To all who previously replied thank you - your encouragement and letting me know I’m not alone meant a lot.
I would also like to mention one individual offered to send a few dollars my way, and that’s more than I could’ve ever hoped for. It helped me get some groceries and gas, so THANK YOU.
In reference to applying at 2000+ jobs and not being employed, I didn’t mean to indicate I had NO response. I had many false starts, jobs where I went through multiple interview rounds, or jobs that just weren’t feasible (i.e 100+ miles away on-site). Particularly, I keep finding situations where I’m contacted by a company, asked to do a phone interview, then when I reply (usually within a few hours if not immediately) to schedule a time they just ghost me.
I did take up the offers to look over my resume via DM, but no one replied funny enough.
On to mental health - I’m better than I was. I still feel utterly hopeless, but maybe a bit less so ya know? My thoughts are… Difficult at times, but I keep moving forward as best I can.
All this to say thank you. I got more response than I ever expected, and I appreciated every one and I read them all. I hope you all have a good day, and keep pushing forward.
Didn’t see your last post. I know you said no one else responded, but I’m pretty big into fixing up resumes if you want to DM it to me?
It’s something I really enjoy doing, so I’d be more than happy to take a look. :)
Same, but I’ll just give my quick tips:
Your resume should be about what you ACCOMPLISHED, not what you were responsible for.
Your resume should be a table of contents into stuff you can talk about that will show you in a positive light, it’s not a book with lots of backstory and context.
Remembering those two key things will help with any resume.
