It is the greatest competition
You'll ever have to face.
A bloodless battle, a Real-world Struggle.
And everyone should be prepared for the trouble.

After investing so much in education,
It's time you come out and start a vocation.
If you aim high, you better work hard.
So say Adieu to play and vacation.

Start writing resumes and Cover Letters,
The two fundamentals for all job-seekers.
Flesh out your talents,
qualifications and acheivements.
Like a peacock showing its colorful feathers.
Sealed with your hopes and dreams,
You send them to multiple recipients.

But Jobs are high in demand
And Low in Supply.
You asked for a chance,
Yet they don't even take a glance
They are like the bachelor who's looking for the bride.
To them, you just look like any other girl.

Feeling frustated?
You are not the only one.
Millions of people have the same problem.
Don't feel relieved though.
As these are the people you are competing against
In a contest you don't know when it ends.
