Massive Subway queue exposes urgent Australian job trend as numbers hit record levels: 'So difficult' A jobseeker was shocked at how many people were applying for an entry-level Subway role and it's sparked a big warning. An international student was shocked to see so many people applying for a Subway job in Melbourne. Australians are being warned about the current job market, with applications for each role hitting record levels. This was laid bare in a recent video where dozens of people were seen lining up for a job interview at a Subway restaurant in Melbourne. Career coach Leah Lambart told Yahoo Finance this wasn't an issue confined to retail, hospitality, and admin jobs, and she's seeing it in white-collar sectors as well. She warned that it's incredibly competitive across the board at the moment. "I think the cost of living is definitely contributing to that, where people are perhaps looking for second jobs and trying to earn more money," she said.
