     I am searching a job for a last six months… Its makes me getting depress…
    if somebody have a similar or same in situation, please let me know

      ive been searching job since my third undergrad year til the spring i graduated.
      6 months of job search isnt really rare. i bet i can name 10 people with longer
      job search experience less than 30 seconds.

      i think you should check every little bitty of yourself before sending a resume,
      coverletter and etc… (basically anything)

      For instance;
      “Its makes me getting depress…” —> It makes me depressed.

      These types of mistakes will not be accepted.
      I recommend you seeing a consultant.

      ㅤㄷㅚㅆ네요.
      전화 인터뷰 두번 미끄러지고..
      스태핑 회사에서 연락왔는데, 저도 컨설턴즈가 레쥬메 포맷을 바꾸라고 하더라구요.
      지난주에 세개 포지션을 소개해 준다고 하더니만, 아직까지 소식이 없네요.
      최근에 회사 옮긴 친구 얘기로는 아무리 상황이 좋아도 6개월 안에 옮기면 정말 빨리 옮긴거라 위로하더라구요.
      님이 특별한 경우가 아니니까 힘내세요.
      앞으로 올 인터뷰에 대비해서 열심히 준비하시라는 말밖에..
      사실 저도 살짝 우울해하고 있었답니다…

      원래 큰 행복이 오기전엔 최저바닥을 찍습니다. 헐 힘들어.. 더이상 못하겠다..하실때 조금만 더 열심히 하시면 정말 정말 행복할 날이 오실거예요.

      제가 직장잡을 때랑 지금이랑 상황이 많이 다를테니까 제 구직기간은 별로 도움이 안될것 같고..뉴스에서도 unemployment benefit연장한다 만다 할정도로 요새 6-13개월정도는 걸리나보더라구요. 그나마 다행인건 이제 실업율이 내려가기 시작하네요. 일리노이는 계속 9% 웃돌다가 이제 8%대인듯..

      How long did it take you to find a job ….:)

      ive been searching job—-I’ve been searching for a job

      6 months of job search isnt really rare.


      6 months is the average amount of time,

      i bet i can name 10 people with longer job search experience less than 30 seconds. —?????

      i think you should check every little bitty of yourself before sending a resume,
      coverletter and etc… (basically anything) ,—-

      every little bitty of yourself —-every little bit of yourself!

      you should pay close attention to grammar, punctuation, and typos before you submit your resume and/or cover letter…

      These types of mistakes will not be accepted…..you’re wrong….

      many people often makes these types of mistakes, but there is no excuse for it :)

      Keep an open mind, you will create a win-win situation that will land you a new job. god blessed you.!!!

        thanks for your comment on my online language here.
        but you srsly name one friggin employer that hires anyone with a resume
        that obviously states:

        “i came from non-english speaking country and i dunno anything about
        english syntax. but imma just apply for this job anyway because im applying
        for an engineering position.”

        yea i might be wrong,
        but when im interviewing anybody; i wont appreciate an effortless
        resume/coverletter author who doesnt even have a clue of what
        proof reading suppose to mean.

        im grateful for your comment here; but i just cant agree with you.

      Still don’t get it…you still looking for a job or what?…if you got the place to work….
      Yes, take a look at yourself!!!!. you’re the perfect example of this topic.

      I’m saying this is often not a critical issue, however, if you’re only dealing with a users like QA or marketing people. it’ll need more communication and written skills.

      • bk 24.***.86.12

        why dont you try to keep the focus on job preparation rather than
        bringing myself as a perfect example?

        you think its going to cause a positive impact on somebody who
        finished up their documentations within 3~4 hours thinking that
        most of the time these issues wont matter?

        i know what ur saying;
        career-related skills are the key factor of the success. i agree.
        but we had years of this stinking, depressed job market.
        there are too less jobs and there are too many qualified applicants.
        therefore i believe it is time for you to get used to the fact; every words,
        every facial expressions, every idea matters.

        FYI, i stated on the first comment that i looked for a job more than a year
        and im settled. thanks for asking though

      I don’t think anybody posted here so far has a good enough English skill to criticize others.
      Criticism is another way of showing off. You can always be indirect but deliver the message without making it sound like criticism or attack.

      윗분들 만큼이라도 했으면 좋겠네요…
      요즘들어 직장이나 프라이빗이나… 영어땜시 스트레스가…ㅠ,ㅠ

    • Chang 70.***.189.225

      BK…You think too much my friend :) …I’m just trying to see the bright side of it.
      don’t be afraid to make a mistakes. just because, we’ve all done it. personally, the only way you learn is to screw up, and then figure out how not to screw up again. more importantly, show off yours whatever it is. yes, the internet is a mean place, but you’re going to learn to filter the good criticism and get better from it.

      • bk 151.***.224.45

        understood. but still cannot agree.
        im not gonna sugarcoat any situation that has to do with unemployment.

        learning how to screw shit up for 6 months is ….. (censored).
