I just applied places until I got hired.
Retail isn't glamorous, but it's probably the easiest to get into. The world could always use more heroes! |

Posted by Halian saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame I feel you I have no tips about that, though, obv but currently I'm into a State program to help me find internships and jobs, they help you work your presentation and shit, they have access to the hidden job market, etc so there's hope? just avoid listening to crap like "you need 100+ applications to hope ever getting somewhere!!". that kind of shit tends to just throw me into depression. and try to see if your country offers similar programs unless it's lolUSA and "just pull yourself up by your bootstraps lololol" ____________________ Kuribo64 - melonDS want some revolution in your coffee? |

Maple Post-o-Matic 9.2 I do live in the USA. ;A;
I've even tried applying for SSI and the tests they make you do are too easy to fail. ____________________ Layout by Maple. Hoennese Realm Safir Alliance |

♥11883 ✿4705 ★50 I went to grad school for a few years (test-based admission, but in my field you get paid a stipend and don't have to pay tuition), which isn't a terrible idea if you want to stall out, but to stay in academia... it takes guts
Then I was unemployed for a year until I found a job through someone I followed on twitter... (for an entry-level position that basically just required computer/internet literacy), which I was able to parlay into moving into development. The super-frustrating thing is that a lot of employers won't even consider you until you already have a job, then they are desperate for you. |

Posted by Hālian You can apply for United Parcel Service, they're hiring for the holiday season. And if you can produce for them, they'll keep you. They have union benefits, 401K, medical insurance. And you get weekends and holidays off with pay after you're there for a year. It's hard work, that kida job is not for everybody. You can look at it like this, you're getting paid to work out. ____________________ Beacons.AI My Discord Server |
