It depends where you are, what your qualifications are, and what you are applying for.

Being able to pass a criminal & drug screen is a great start. There are parts of the country where inability to pass the checks are excluding 99% of the applicants.

Look at what jobs you are applying to. How many OTHERS are you competing with ? Is this a long term career or a dead end ?

We have too many retail people for too few jobs. Are you in a situation like that.

What kind of people are NEEDED where you are? What will it take to get you the qualifications so that you will fit the DEMAND and NOT the GLUT?

You're most likely in need of a few skill updates. If you're willing to run a few searches using this website: https://onetonline.org (it will reveal all sorts of careers/options/educational requirements/job boards). Then.., here's the challenging part. If you hold firmly in your mind the following beliefs ... but do not let anyone talk you out of these beliefs, no matter what's appearing in the outer reality, your beliefs guide your actions. Your beliefs inspire new actions. Convert the "It's hard to get a job." No..., it isn't into..., "There's a lot of work available, but many jobs aren't even posted." (Hidden Jobs Market information will appear.) A commonly-held misconception that it's hard to get a job is based on a scant number of actual postings. However, if you're taught how to transform your job search, you'll be able to tap into jobs that others don't know about! Now, based upon beliefs that people hold at a mass consciousness level, for example, has more to do with the fact that many individuals do not necessarily know how to research or leverage information that will generate profound outcomes (related to obtaining genuinely gainful hire). Therefore, it's ok if you don't know how to research a variety of challenges because this is a skill that's taught at higher levels of education. In undergrad, at graduate, and at Doctoral levels, people are so inundated with work and studies that they learn to become wise humans. They learn to leverage the Internet for problem-solving. So ... Google is a great tool. However, you have to also watch out for scammers, and that's why you'll want to leverage U.S. Gov't websites: like ... the U.S. Dept of Labor. These websites also appear with the URL or pathname, followed by dot gov. Anything else could be an illegal website. Ok. So ... back to beliefs. You have to catch negative beliefs because what you think creates more of what you think (and ... thus, don't want). Watch out for negative beliefs held by the masses. Seek to write down all of your fears, then list logical solutions positioned next to each fear. Seek to answer constructively all of your concerns. https://www.careerconfidential.com , Peggy McKee teaches positive mindset in her free seminars. I highly recommend that you tackle some of her free conference calls. Then, continue to obtain her low-cost to free downloadable books available at Amazon online. Just enter Peggy McKee. Take all of your concerns related to job search, then list each concern. What you'll find is that at the public level, hundreds of thousands of job seekers harbor these identical fears. The ones who succeed in obtaining better work are the ones who can translate and communicate their abilities with hiring managers. That's all that they're doing! Hang in there. Don't give up. Carve out a pathway for yourself, then tackle every small step incrementally. You'll be amazed what you can accomplish when you have access to the right information. Here's the U.S. Dept of Labor ..., https://www.dol.gov/ . Also, here is Career One Stop. https://www.careeronestop.org/ResourcesFor/EntryLevel/entry-level.aspx . There's also a workforce initiative located in your city or nearby metro area, if you live in a state that's less populated. (Example of real workforce center: https://www.ppwfc.org/ .) Just enter the name of your local city and state in Google.

I have a great resume and the experience to back it up, however I have domestic violence felonies on my record, I am very concerned that this would prevent from finding a good job, any advice?? thanks

Sometimesit takes a While to a job you what kellygoon.

It's hard because the whole process is "throwing spaghetti against the wall" and seeing what sticks.

It used to be you could do a one-on-one with an employer, do the song and dance, get a response in a reasonable amount of time.

Now, post-2008, you put your name in a bucket (online applications) with everyone else's, and spin the wheel!

A few things:

• Helps to know people already on the inside.
• A clean and sharp resume that stands on its own also helps.
• Good character, clean background check & drug test.
• Certificates, degrees, also very helpful.
• Try and be of good cheer and don't be afraid to switch up your interview techniques now and then - try changing your tone of voice, posture, sense of humor, etc.

Good luck, you're definitely not alone!

Go to areas, if you can where cities are going threw regenderfication..... I left Pennsylvania in 2010 because i could not find a job... I relocated to Columbus, Ohio. And I was hired right away..... I came back to Pennsylvania in 2017, and was only able to find a Part-Time Job for a Warehouse/ Lumber Store....... Its ridiculous, I have made a mistake and will be moving back to Ohio....
