Being Jobless

Be positive and everything will be okay. It is natural that you don't find a job right away and since you just took the board exam, you really need to wait. Better opportunities will come if you passed the board exam. To tell you mine, I graduated in April 2002 but got my first job February 2003 only. I also took the board examination and luckily passed it. I have applied for jobs after that but I really don't know why I don't get it. Now I know why, because God has a better plan for us. I should never rush because there is much better job for me. Right now, I am still working with the same company who hired he 10 years ago. I am happy and contented. So see there's no need to worry. Best of luck for you.

Welcome to one of life's bitter realities! Been there, done that, and I can say I almost had cabin fever for staying home most of the time lol! It would be a bit better if I can go and hang out with friends even for a while but the thing is I'm a broke fresh graduate begging for a job. I also have this huge pride to go asking my folks for money except when I'm going to interviews and stuff. This too shall pass; at least you have mylot for starters :) Congratulations btw on graduating, and good luck on the results of your exams!

While waiting you could take some courses on something simple like cooking, arts and crafts, making cakes... Well, I know it's easier said than done. In fact, I would be just like you, getting fats... cause when I am nervous I like to eat...

well..i guess ur not the only one in that situation,, i have lots of friends and classmates that are jobless too, finding a job is indeed hard, i also find it hard to find my job,everyday i go to town and search every corners of it to find a vacant job that fits me,well after my hardships i end up being an office clerk on a shipping company. i think you must do something to be able to have a work,do not just stay at home and wait for something to come.. you may start even in a small company,just do for it! :D gudluck dear!

Yes being jobless sucks!! I come from a small town and it has very few jobs in it for people who are not highly educated. I am not a College grad or anything I finished High school and entered the workforce.. in this town that's just what you do. I lost my job that I had for many years a few years back and since then I have been lucky enough to find another.. but for a long while I had nothing at it was very bad feeling. Good luck to you in you're search!

hello! you are not alone.am a jobless,too. :( though, am not a fresh grad. i had job experiences for three years already and had passed the board exam as well. i resigned only this year for some reasons. i actually thought that it will be easy for me to land in a job having such qualifications but i was mistaken. it turns out to be so hard. why? because i somehow became choosy. i tend to compare the available jobs with my previous job and i find it difficult to find something that matches may criteria. yeah, i have a list of things that i need to consider in getting a job. not only the companies should set qualifications for applicants from whom they will benefit; we must also look into the potential companies that will make us benefit. it has to be a win-win process. however, when i was a fresh grad, i had a different mentality. i was like, "i needed to get a job, whatever it is" so as to appear productive in the eyes of my family and friends. plus i was expected to be working after years of study because that's already the pay back time. so, i immediately grabbed the first opportunity that knocked my door. i didn't regret it though i was earning only half of the salary i used to earn in my second job. working for me is like taking a ladder that goes up; you start at the bottom but you must try to step up one at a time. now, am praying that i could get to work abroad; that for sure will make me double the steps. so,let's just be hopeful that things will go our way. May God bless all the jobless out there. :)

Looking for a job can be a full time job itself. Don't give up! Most of us have been there before, some of us will be there again. As long as you are looking for a job, you are not useless. Hang in there.

Yes, it's not easy being jobless and it's not easy to find a job either. Maybe you can try searching and apply for part time jobs to avoid the boredom and while waiting for the results. I wish you luck with your exams as well and for job hunting

its really hard to life if we are jobless because we feel hardiness in our life,especially when our family also have no good income at all,that is why many of the people find ways on how to earn in many and different ways.

Life is designed that way. You might have to wait while your batch mates may have gone ahead landing on a job. I personally know of three young men who made it to the board exams together. One was not lucky enough to find a job. What he did was go with some friends to pan for gold for the first few months. Soon they were tunneling for the precious metal and hit it rich within that year. Since then, he stayed in the mines, Built a house and married a local lass, and drives an SUV. His two batch mates commute to their jobs to and from their rented quarters.

Congratulation for finishing your studies and here's wishing you pass the board exams. Welcome to the real world as well.Now you have to hunt for job opportunities that will at least augment your earnings from your loading and accessories business as well. It is expected for young graduates to be choosy, idealistic with high expectations but they will be the right ones to assess themselves. I have been in the call center industry for more than five years, but before that, I was a stay at home mom who depended everything on my husband. Though it was a struggle when I started working, the patience and perseverance had paid off. But because my schedule usually were evening shifts, there were days that I felt I needed to catch on sleep . Before there were few call centers who offered morning shifts and they were that basic was just small as there were no night differentials. Now things had changed as the industry had heard the demand for morning call centers. This is just a suggestion as other people think all call center agents who handle US, British or Australian accounts speak well in English. Not so when one is starting. Your communication skill developed not just by training but by constantly speaking the language every day. Plus there are also medical,dental,vacation and incentive benefits available once you get regularized not to mention the 13 month pays and vacation/sick leave benefits you get as an employee. All the best to you !

yeah, just don't be sad. things where just there for you, waiting the time to bloom. finishing a degree is a bless that is why do not feel sorry because you graduated already. wait for the result first then decide what to do. it is nice to have a job when you are eligible already because your rate will be based with it. to ease your boredom, there are lots of options to hang on to. bear with patience and perseverance. good luck though..
