I am letting out more frustration! Spoke to a career coach at the women's center yesterday and that will be my last time! Lack of job advice nothing new, heard the same bs in 08 and 2010 when I got my degree thinking it's 2015 there should be something different and unique for job advice.
I told her the usual like I told others I am financially strap for everything until I get a full time job somewhere then finishing up my BS and getting more education somewhere will be looked at down the road. Right now, I need money I need to make more money, I am not here to shovel dirt I'm here to find a pot of gold! We talked about my little experience in IT working at a college been there a year now. I said I don't find myself going into another field and completely forget about what I was taught at my current to me, that is a complete utter shame, embarrassment, and a slap in my face.
I feel regardless if I have the experience or not, I have a right to want a job with better pay within reason. My patience ran out long ago on waiting have applied 12 times to the college district and was turned down on jobs, I am in the system should be able to transfer easy but that isn't true anymore. I work with two different recruiters seeing if they can find me full time where a company can train me. I thought I had the job with one employer but they turned me down because I don't have sales experience but do have the technical background. I am done working part time time for me to move on I told the career coach I have my own personal and career goals that I'd like to achieve. I am not seeking a 2nd job, did have one for 10 days and the contract was over. My main goals are full time and move to another city with my boyfriend -
charity starts with me is how I am looking at it now. I'd like to have a social life again!
Told the coach taking classes somewhere, working right now, and job hunting is a combination of 3 full time jobs. I am still mentally exhausted/stressed, depressed, etc like I got enough to concentrate on some freakin classes?!
I've served my time volunteering, again, charity starts with me already "took cared of others" time to take care of me! Anyway, I am still applying to other IT low level (supposedly) jobs that I feel are closely matched to what I am doing now and still get told I don't have enough experience. It's a complete utter embarrassment, shame, etc to go to another field where my degree will be meaningless.
I just need a job that is gonna be the right decision for me and what's best for my financial needs that's my main focus should be a lot of people's focus depending on their situations. I am not here to listen to crap from these career coaches give me a damn direction where I can transition into full time asap! I told my recruiters I need a direct hire so I can move into the full time smoothly so tired of waiting.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
