If you're anything like me (and you've got to be an ex-con folks!), there's that frustration thing kicking in after , say, three months out and not a bite on the job front. It's frustrating. Believe me, I get it. Dirty secret? I hit the ball out of the park the first time out without even trying. But I didn't claim the score for the home team. Why? I let the opinion of those I love influence me, and I've been kicking myself ever since because it was the wrong thing to do. Now here I am months later, flooded with emails, daily, from sites claiming to be the one to help me get THAT job. Ha! And if you're nodding your head with a grin on your face and a bitter laugh erupting from the depths of your belly, I get it. For all of the jobs that are out there, why in the world is it so damn hard to get one? Well, the thing we're using right now (your computer, or even a smartphone) has messed the world up big time. Personal opinion. All of those sites claiming to be able to help are about as fraudulent as they get. I'm sick and tired of zip recruiter, monster, jobs2careers, and all of the other worthless ones making the same claims and rerouting you to different sites doing the same thing. It's a vicious cycle. And let me make a correction here because I am not blind to the fact that those of you out there who aren't walking around with a big fat X on your back are struggling too. It sucks. I know. But we've got to keep moving forward. My advice? And I intend on following it starting tomorrow morning: pound the pavement. Start hitting up the businesses face to face. This crap about relying on these job sites needs to be outlawed at best. And you don't want to know what I think should happen to them personally! Heck, I'm using this forum on this site, aren't I? And even this company is giving me a headache. Why? It seems none of them deliver what they claim, and it's a waste of your effort, time, patience and sanity. Get out there people. It's about the only way we're going to get our feet in the door. Best of luck to all of you.

I'm so frustrated with myself right now. I have countless applications/resumes out there and I just got a call from a recruiting agency and I agreed to a screening interview over the phone. Everything was fine until she asked about the salary and I stumbled over this because I couldn't remember that particular position and what they had listed as salary. The last time I had to search for a job was nine years ago and I had kept a notebook with notations on the position so I could refer back if they called me. I keep a notepad on all the different companies that I've applied to that I had to register on their site just because its too hard to remember all the ID's and passwords. Does anyone else have this problem?

So I've had my share of interviews and I usually know what to prepare for. However, I am currently looking for another job position and I received an email stating they viewed my resume online or it was given to them as a referral. I called the person and when I spoke to them, they asked if I could send a copy of my resume and...get this...if they could have the last 4 digits of my SSN. First things first, I've never met these people yet and you're asking me for something very personal. And second, you just told me you received my resume off a job site or got it as referral from someone. This makes no sense to me, so I didn't send them anything again. Has this happen to anyone before?
