Do you live in a big city?  If so, you may be in luck!  There are TONS of colleges, tech schools that can get you a certificate/degree in less than a year.  In the mean time, you can get a job at 7-11 or work in a warehouse, something like that, a job that doesn't require you to be skilled.  Warehouse jobs can actually pay pretty good too, Also, the department of economic security for whatever state or city you live may be able to help you.  Arizona has a JOBS program, and can loan you the money to buy uniforms or tools or whatever so you can get on your feet.  The best of luck to you!

You've heard the saying "Give a man a fish he eats for a day but teach him how to fish he eats for a lifetime."  Same thing, do something that will reap longterm benefits.  Instead of feeding a homeless, which is nice, work with a group that teaches a skill like reading or employement skills.  There is so much need out there. Do something you enjoy. I enjoy animals so I volunteered at an animal shelter.  I walked dogs, socialized them, fed them, put available animals on petfinder.com and gave them love.

Apply any place that you can.  Try going to some employment agencies, they can usually find work for people pretty quickly.

I would suggest getting help at SCORE.  These are retired executives and business owners, you can ask if they have anyone with previous pub experience in whatever country you have chosen. You can set up a face to face appointment or get help via email. And it is a free service, they are all volunteers.\n\nGood Luck

It sounds like your stuck. The clue is that you want more education when you haven't found anything. That's a stall tactic. The problem is that after your done with this additional education your still stuck with finding a job except now your in more debt. You want the perfect job or situtation. That's ok but the important thing is to jump in. When I was unemployed a couple of years ago I kept looking for a new job, nothing happened and my self esteem went down the tubes making it hard to even get out of bed. My wife said go to a temp agency, any agency. I got an $8.00/hr job making copies. I was used to making $30/hr but I took it because it was better than zero. I loved making $64 a day, I was finally making money, my self esteem went up and I did finally find a new job that was more appropriate for me. So get going, do anything, just do something.

Call around to different places that have your line of work and ask them if you could volunteer for awhile.  A lot of companies like to hire people without experience in another company because then they can train them the way they want.  Good Luck!!!

Sadly, if there were quick easy money out there, we'd all be going for it.  There isn't, really.  Best thing to do, I think, is look for other folks who are in a similar situation and pick their brains.  And/or talk w/ someone in a temp agency to get a feeling for the needs in your community.  Might be able to do some non-internet based computer work (medical transcriptionist?), or possibly phone work... hope things work out for you!

you sound depressed which is a natural reaction to unemployment. Best to see your doctor and visit the job centre who may be helpful in finding you work related courses. Keep the faith, there is always a future

What?  How the heck did you receive a degree if you can't even type a correct sentence.  Try going back to College for a few English and Grammar classes.  Meanwhile consider a partime job at a major hotel chain such as the Hilton, or Sheraton.  That way you gain some expereicne until your English imporves.

Have you looked into filing for unemployment?  There are many misconceptions about when people are or are not eligible.  Even if you think you aren't, you might be eligible.\n\nYou could try a temporary agency.  There are many out there, and they require varying levels of experience and skills.\n\nYou could also try finding a casual labor job.  Construction contractors and farmers (as well as many other types of businesses) frequently hire casual labor on a temporary basis.  Because there is very little paperwork and few obligations for the employer, these positions are easy to get if you can find them.\n\nAlso, if you have things that are worth money that you don't absolutley HAVE to have, you could try selling them or getting a collateral loan from a pawn broker to tide you over until you find work.

Attitude is key- dont refer to yourself as jobless and old- you are experienced and ready to go!  Try the major job boards and www.craigslist.com  You can put a resume in there and search jobs.  If someone wants to talk with you just set a day time and use a friends phone.  Read the book Think and grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.  As far as loans, you are on your own with that one.\n\nGood luck- remember, whatever you believe, your mind can conceive- your mind moves in the direction of it's most dominant thoughts.

Freecycle sites are a place to start and also check with AARP in your town/city, call the colleges or tech institutes and see if they have programs that might help.  In my town the tech schools will help with supplies if you qualify and they have lots of different programs. \nCall the disability office and ask about retraining programs. They would like for you to get back in the work force.

I was that way too, I never found a job and now I work at a callcenter, LoL.  You could always start an online business of sorts, or open an ebay shop? Or find a weird place around town to work, like a dog groomer or here we have a pottery shop where you paint the pottery and they fire it for you...or maybe like a bowling alley or skating rink

You might want to call your local American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and ask them if there are any non-profit groups by you that help people get jobs. Or you go back to school (trade school, college or special training) to make yourself more employable. Good luck.
