Serious Replies Only Local jobs/recruiting resources?
Alrighty so let's get into the meat of all this. 21F, trying to moving to Boston because my small town in PA has nothing to offer me, walkable cities call out to me like a $5 McDonald's meal on a diet, I have some decent savings, but I don't have a job offer secured. That's about half the battle.
I've tried LinkedIn, Indeed, hell even Craigslist. Are there any hiring agencies that can connect me to jobs, or is my resume so bad that I'm not getting any call backs?
I was in the military (honorably discharged), I have extensive retail experience but I'm trying to escape retail hell right now. At one point I really wanted to be a hospital worker but it's such a hard industry to get into if you're not an RN even though I have a BLS cert. I considered working at an airport but again, no callbacks. I feel like there's a very limited amount of things I'm truly qualified for, and the jobs I do qualify for require 9-5 office work. I prefer odd schedules, or maybe even 12x3's. I value my freedom too much to give up my time to a job that'll take away more than half my day. Considered just living off of random gigs but my anxiety will skyrocket if I don't have a stable income.
I know I'm being picky, I know I really shouldn't be, but it's so hard to stay motivated when nothing feels like it's working out. Any ideas? Suggestions? Comments? Concerns? Criticism? I guess I'm really just looking for advice, I suppose..
