Got a string of rejections for my applications on Indeed.

I live in the US and I haven’t landed an interview since last year.

I’m working on my resume now, but if there are any tips on where to look, or services that might help connect me with work, I’m all ears.

I’ve got a graduate education and I’m considering omitting that information as I apply to entry level positions. What kind of sick joke is it that someone can be overqualified for a job?

Also if you want to commiserate and say work sucks in different ways, that’s cool too.

    Not to be a broken record and it definitely isn’t an ideal job for everyone, but:

    If you live in the US and are anywhere with a significant population, not even a major city, the Postal Service is most likely hiring and they basically don’t care about your work history or education or anything.

    It will be very physical and you will be working with a lot of people who are not educated like you are and many are likely to be old CHUDS, but it’s unionized, it’s decent money and the benefits are still okay.

    They take applications (last I checked) through their own hiring website, no resume needed you just plug in your information. But expect to be given an absurd amount of work for your time as a non career employee.

    I can go on but that’s one option. Sorry about your situation, job hunting sucks and is humiliating. Best of luck comrade.
