I just hope that we are not on the verge of GFC2 - there has been enough hardship already.
I'm very socially awkward and terrible with interviews, so I really emphasize my qualifications and skills. That seems to be a good move for people on the spectrum imo.
I used to go through temp agencies to get contracts, so I've got a long list of short-term jobs in the government. It's good and bad. Good: I have a lot of experience in various areas. Bad: people think I actually enjoy working temp work, when that's actually not the case.
Been looking for work for about four months now.
Average job interviews per month: 1
Average jobs gotten per month: 0
Sadly I'm not in a position where I can choose whether I'd like to work or not. If boyfriend gets a job before me he says I don't have to work for a little while if I don't want to/can't. If he gets this apprenticeship his mom found then I'll probably take him up on the offer while I pursue my AS diagnosis.
Been looking for 4 years. NOTHING. I hate Fresno. They only want experienced people here. It sucks.
I've been searching since October of last year. Well... not really, because I've basically given up this time. I've had too many jobs to count, and I can't stand working with most people, with all of their silly 'office politics', gossip, back-stabbing - ugh! Being a regular in full-time work is just too frustrating, even when things go the way they are meant to (which is hardly ever). :banghead:
