Had my second interview last Thursday and got the job iofferr today. This site is great, I learned alot.. Got sone really great advise for my resume. I am 61 and felt really low to be starting b over again. Tthe support is really great hearing from others in similar situation and same age group. Someone did appreciate my years of experience and said I am what they needed. Great to hear that after so many rejections, scamners and liars. . It is tough out there, but keep going as someone will tell you that you are exactly what they have been looking for. Good luck!

PISSED OFF!
A while back I posted a post titled "Rock Bottom". In the post I explained my situation, which at the time I had recently been evicted and had gone with my three youngest children to go live with my dad. He and I barely get along, and I couldn't take being there any longer....I was spiraling into deep depression. I voluntarily went to a shelter with my children in order to have peace of mind (sounds ironic I know ) and to get help with housing. I was at the shelter for about 4 mos. On December 1st we moved into our own apartment via help through a program here. I wasn't even here 30 days before my case manager was pressing about employment and how little progress I'm making. Every home visit she asks me if I've applied to Walmart, I'm qualified to do more. I had an interview Wednesday for a substitute secretary for the public school system here. She told me that wasn't good enough, it wouldn't pay the bills (pays $11 per hr) and I only went to the interview just to say that I went to one. And that I'd be terminated from the program on Monday. The same day she told me that, I was offered the position. I'm pissed off because inspite of my efforts, she's still not satisfied....she was very rude and belittling.

Searching for a job...
Hello everyone. This is a ADVIce for anyone whom may be struggling to find a job as their career or just a random job. I, myself, we're working at Rite Aid in 2013. On July 2016, (almost 2 and 1/2 years of working there, as a cashier) got fired, due to "violating rite aid policy". I know for myself, and everyone else, I've never been late to work, or called out. I've never STEAL anything. I'm always going to work, do what I have to do and leave. So, on July 22nd, 2016 at 1030am, I got called to the office and my boss told me that I'm fired (along with his boss, and others), simply because I supposedly "stole" something. I was stocked to death. I've never do something like that. I felt like it was a threatened, because he's Arabic or he didn't like me or someone just set me up. Anyways, after that, it was hard for me to search a job. Everyday, I seat on my bed or sofa, went on to indeed.com and went on to search the job, whether it was Retail, Medical Office Assistant, or Office Assistant. As days goes by, times goes by, months goes by, been going to interviews, 1-3 times a months, all I kept hearing was "we will send your resume to Human Resources, and they'll contact you within 2 weeks or 2-3 days." I kept hearing it a lot often. Nothing happened. I really wanted to give up on it. But I said you know what, let me keep on doing what I have to do. Maybe, I can asked a friend and see if their job are hiring. So, on Feb 6th, I told a friend and see if his job is hiring, his job was working in a Supermarket, in the meat department. I kind of didn't want to work there, but I needed money. I sent my resume to the store mangers' boss and he called me the next day & set up an interview for me on Feb 8th. I went. The store manager gave me an application to filled out. I did it. He said bring it back next day, around the same time. I did. He said "congrats, you're hired". I was super excited. The manager gave me about 4-5 pages to filled out (because it's unions paper, bank papers, etc). He told me to dropped the paper before 5 (because he's leaving). So, I said okay, no problem. I went home, so happy and dancing because I have the job, as a cashier. I went back and dropped my papers off and he made photocopied of my I.D and social, and checked my papers and said great!. Then told me, come in on Saturday (11th) at 11am.
I thankfully god and everyone who had helped me, and stood by my side through the rough times.
So, enough of me, lol. If anyone looking for a job, just keep searching.. don't stop. It may be hard, but at least look for a job that quit isn't near your career, and have a little bit experience of something. Or asked a friend/family member who can helped you. I know how it feel, and know the struggle. Just keep your eyes open and do a good search on jobs.
Thanks! Have a great evening everyone!

curious

Help
I start working in Subway very soon and it is an easy job since I already have an experience in the work. Last week a girl gave me her number and she said that I have a great customer service and she need people to work with her in Starbucks since she is a supervisor. She said that they start $12 per hour. I wanted to work in Starbucks because that was my first option before I start working in Subway but I do not know anything about Starbucks + the owner of the Subway is really picky about everything I do and he gets mad easily. What should I do?

Why would someone who successfully completed 410 probation in Illinois still show up as a convicted felon on a background check
I was charged with felony possession of a controlled substance, and was offered 410 probation. Being that it was my first charge and I didn't want a felony conviction on my record I accepted the plea of guilty in order to obtain 410 probation and keep my record clean after the 2 years of probation was completed. Since that time i've been fired from many jobs and have been rejected after many interviews without an explanation as to why, until this evening. I was told by a potential employer this evening that they just received my background check in, but because I have a felony conviction my application has to be run through the h.r. office before I can be approved for hire. This has been very upsetting for myself and my family and has been placing a lot of strain on my relationship with my fiancée and I because I haven't been able to hold down any significant form of employment. If someone can please help me and send me in the right direction I would be forever greatful, I thought this was something that had been put behind me when in fact it been holding me back all this past year without my knowledge.

I got a job
Thank God I finally got a job after over two years. I applied for cashier and got hired as one of the managers. Praise God.
