A Reason NOT To Hate on Jobs

[The-J]

Today, I'd take an employee who can actually see a project through to completion. My team lead just up and flaked out in the middle of a course design. It was taking up too much of his time and it is summer...really?

To get back on topic:

I understand your plight. You need to shake things up, you need to learn a skill employers need. You need to step outside the box and learn or do something different to get noticed.

Do you speak another language? Do you have any in high demand skills like programming or web design? Can you free-lance or contract?

Sue

I speak three languages (four, actually but the other language is useless), I'm a certified IT technician, network technician and almost a Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator. But nobody wants me for IT because I don't have any work experience.

My skills are not the problem. I used to fix computers in high school to make some dough. But so can many of my friends. It's not a useless skill but it's a common skill. I don't know but I'm a position where it feels as if I'm simply not qualified for skilled jobs. I'm hoping for a gig on the Geek Squad or something.

Unfortunately, I'm only in the US for another month, so the job hunt is going to have to wait at least six months. I'm a business major so while in Canada I'm going to take an unpaid internship since I can't work on a study permit.
