I need a job how do i get one?
-
I've tried everything possible. I've tried fast food joints, department & clothing stores, regular stores, restaurants, I've even tried office jobs for any place or company. I even tried to get a county job but because I don't live within city limits I can't apply. I applied to 5 jobs the other day THIS WEEK and got all NO. I've fancied up my resume and made it plain. I've added what I needed to and deleted what had to go. SO WHY can't i get a job in pittsburgh pa?? Then to top it off not only do I get nothing from monster & career builder but I've gotten more sickos and trolls from craigslist and backpage. I just want a job I don't care what it is just as long as the employer understands I don't have reliable transportation and I just can't up and move or relocate. So where are the jobs in Pittsburgh, PA??? Why am I getting declined for everything I apply for?? No I don't have a degree or training but I know there's a lot of people who get a job quicker than I did...HIGH SCHOOL DROP OUTS EVEN!! What exactly am I doing wrong?? Or should I just accept the fact I'll never get a job or any help from the stupid state and government and that one day i'm going to be homeless?? I resent when people call me irresponsible because I don't have a job but it's not my fault if a place refuses to hire me. And then they say it's my fault I dropped out of college, I didn't have a choice my father died my aid was taken away and I couldn't afford it anymore. I didn't go to parties and didn't participate in clubs and I had no social life but I'm wrong and I'm being punished. So what exactly do I do?? no degree, no job, and i guess by next year this time I'm going to be homeless. Forget praying and hoping and waiting I've been playing this job game for too many years and I'm tired. I'm frustrated and very much ticked off.....i went through hell in high school and college just to have some douchewaffle people eat me alive and others rub my face in my shortcomings that wasn't my fault. this is beyond unfair don't you think??

Answer:
Omfg I know exactly how you feel. I've tried to get a job too but all they hire are idiots and illegals that can't even speak english. Really makes you wonder wtf is America coming to. I'm thinking of moving out of this country if I ever get the chance. I agree it is extremely unfair -_-

First, understand that employers want to hire people who are optimistic, happy and positive. Your bitterness and frustration is understandable, but if even a tiny hint of it comes across when you try to get jobs, that's the problem right there. As far as a constructive solution, try Googling "free job seeker support group Pittsburgh." You can find groups that will provide all the information and support you need to get more traction with your job hunt. Good luck!

I need an assistant to help me with some stuff [you can do the job from your pc, when you want, as long as you do it]. There might even be another spot, if the interest is high and we can agree about the payroll! I don't think requirements would be a problem for anyone on this forum, but here they are: - facebook - level 99 (although an account and some active friends should be enough) - google account (incl Youtube, Google Plus) - Twitter (I prefer you already have an account there, even if it's dormant) - Forums, blogs (know how to post/leave a comment) - if you heard of digg, stumbleupon or pinterest you have an advantage - enough iq so you can figure out how a website works This job doesn't involve spamming anything, in fact it's more like a social media manager. Please send mail me at (d i r w i z a r d @ g m a i l . c o m (first test would be to get my mail right)

Not sure if your only applying to jobs online but walking around and handing in resumes helps. Going on Craigslist helps going to an employment agency helps Also apply to every retail, grocery, bank and drugstore. Look for security jobs and customer service jobs. I know you've applied to crappy jobs but have you applied to all types of businesses? Maids and janitors make decent money too. Also maybe you can rent a room in your house to make extra income. Or get a roommate. I had a friend share her studio. Big corporations often always hire. I live in Chicago and just discovered that Target and Old Navy always hire. Also I'm not sure how long you're been looking but the longest its ever taken me is 3 months and one time that was too late so to avoid living in a homeless shelter for the month before waiting for my job to start I moved back with my parents. It sucked but that's an option. You might also be able to go to college and get financial aid and loans. I've been living off my student loans for awhile and am a student. The most important thing is to stay positive. Your additional details come off as frustrated and very angry and if your getting interviews and you have a less than stellar attitude or seem to desperate it will be hard to find work. I personally have enough $ to last til Sep 1st. I need a job, so I understand how hard it is and how scary it can be. worse case scenario is to do a webcam show. Go online to find free sites to work. If your desperate for $ its better than striping and an option for men too. Also people cant record you. My friend does it and its nice to know that worse case scenario you can do this. You can block certain states and countries too. When you make 100 or more you get a check. I hope you find a job soon. Good luck
Try doing volunteering work in the type of job you want that way you can get some experience and the one job you really want keep on applying so they get so fed up they say ok we'll give you a chance and then you have to appove yourself that's what I did hope it helps
WOW, you have really tried! I suggest creating a nice resume of your experience and going around your town. There are definitely many places in PA that are looking for new employees. Try going outside of your town, and maybe go to stores that aren't near you. You might find a nice job in a store that you haven't seen. Do you have a Paypal account? iWriter is actually an online Freelancing website that pays weekly. Just sign up for FREE. Yes, that was true. FREEEEE Just sign up and see how much cash you can make. I promise you, you will make money from this website. http://iWriter.com If you don't want an online job, do not go to Craigslist. There are so many scams on that site. This brand new classified ads site is FREE as well, but the job postings are all real here. I am sure that you will find a job here. Employers all over the US are posting jobs available for everybody to take. http://tinyurl.com/NewJobsForEverybody Hope I helped Helped!
