Job Fair

I attended my first job fair since college today. There was only one employer there that I thought I might have a chance with - it was with a kitchen cabinet refinisher - the ones that only change the cabinet covers. The room was full of companies that seemed to have jobs - but there were so many people there they were parking on the street. I also started working with Right Management this week. They are an outplacement company that my company made available to me for one month. I figure I need to brush up my resume since the only feedback I ever get is "you are not qualified". They are also supposed to help you search more strategically. Another day and another day closer to that silver lining.

  1. Best wishes on your job search - I am sure you were in good company at the job fair, so many people are looking for work. I know four people who have just recently lost their jobs.

    1. It was quite overwhelming how many were there.
