Jobseeker rejected after recruiter says role would not be 'fulfilling'. He questions what matters more, basic survival or job fulfilment

A Reddit post by a jobseeker facing unemployment has gone viral after they said a recruiter rejected them from a basic office role, claiming the job would not be fulfilling enough. Living paycheck to paycheck and with their current company shutting down, the user questioned whether employers believe people are better off unemployed than taking available work. The post sparked widespread discussion, with many commenters saying the real issue was fear of the candidate being overqualified and seen as a flight risk.
