I have been unemployed since May and actively looking for a job since then...I have received my last unemployment check (today) I have sent out several resumes, filled out many applications and had been on interviews...None of them have come through for me...well, today I went on an interview (secretary) and they want me back again tomorrow for a second interview!!! I pray they hire me....With Christmas just around the corner this would be the best early gift I could get...Please keep those finger crossed!!


Thank you everyone!

Do you only get unemployment for so long? what happens if you cannot get employment is there any thing else you can claim. Have been very lucky to have not been in that situation however I think it's all a little differant over here seems some people never work for years and still get unemployment. Good luck in your search for a new job.

We do get unemployment here but, only a certain amount. The employer pays unemployment insurance and the amount you receive depends on how my you have in your "bank" once that is gone...it's gone....Mine is now gone...I have never had such a hard time finding a job..

I was supposed to hear on the job I interviewed for yesterday..no call and, they did say they were calling me...told me that the interview went very well...blah, blah, blah! When I left from my second interview I was lead to believ that I had the job..they were going to be calling me back with the salary...well I haven't gotten a call back!! I have been looking for a job since May...there are not alot of jobs in my area right now for clerical but, I have even applied at wal-mart, cvs, etc....God I hope something comes up soon...I have been sooo depressed lately and the thought of getting this job just made me feel so much better and now....no call.

Oh man! I'm so sorry that they haven't called you. Did they give you a number to call to get in touch with them? I'll keep my fingers crossed for you... maybe they just got busy and they'll call you on Monday

Thanks...yes I called yesterday afternoon, I was told she was home with her sick son and they would get back to me later in the day....they didn't. And, I called this morning...she was there but on the phone so I left a message...still no call...I am thinking they will call Monday also...but, I just wish they hadn't told me they were going to call me yesterday...and then to not return my call...I will be 50 in March...I am not an "old" 50...and I don't look my age...but, I am still going to be 50...I hope to God this isn't why I am not getting hired....I am just so down right now..

Don't be down, yet. If her son was sick and she was off the day she meant to call you, she may have been catching up, and just did not have time to call, or want to deal with employment issues right then.

We will all have our fingers crossed that you get the call tomorrow.
