I’m still looking for a job. It’s now been over 2 years since I worked and I’ve been looking for a job all this time. I do office work and can’t sit or stand for long periods of time so sales jobs are out of the question for me.
It gets very frustrating sending out resume after resume and not getting a call or going to an interview and not getting hired.
But on the upside my house is always nice an clean!
I’m still looking for a job. I do clerical/office work and can use a variety of computer programs such as Microsoft Word, Excel, Quicken and different document management software programs. I have been doing this type of work for the past 22 years and consider myself quite experienced. I am self-taught on the computer and I am a quick learner. I can use a lot of different types of office machines such as faxes, copiers and scanners.
The reason I haven’t found a job yet is that the job market for my type of work is not very good. There aren’t a lot of jobs out there for general office workers and secretaries. I was working at a temp job in 2008 and was laid off at the end of the season. The company decided, because of the economy, not to bring in temp workers in 2009. Because I was a temp worker I didn’t pay in enough to unemployment that the unemployment I did get only lasted a couple months. I have been without any income, except for a little here and there since April of 2009.
I haven’t given up. I’m still looking. I send out resumes and have even tried to make my resume better but either I don’t hear anything or I go to an interview and don’t get the job.
