I just don’t think working 2 minimum wage jobs to barely get by economically is worth my time and energy anymore. Going back to school would be nice if it wasn’t so expensive! How can I break the cycle of underemployment?

I am hearing impaired deaf i need more hours of work i need to find second job to look for ... thanks

Do you really think this employee should have been FIRED for writing this hardship letter to her CEO?? https://medium.com/@taliajane/an-open-letter-to-my-ceo-fb73df021e7a#.yb5ncyquz


I am a single mother and had brain surgery and couple years ago. Until recently, I was unable to work and my memory is spotty to say the least. I just began earning a little money online from freelancing and I need help. I am willing to work extremely hard and am tired of being told I'm a liability. I have taught myself to create websites, I have been in Virtual Assistant/Clerical environments and put my all into everything I do. I love helping people and here's what I need your help with please. My grandparents helped my son and I so much financially after the brain surgery. My 93 year old grandpa is gonna have to get heart surgery on February 24th, 2016 and I have been unable to become successful or even get my son and I a place to live and I promised myself I would do everything I can to show him and my grandma that their help means the world to me. I need them to know things with my son and I will be OK and that I can take care of it.
Does anyone have any suggestions or jobs that need someone's immediate help? Anything that pays will do, I can do almost anything and I will be grateful for any work.
I'm sorry, but I have only a week and I know people have their own problems t deal with and they probably don't think someone who had brain surgery and is considered a liability to most would be of any use. But I am desperate and will never forgive myself if I can't put his mind at ease knowing we'll be alright before his surgery.
I will make everyone who is nice enough to help proud to have done so. Please forward to anyone who might let me work immediately. I work online so I can virtually assist anyone in the world. If this goes nowhere I still can't give up. I will make my success out of nothing but determination, hard work and always continuing forward.
Thank you in advance to anyone that has taken the time to read my cries for help. Please feel free to respond with any info. Thank you.

Despite meeting or exceeding all criteria, I get a rejection notice I "don't meet criteria" to every job application submitted to numerous companies. The position is exactly as I had in recent past; excellent references and no negative or "do not hire" notices in my work history. The hire process is entirely online with no one to speak to in Human Resources or Talent Acquisition. It's getting to the point of absurdity; 50+ apps. Any ideas?

After months of job searching I took an entry level maintenance job which I’ve had now for about 3 months. The hours and pay are okay but I keep thinking that I’m wasting my education and potential. I fear being stuck here for the next 10 years with no career growth.


Hi Donald, Thanks for posting. We all know how difficult it can be to find a job. Luckily we have Jobcase to help us! I did a search in your area and found a lot of things going on. If you have any specific positions you are looking at, you can enter those into the search field to narrow it down. http://bit.ly/1HNTH8p Best of luck!

I used to ask myself the same question but I'm finding out that a high percentage of the job opening for senior career job seekers with 20 or more years of industry experience typically go unadvertised. Company's use a very different recruiting process for those positions if they choose to recruit outside of the organization; and that's a big if! These are very limited jobs openings with a large candidacy pool so the competition is high. What's the specific feedback your getting from your job applications?
