I feel like I’m grasping at thin air.

I’ve applied to countless jobs and I’m not even getting to the interview stage on anything. Even on things I feel I’m beyond qualified for. My background is in desktop support. If no one will hire me I thought of trying to wing it myself and put fliers up offering tech support.

I never finished college. So I don’t have any degree aside from highschool. My prospects are looking and feeling bleak.

What would you do if you were me Lemmy?

    Are you on LinkedIn? You should be if you’re not and make your profile strong. Add all of the key terms that a recruiter would be looking for for roles you’re targeting.

    Reach out to recruiters directly and message them about any opportunities they are aware of. Some may be contract but may lead to a perm gig.

    Good luck!
