Its now coming up to 6 months without any hint of a job. Leaving Lancaster last September, I though id be in a job by now, but that seems to be a far off dream. After sending off countless letters, emails and applications I seem to have come to a dead end! Yes I know I have my internship which I am grateful for, and cant really complain about because I know I am doing some good work and gaining some good experience....but i cant go on doing that for ever. Its got to the point now where I have not had one interview and to be honest, I am at a bit of a loss! What do I do now??
Well, most people are saying to carrying on what I have been doing, keep on plugging away looking for jobs and ‘something will eventually turn up’. Well I have been doing that now for 6 months, you could even say 10 months when I first started looking for jobs back in uni, and so far nothing has turned up. The most frustrating thing is that I cant even find a part time job in Worcester. It wouldn’t be so bad if I had a bit of money to spend, nothing like a bit of retail therapy, but i don’t!
The days that i’m back from London I spend in the monotony of home trawling through the internet in hope that the perfect job will come up. The routine of home life has become all very dull and boring. For someone who never really wanted a proper job, but to just coast through life trying to live the dream is now desperate for one!
So i decided to start this blog. Im not sure what I hope to achieve by putting down my thoughts and fears of being unemployed, but hopefully it will give me a bit of closure on the frustration im feeling at not being able to get out there in the real world. At 24 I did not think id be back at home wandering where my life was going, but then nothing turns out how you think it will, does it?
