      I only apply to jobs I am willing to do whether experienced or not. For example, If I want to be a receptionist I will apply to be a a receptionist and not a janitor.
      That's what they do until THE ones they choose dont work out; then they call me.
      One of my issues and through experience or witnessing factors of being the last resort and the first to go. However I have never had a job that expired. I want to enhance not decline.

      Hi Linda, I'm applying all fast food restaurants. I have only one employment history under qualified on my job application. Will I get a call job interview from Hiring manager if they decide to see that I only have one employment history from 2014-2015 and gap between 4 year later 2018. So how do I get around this job interview without a resume if the hiring manager decide ask me this question. What kind of answer should I say to the Hiring Manager?

      Lisa Savage! Don't loose hope and keep trying if you still haven't landed your job expectation yet, but at the same time don't expect too much even if you are well qualified because over expectation is most highly qualified people's nightmare without knowing that there are bunch of highly qualified people same like you so be realistic and you'll make it.

    I have been experiencing growing frustration and discouragement in my search. I completed my Master’s program in I/O Psychology in 2016, but have not gotten a position in my field nor have I gotten one that will support my goals. I’ve only been able to get low-skill jobs that I can’t stand due to boredom, with ridiculously low wages. I was told the I/O field had opportunity, yet I always run into the issue of “you don’t have experience”
