PSA: I learned more from a $12 temp job than from 3 years of applying with a polished resume
I quit sending the same resume everywhere and started walking into small shops near my apartment in Cleveland asking who needed help that week. Six weeks of that got me two real job offers, so what is stopping you from skipping the online portal and just showing up?

Wait, you walked into shops and got offers in six weeks? That blows my mind because I always thought small places would just tell you to apply online like everyone else. How did you even start the conversation when you walked in, did you just ask for the manager or what? I feel like most people would get brushed off, so there has to be some trick to it. Also, how many shops did you have to hit before someone actually said yes?
