Why can't I find a job?

Question

I have earned a Bachelor's degree in corporate finance. I have gone to all of the employment websites (e.g. Monster.com, careerbuilder.com, hotjobs.com, etc.) In addition, I have gone to all of the companies websites that are headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio. I have also gone to employment agencies. I earned my degree 3 1/2 years ago and have worked diligently to find a job. I am running out of patience and don't know what to do. PLEASE HELP ME!

Answer 1

A lot of times in the job world it's less about what degree you have or your credentials and it's more about who you know. Use your networking, find people you know who might have a job opportunity for you, branch out, even try finding a job on here-who knows when a coroporate executive might get bored and venture onto this site? It could happen. Also, try making a killer resume and mailing it to every executive office you might be interested in. An actual piece of paper resume is more impressive than a form filled out online. That doesn't work, dress up in your finest and go from office to office looking for job openings and try to snag an interview. Don't stop until you've got something, and GOOD LUCK!

Answer 2

One of the reason why someone cant get a job is their ability to convince the employer during the interview. Your education background support your ability at 50% only and the other percentage is your working experience, your appearance, communication skills, grroming and some believes that 10% is depend on your luck!
So Keep on trying. Do not give up.
Work at home while still cant get job out there!!! Go for the internet business which require less of your time and the one that will not make you feel headache with web designing or which require IT knowledge. Second, choose the internet based company which offer you the opportunity and at the same time giving you the convenience to start the business. Third, choose the business which does not require big money to start it.

There could be several issues:

1) If you are not getting interviews, you might have a problem with your resume. You may need to write a better one.

2) If you are getting interviews but no offers, the problem is your interviewing skills.

I recommend reading "Knock 'Em Dead" by Martin Yate.

Also, go down to a tem agencey that specializes in Finance Jobs and apply as a temp. This will give you some experience on your resume and you may even be hired off an assignment. Try AccountTemps and Robert Half, and others located in Cleveland.

Monster , Yahoo Hotjobs, Careebuilder are some of the largest job
boards, where you can upload
your resume. Since Craigslist, allows free job postings, many smaller
companies post their
vacancies on this online classifieds website. You can search for jobs
from multiple websites using
aggregators like SimplyHired and Indeed. Referrals are also becoming a
increasingly popular way to
get hired. More details available at http://tinyurl.com/emdyn

Answer 6

Are you looking for a specific type of job or any job? Well I bet if you look for entry level jobs, you should be able to get to one. Also there are other factors like if you go to the interview, how you present yourself etc. My guess is that you might be a little picky on your job search, worst case, go to a temp agency and ask them to place you in some companies you like to work at, and go in as a temp, get to know people there, the doors will open themselves after that.

Go to a Christian Science Reading Room; ask the librarian for articles on work, employment, etc. The articles teach you how to think, so the job appears. It really works. Christian Science is always the last restort, when it should be the first.
