“It’s very sad that– to have the qualifications and not be able to actually work, you know, get a job in your field. And I’ve been doing this 2007.”
I feel ya Trista.
I actually had a conversation with an employment agency guy in which he told me that I was basically OVER qualified AND UNDER qualified for any job he might ever encounter.
That just blew my mind.
In a deep, long recession like this one, all the old rules go flying out the window. There are only two things a jobseeker should be concentrating on: Can I beat out my competition and get this job and will it pay me just enough to support myself at a minimal level. That’s it.
