Hi there,I have been trying to get a decent job for a long time..It has become so depressing lately...I have so much to offer. I have always been loyal and hard working and have done many things that were not in my job description, but i like to help out whenever i can..I have become extremely depressed and i don't see things changing..I am 52 yrs old, fashion forward and well groomed...I have had a really hard life, married and now divorced..I have thought about going back to school, but i can't afford to do that...What am i doing wrong??? Can someone please help me????

Can you re-locate ? It might be the local economy. |

Since the economies down make sure when applying for jobs you give the application in person and ask for the manager when giving the appluication show your really ready to work |

Well you do need to go back to school to get a decent job. Sorry to say but the times have left you behind. Employers are looking for people who are not only willing to do various things but know a lot about technology. They would rather hire a fresh college graduate that knows how to use all the gadgets and who knows about the field he or she is going into, rather than a 52 year old that they have to teach. It saves the business money and time by hiring someone who has a college education. There are loans you can get and you can find a crappier job like serving in a restaurant or if you are still young looking then bartending while you go to school |

It's not what you know it's who you know. NETWORKING talk to people make friends so they can put you on a job. The average joe that fills out an app dosen't work in todays wold. |
