I’m feeling so hopeless in the job market. I can’t find an open teaching job, I can’t support myself on sub/para work in summer. Nobody has called me back besides 2 sales rep jobs. All I see are SpEd, nursing, manual labor, or trucking. Help me

I feel you except I’m looking for film internships 😭 no responses and I’ve applied to so many. I graduate so soon and have absolutely no idea how I’m gonna find a job if I can’t get an internship on my resume.

I apply to jobs that are train to certify or license me in my field usually it’s contract based. I’ve changed my resume a few times bc it was rough finding work. I applied in state and out of state bc the pay is usually better.

Yes, it’s been one of my mains. In my area I have found only 1 position in the last 2 years for my focus. And it was only summer school. Guess who didn’t get a call or email 😭 it’s strictly administrative, sped, or para work within 35 miles

ugh that sucks!!! could always see if there's any summer camps doing last minute hires if you wanted to switch it up for the summer and see if anything opens up in the next few months for the school year

I don’t even think I want to teach anymore bc of the over saturated environment here. My main most pressing issue is finding a job now, to make my expenses work I need $21 minimum for loans, insurances, phone, gas, and my personal care items or a snack here and there. I don’t even get my take out or fast food. Luckily I live at home but I really had hoped by now I’d be salary based to move out
