Cuban in Miami shares her difficult job search on TikTok.


A Cuban woman from Miami has shared on TikTok her experience searching for a job in the United States, confessing the challenges she is facing.

In her video, the user @teresitaoterohern confesses that she thought she would find a job quickly after arriving in the United States, but soon she faced a different reality.

One of the main obstacles has been the language barrier, as the linguistic barrier makes communication and understanding difficult. The lack of references is another problem mentioned, as without people who can recommend you, the job search becomes more complicated.

Additionally, upon arriving at places, they often send her to apply online, which means spending hours sending applications to all possible jobs. "It's a process not as easy as I thought, but it's not impossible. It can be done; it just takes time," she says in her video.

The young Cuban also recounts that, after days and nights applying for various positions, what she receives are rejection emails and messages indicating that they are looking for people with specific characteristics or a perfect command of English.

"A thousand obstacles stand in the way, making your progress more difficult and the process even more frustrating. But I don't lose faith. I came to this country to move forward and succeed, and I know that at some point I am going to achieve it. Much strength to those going through the same," he added.
