There is an "urge" in many humans to be a part of something. I'm one of those humans. Since being let go from my job, I've felt a bit lost. I'm entering the "I'm worthless" phase. Does anyone have any pointers for getting a company to look at your resume? Pointers for getting a company to look at your resume when you are as old as I am? I've been unemployed for nearly 4 months and have only had one interview (I've sent out nearly 100 resumes). I'm honestly not sure where to go from here.
@cmccullough I've heard from a few people that #FediHire has been useful to them. It's not as powerful as the network effect of some social media sites, and I hope that will change
@cmccullough and to note, you aren't worthless! You are a loved human being who deserves to be happy and fulfilled
@webhat Thank you!
@cmccullough, living in another country, I cannot have information about the possibilities in yours, I can only encourage you and share your post, in case anyone has some ideas.
Don't lose your self-esteem, this would be the worst thing you can do.
Cheer up
Chad, I feel you. I decided to change my entire career focus at 48.
Despite my skills and a well written resume I couldn’t get my number on anyone’s list.
Months went by.
My ego took a huge hit.
Any interview I managed to get I was overqualified for.
The feelings of being non-employable beat at my brain.
You’ll find something, or something will find you.
@Pagan_Animist Thank you!
You are so welcome.
@cmccullough Boosted. All the best, comrade.
@MediaActivist Thank you!!!
