I'm really getting frustrated?

You might be unemployed, but at least you're free. HELP!!!!

GIIIRRRLLLL i hear you loud and clear on that one! I have no idea when or if this economy will start to look up (perhaps election 08 might have something to do with it....) but i can totally understand how frustrating your situation is. I went to school forever! or it seemed like forever. anyway, when i got out of grad school i thought i'd find a job in a minute. YEAH RIGHT. and i was applying to everything and anything. the most frustrating part is the whole 'you have to apply online' thing. it's annoying becuase there is no human contact, and i really doubt if anyone actually reads those things!! and there is rarely a contact number. anyway....i am employed right now at a university, but only on contract for one year. i'm not looking forward to getting back into the search atmosphere..... and you're right. older people have no grasp of how difficult it is because they just went to school for something (or not) and when they wanted a job and were willing to work they got one....

grrrr...thanks for the vent.

best of luck to you though, SOMETHING's gotta give at some point!!

Are you just applying for companies that advertise or did you get out the yellow pages, call companies in your area and ask if you can fax over your resume and to who's attention. Follow up in 4 days with the person you faxed it to. The economy is bad and it does take a longer time to find work. Also apply for civil service jobs. They take a while to process through, but you have been looking for a long time, you have nothing to lose.

if you would have mentioned your place i would be much comfortable to answer. anyways lets give it a go.

search for jobs online u will get if not in your country then abroad if u want to find a job in your place ask recruiting agencies the best way and if your profile is that weak that no one is offering you a job then go for job without pay in first 1 or 2 months i also did this. coz i dint have any other way to push myself up. not a big deal many ppl do it. for exp. register on each and every site and pay them if u can they will get u a best job may Allah bless u take care. may you find a very good job soon. bye

Consider on getting on to a temp. agency which they are constantly sending people out to different jobs even if it's for several days at least you would be bringing in a little bit of money. Their jobs out their who prefer to hire employees through temp. agency's instead of dealing with people right off the streets.

Yes my best friend since 1978 is having a hard time she has been looking since about the same time with not any luck. Interviews but not one ounce of luck. I hope you and her both find something why not try something you really never thought of I know but sit down a minute and think you'll come up with several ideas go with them. Lots of Luck

Well, on the plus side, you can be thankful you aren't stuck in one of the 10 worst jobs in America:
