Yeah, it does look like it's going to get worse. It took me about 3-4 months to find a job. I applied for like 30 jobs and had only gotten 1 call back (their idea of researcher was different than mine and it only paid $18 ph). I was very disheartening and when I was starting to abandon hope, I got two interviews in the same week. Then I had a different problem to deal with because one offered me the job before I had my 2nd interview for the job I wanted more. The one I didn't take was in health care and the other was education. I'm a bit worried about lay-offs in the future, but so far, it doesn't look like it will come to that. If we get furlough-ed, I'll worry more.

Both made comments about how nice my resume was by the way. It looked nice, was in color, and was printed on heavy (32#) 100% cotton paper. It's an additional expense, but well worth it because your resume is a reflection of you. Even if they've seen your resume already because you applied electronically, you should take a bunch of hard copies to any interviews (take enough for panel interviews).

Good luck and stay positive!

Sig, I'm so sorry for replaying so late.

I think that is great advice. Plus I still have a lot of 100% cotton paper left from my thesis so I can use it for that.
I applied to a lot of places, and I got, "We have received your resume and feel that you are over qualified for this position...etc., etc."


But I have to say I have been finally living life again. FINALLY. I just need to feel my old self again. I'm working on it. Being a drama queen and crying endlessly about things I can't and CAN change, doesn't do anything but make me feel more depressed.

p.s Vegas was so awesome. And I love the beach! I can't wait for San Diego... need to go for the summer. Oh, and lots of museum going. =)

Eating ice is the best during this heat wave.

I'm sorry to hear that. And thank you!




Oh, I know. Its been a pretty hard couple of years now and it just seems to get worse.

The good news is that I finally got myself to work on my resume. I have two different styles of it. I'm not done yet but I think I'll send it off to a friend in a few days to tell me if it looks right or not. Its really nice putting my accomplishments on paper. I didn't know I did so much in such a short period of time.

That's the spirit. I can relate... not with the crying part because I was happy each time I was laid off, lol. Just remember... it's not how hard you fall but how fast you get up.

I'm sorry to hear that. And thank you!

Education is in terrible shape with budgets right now. That's the right idea though; just start the hunt. You'll find something.
