like crazy, etc etc
One day I see a job that pretty much fits exactly what I want to do. I apply for it. That was like 3 months ago. Been working here for a month and a half
Dont give up. I was ready to go back to school before I got this shyt.

Keep hope alive my peoples. I got my current position after the head of a company found my résumé online. I'd uploaded it to a job site years ago and never even applied with the company that hired me.
Just get your resume out there.

Yes.I've put in so many for jobs I'm qualified for and have never heard back. It's fukked up, man. I need a job.
I'm not in HR, but I've been involved in assisting the manager with interviewing applicants. They either applied online or got their application to HR via a head hunter (contract agency).
Try Manpower or similar head hunter companies. Sometimes, they'll get job listings sooner than the general public.
Damn that's a fukking great Idea LOL
