job hunting

I’ve been in my current job for over a year now and it was my intention that it was just going to be a stepping stone if you like into a job that I really wanted to do and that would suit me. For the last six months I have been looking for another job and at the beginning I really thought it would be easy, “its easier to get a job if you are in a job”….

Its now six months on and I’m actually seeing that it’s not at all easy, yeah, I’ve had a fair few interviews but nothing has come of them, am wondering how long I will be in this job.
I don’t really know what job role that I would like, I’m qualified in childcare and I’ve been told the qualification that I have is now obsolete and I would have to go back to college, but I don’t want to do childcare anymore now either.

My friends tell me that I would be good in a carer role but I don’t think that I could cope with the personal aspect of care.
I’d like a steady 9-5 job, five days a week with a good rate of pay but to do that it seems that it is all administration work and I’m just not qualified for that.

Just keeping plodding on and pushing doors to see if they open.

devastation

I had my interview for McDonald’s today, I thought I had it, I really and honestly thought I had it, he said he’d call this afternoon and there been no call.

I was pinning all my hopes on this job, it was gonna get us off jobseekers and everything.

Now i just feel like a failure and worthless, I cant even get a crummy Mcdonalds job

Why is life so unfair

*EDIT*

WHOOP I GOT THE JOB AFTER ALL

The working Mum

I’ve found something to fill my days whilst son is at school;  its called applying for any job that I can find!

So far I have got two interviews coming up one for Macdonald’s and  one for royal mail, now I’d much prefer to work at royal mail as I heard the pay is very good there but alas its only a Christmas temp job and Macdonald’s is a permanent job, so I need to find a smart outfit for my interviews and also need to get to the next town over to pick up a replacement birth certificate as a form of ID for myself.

Letter

I received a letter today, from Montessori nursery, the place where I’d had the job interview.

Didn’t get the job, I kinda knew that already as they didnt phone me….

They say they will keep me on file for six months, we shall see.

Its all experience anyhow!
