Job Hunting 2

I knew it even before starting this activity, but job hunting is really depressing. It seems just as if you are reduced to some descriptions, not more than else...Well that's what it is so I just continue moving on.

But there is one thing that I found improved over the past three years: Japanese entreprises are adopting work-from-home systems. Working remotely was something inconceivable for most of the companies before the COVID, and aside from big-sized companies most of them were reluctant to challenge. The disease which plunged the world into the chaos last three years, howeve, forced them to try new things to avoid the spread, hence the change (which the Japanese companies hate so much!).

Recently, I read an interesting article about hte job market in the U.S. It talked about the reverse in the trend of salaries between the white and blue collars. As the COVID increases the risk of face-to-face work, the increase rate of remuneration for people who can work remotely slowd down while that of essential workers accelerated.

The above two examples show the good side of the pandemic, but the COVID has certainly changed our lives in bad direction: there are many deaths recorded each day. There is no doubt that this made, and is leaving some marks to our society.

あー、そういうニュアンスでしたら、以下のように書くとよりよく伝えられると思います。

The whole system reduces a person to nothing more than a few brief descriptions, but that's just how it works, so I guess all I can do is continue on with the job hunting process.

「まあ(job huntingって)こういうものだから」は「but that's just how it works」で直訳的に言えますが、「先に進むかしかないよね」のはこの場合で、少し直訳しがたいと思いますので、「so I guess all I can do is continue on with the job hunting process」と書きました。

Sorry one another question: can we say "trend salaries"? In this case trend is an adjective?

Recently, I read an interesting article about the job market in the U.S. It mentioned a reverse in the trend salaries between the white and blue collars.

まずはこの「I'm reduced to mere descriptions」という表現を分かり切ったかどうかを確かめたいです。この表現は履歴書とか面接などで自分の本当の能力を表しがたいという事なのでしょうか。そうでしたら、「I'm reduced to mere descriptions」は大丈夫です。この表現は確かに比喩的ですが、意味が通じると思います。

I don't think so. I did a quick google search, and "trend salaries" was only seen for salaries of employees working at a company called "trend" or some similarly named company. "Trend in salaries" is what you would usually say.

On a side note, I didn't notice this earlier, but we call them "white collar workers" and "blue collar workers." So, here you would say "white and blue collar workers."

Ah, I see why you asked that question now. I had a typo and didn't put in the 'in' before. Sorry about that!

It just occurred to me, but I think the best way to put this would be "salary trends."
