Among many other things, the reddit community has proven itself to be a handy place to ask for job application advice , as well as one for providing tips and tricks of landing one.Nearly a month ago, curious redditor / u/TheYarizard pondered to /r/AskReddit “Reddit, Can we have a reddit job fair?” What happened afterwards was a feat of pure brilliance, and we’re celebrating the replies and support that came from the responses. The post attracted some incredibly interesting people with fascinating professions. It was graced by the likes of speech-language pathologist , a medical librarian , a Chief Metallurgist and Heat Treat Manager , and lots of others. Thank you to all those who illustrated your diverse array of interesting workplaces.Furthermore, we’d like to enthusiastically highlight the subreddit that this post birthed — /r/JobFair , where “you can post your job in an AMA style-format and answer questions regarding your job.”We’ve already had some super interesting job AMAs from beekeepers locksmiths (could have used your help with that safe , man), butchers and body piercers . The community already has nearly 8k subscribers (and could easily surpass that mark once this blog post goes live), and it’s is only 29 days old!
