I am looking and can vouch first-hand for how bad it is out there.

I'm with ya too. There are some jobs out there but they might not be exactly what we want or trained for, don't pay a lot and sometimes not totally full-time thanks to Obongocare.

Nothing that MADE IN USA won’t solve. About everything you buy is made somewhere else. Bring the jobs home.

I'm not in the "favorable age" group and have been out of work since the end of September 2012....I have had two, count 'em two interviews....one person told me in no uncertain terms that I was too old for the job then tried to back track when I pointed out age discrimination. The other interview went just the same only the person didn't actually say the words "you're too old".......secondly, there are very few jobs out there and the job I lost in 2012 is now paying about $4 less an hour than what I was making at the time and there's a lot more responsibility now.

Me too, been looking for awhile now. People who are employed have no idea how rough it really is...

I wish you luck. I was out for work for six months last year, and finding a job was excruciatingly difficult. I finally wound up at a great company, but had to take a serious pay cut, at least for the near term.

Personal networking is the best way to find something. Forget about the online job sites and all that - they can give you ideas about who might be hiring in your area, but you've got to show up in person and get in front of someone. Otherwise, your resume will land on the pile with thousands of other victims of the Obamaconomy.

Drop me a line if you are interested in or have experience in insurance and/or financial services and I'll see what I can do for you.

Good Luck in your Hunt.
