Hello all, I've had three interviews in the month of February

I've had three interviews in February and for the life of me I can't understand why nobody want to hire me. I'm so frustrated and depressed and I don't know what else to do. My life sucks!

Well, you are in a great position to live a fact. Your life does not suck. You may have challenges, which are opportunities to grow. Strong people overcome those challenges and move on to better things. You are way more than you give yourself credit for, and I bet people are seeing that. It is to be positive and confident and kind all at the same time. Confidence is like magnet pulling things you want towards you . People feel good around confident people. Show confidence instead of humility. It is good to be humble, but people want to know that YOU believe in yourself because when we believe in ourselves we are powerful. Great job in getting INTERVIEWS!!! That means you have the right stuff on paper, now you need to SELL you to the worthy employer of your choice. When you feel like you don't have anything to say in an interview, remember the interview goes both ways. Own it. Ask questions like "Give me two reasons I should commit myself to this company" "Tell me about the hardest personality you have to deal with" "tell me about how you resolve conflicts" "Would you want someone to have your job?" etc...

I have had many on phone interviews and a few in person interviews and it seems like no one is really hiring even though they tell me i have all the qualifications that they would need in someone that is match for the position yet i havent gotten any calls to come to interview again or start a job...

seems like companies are somewhat at a stand still within this time and economy

Wendy, Have you redone your resume? Reach out to some of our senior recruiters on this website. JobCase also has a tool for resume writing and updating. Just get into and hit on your profile and it will walk you through it. Also does your resume measure up to the specifications of the job? Does your cover letter reflect what you can accomplish for the company? Also, research the company's profile and mention something that you observed about them or read about them to the interviewer. Finally, if you are not comfortable with your interviewing skills do mock interviews in front of a spouse or sibling or in the mirror. Practice those skills until you are comfortable with your talking points and answers. Lastly, remember to follow-up with a thank you letter or e-mail approximately 1 to 2 weeks after your interview to keep your name out there. In addition, the US Census Bureau is temporary however they are hiring till 2020 nationwide. They are hiring receptionist/office clerks, Field Supervisors, and field personnel as well as administrative office people. 2020cesus.gov/jobs I hope I was able to help you TYJ

Wendy,I walked your shoes,and I went into depression mode,I got mad at myself for doubting my father in heaven,I have had more crying days,then praying days,,SMH,Every morning my routine was waking up to my bible scriptures,then I found myself waking up to my email,and not my bible,and got so caught up in finding a job,until I forgot who was ahead of my life..So I had been slacking on church,and fellowship,and So when I went to church last Sunday,I went to the alter and poured it all out to Jesus,and Father help me,I can't do this without you,and I been trying to do it on my own without you father,I told him I pushed him away figuring I can do it on my own,and please father I'm running to you,who I serve first,not my internet,So in your precious name,I'm now back in spiritual touch with,and please take this depression away,I rebuke depression anymore,,and father you lead me,,Not me leading me,Amen,and look at me now 4days later I have a job,and start Tomorrow..So Pray,Scream it out worship,and praise him,and you will have a job..SEEK,AND YOU SHALL FIND..
