Feeling Discouraged

I have been looking for work since July and I’m baffled as to why I’m not getting anything. I’m also homeless and this even compounds my situation even more. Any suggestions. I can use all the prayer I can get.

Shellie, I so understand. I have a BA in Psych too with years of social service experience. Very difficult to locate a new job. currently I'm an independent recruiter. May be time to change your focus. I just saw a new job post for "Program Associate, Managed Organizations" on the Work For Good website. The job is with Arabella Advisors in New York. Are you familiar with Work For Good (they post all social work /public admin and philanthropy jobs); for this job check their site or go directly to Arabella Advisors website.

If I come across any others will let you know. Be blessed!

It's crazy because I've been in your exact shoes and when I did get a job, I applied for a temporary rental assistance through social services while scouting for a landlord who would accept welfare checks for security and rent, so maybe try that out and see where it takes you. In the meantime, have you tried a shelter to at least have a place to rest your head at night? Also, see if you have a Catholics charity in your area, because they place you into homes and help you get food stamps and general assistance until you get on your feet.

I’ve been applying for jobs since July too and haven’t got one yet. But people I know apply for the same job and get it.
