To the current job seekers

To all those currently looking for a job right now I just want to say don’t give up!! You can do this , I know with the pandemic it definitely changed the job market game . After sending hundreds of applications and getting no responses it can make you feel hopeless .  I started my new job 2 weeks ago , I spent a good 6 months applying to places .

I haven't worked in two years, and I'm in a position where I need to work again. It is fucking brutal out here. The jobs i qualify for barely pay for me to survive and it's just me and my partner. Kudos to anyone trying to do this with kids. 


Thank you for the encouragement 🔆

I had to find a side hustle cause my part time job isn't cutting it even though I still can't afford to pay all my bills I might just get this unemployment and start this small business

Jobs aren't even hiring like they say they are. There's nothing to even "give up" on.

Regrettably, I actually had to give up job searching to take care of a family member cause of ✨cancer✨

Been applying to jobs for a good while, no luck yet. Glad I'm in classes part-time to make up for it and to hopefully boost my CV as I go along

im coming to you from the start of the american recession to encourage you! don't give up! don't be afraid to ask for help either!!

it's ok if you've been looking for over 3 months, 6 months, a year, a year and a half.

you know you've been applying every day, making it to every interview, setting up your resume, you're doing all you can!

don't be afraid to try out new things! don't waste your time on ghost job listings, make sure the store is hiring and to call them back if you can. but most of all ASK FOR HELP!!!

go on unemployment because you are given a case manager who's job it is to find you work. if they can't do their job it will reflect on them so they will do their best for you. you will get access to job fairs and first offers for new job listings and even job training!

GOOD LUCK!!! even if it takes playing the long game you'll get there! :D
