Falling into despair

toomanytoolittle SG

I am getting desperate. I just graduated from poly yet it has been one.2 months of job seeking, yet I am still jobless. Is something wrong with me? I have sent dozens of application and have not even heard one reply. Very frustrating and dissappointing to know that no one wants to hire me. Am I so lousy that no one wants me? I am young, willing, capable and yet...

I know some of you will say not to give up but if I can't even secure an interview for the past one month, what makes it so sure I will get one subsequently. I am not asking a lot but instead it is those companies that are asking too much. So many of them preferss minimum 2 years experience. For god sake, I am a fresh graduate but I am not stupid or slow.WHy dun they just give us a chance.

Everyday I stay at home and not even willing to go out anymore.

Ah Cek SG

which course u graduated from?

some companies say fresh graduates are welcome to apply bcos they can only pay little. they may not be able to pay more for experienced ones.

Yo pal....
you look for job for two months without result and you depress?
Me jobless for 2yrs...should I go jump?

No one wants you doesn't mean you are lousy..
No one wants yuo cause you are probably too good and can't afford to employ you.

actually its quite hard to find a job if u dun have experience. If no choice, might as well u go do advanced studies, while taking part time jobs for the experience?

I took 6 months before I landed on my 1st job. Dozens of resumes in today's climate is not enough. You need hundreds. For every one of yourself, there are an equal couple hundreds out there looking for jobs as well.

Best to go recruitment agency for a contract job if you really desperate. The best jobs available on the market usually are referred through by friends and not through any ads.
