I’m trying not to put all my eggs in one basket by continuing my job search in an area that doesn’t have to do with the internet. I’m 27, have a 4 yr degree in English, and did too much temping after college so now it seems I’m stuck because I initially moved out of state after college but then moved back home.. needless to say I don’t have many networking contacts for that reason.
Is it ok to just walk in to offices in, say, an industrial park and ask if they have any jobs? I assume I’d be asked to visit their website, but you never know right? Anyone else get a job this way?
I’ve been applying and interviewing for cust service/entry level jobs for the past 3 months to no avail. And can’t afford fast-food salary but am ready to do it. Just maddening. What did my parents pay for? They’re ready to kick me out but I’m busting my *** 8 hours a day looking. Any help is appreciated.
sorry for the choppy sentences, wrote it on a whim.
Seriously, it *****. To clue you in…
Well, I am 21 still living with my parents in the middle of BFE. I would love to move out but I can’t because I don’t have a job and I cant get one since my car is broke down. My parents dont have the money at the moment (and theyve been living paycheck to paycheck for the last several months) to get my car fixed. So in order for me to get a job it has to be 3rd shift (so i can use my moms van when she isnt at work) and that job hunt has been a pain in the ***. Not to mention the other day my mom threw my contacts away on accident so Im really screwed hince the I have to work 3rd shift, my vision is 20/110 and my parents dont have the money for contacts right now. Also, Ive been really depressed over the end of my 4 year relationship. Seriously what in the hell would you people do in a situation like this? Keep in mind I live in the country and any kind of life and friends are atleast 30 minutes away..or I would so walk to a job. Im so lost…
FYI Im not complaining, I would just like some opinions. Im a optimistic person and I know this is just a bump in the road of this thing we call life. The great one above me has decided to take a dump and it’s all falling on me at the moment. Im not negative and I love living my life it’s just at this moment, eh, it’s not so great.
Just arrived to Australia (Brisbane), don’t know anybody here, looking for a job in Audit or Accounting, any good advice ?
Monster.com never really worked out for me. I used my universities links for when i was in CA. but im moving somewhere else now, and am not sure how to go about finding work. I have a college degree, have 3 years work experience..it ***** having to start from scratch. i really **** the job hunt more than the job itself most of the time.
I’m a college student looking for a full-time job to pay for my bills and tuition. I’ve been applying everywhere using hotjobs, craigslist, and even applying in person. I’ve never waitressed, and I’m really not into retaill; I want a job that’ll look good on my resume.
So far I’m having little success. I’ve gotten a few interviews, but no job offers. I got an interview as a bank teller, but the position was too far to commute so the Bank Recruiter claims she’s looking for a closer position for me. I’ll believe it when I see it. I’m just getting very discouraged.
Should I just go to a temp agency and hope for the best? I’m not low on cash right now, but I will be unless I can find a job in the next month or so? Maybe my standards are too high…
Job hunting *****.
Recently my circimstances in life have changed drastically and have forced me to move out of my parent’s house and find a job and somewhere to live. I am a high school graduate who, until recently, went to a local college to get a Bachelor’s in Accounting. I do not have a degree yet because I can’t get funding to resume my collegiate studies (I have already been to the financial aide office and although I can raise some of the tuition money, I can’t raise it all without a cosigner for a student loan). My family is not helping nor speaking to me due to circumstances beyond my control. I need to find a job that can support me for the means to live on my own. Restaurants do not pay enough for rent, etc. I am 20, articulate, attractive, and professional and have strong aptitudes in Mathematics and Science. Any suggestions of a job I can obtain to make ends meet until I get my life back in focus? I need your advice.
I am currently unhappy where I am currently employed and I wish to find another job.
The only problem is, I do not really have one particular thing that I want to do. Of course, education is a big factor, and I have only attended some college.
I am a very artistically talented and intelligent individual. I can write, paint, draw, take photographs, and I have tons of work experience, but I don’t know what field my resume’ should be geared towards. In any job I have had I could accomplish any task that was put in front of me, but I am having trouble specifying what to put in my resume that will capitalize on these things.
Right now I am a technical writer, but I only have 5 months technical writing experience, and a lot of resume’ websites want specifics on job field. Any advice on what I should do to brush up my resume’ with the talents I have?
involving this?

I am graduating from Northern Illinois University this December with a BS in Finance. I am looking for any tips on good companies to work for(based on personal experience, not random polls) in the Chicagoland area. Also, any tips on how I can make myself stand out from the rest of the applicants in the tough times we are in would be appreciated. Any other help you can offer would be great. Thanks in advance!
