Asero said in a viral video that she lost her first job after graduation, "I was fired from my post-graduation job - the job that took me five months to find and for which I moved to New York City,"

Previously, the 21-year-old worker found a job at a startup company after a long time of sending hundreds of job applications.

Asero emphasized that during her work, she always finished her job and is often praised by her boss as "one of the smartest people he works with."

Currently, Asero is facing a difficult financial situation and does not have any fund money.

Meanwhile, the next recruitment process will begin on January 2, taking at least 3 weeks to have a chance to find a new job.

"I can't wait that long. I need a job immediately," Brielle said. 

"The job I work from 9 am to 5 pm is not enough to live on. I have no savings because of that job," she continued.

“I did everything I could but it wasn't enough,” she said in frustration.

The girl expresses her disappointment and scaring with the hiring process, stating that it makes her feel unaccepted. She acknowledges her hard work and portfolio, stating that she is a hard worker in college.

Her latest video quickly attracted a large number of viewers with many divided opinions.

Some people gave pieces of advice she should continue finding a suitable job, while some admitted that this is a lesson for her, not to express everything on social networks, leading to unfortunate consequences.

It's not a big deal if you're unemployed at a young age, just keep looking! The second replied.

If you have potential projects, apply to big companies, don't be afraid of challenges, another wrote.

You should learn a lesson for yourself, Don't complain about the company on social networks! Someone commented.
