Still Unemployable?..

Time for an update on my "job search" table...

Not a great track record, I'm sure you'll agree... 9 interviews and not a sausage to show for it. On the bright side, most people say it takes typically 3 months to find a job when they're unemployed. I'm not completely struggling as I have a beautiful overdraft and parental backup if all goes the shape of the pear.

I really must pull the finger out and apply for more if I want a result. It's such a Catch-22 situation as I have next to no motivation.

Hi Duncan!

Finding a job is indeed difficult. I applied to HUNDREDS before I got the one I wanted. I took a temp job to keep me going in the mean time. Just apply for anything and everything that might interest you and you WILL find that job! There is so so so many IT jobs out there that I am sure the job for you is out there too:)!

Good luck!
