I have an interview in an hour. I am sitting in the parking lot waiting to go in. I am pretty apathetic about everything so I am not sure how well this is going to go. But I am running out of options so I need to find a job soon.

Good luck on your interview. My son is also interviewing for a new job tomorrow.

It could have gone either way. But I am not optimistic.

Just wrote my thank you emails and asked if they had any other questions. I think my brain was still in vacation mode while I was there.

Got no response to my emails so I am pretty sure that isn’t a good sign. I am running out of jobs to apply for. I know there are jobs I applied for that I forgot to write down. There are some that I have been waiting months to hear back from. Job hunting sucks. I wish so many things weren’t up in the air. I hate uncertainty. If they don’t rule in my favor after the eeo investigation then I probably have a month left at my job.

Looking for a job can be very stressful. I hope you hear back soon and get an offer. Some companies are very fast and some are agonizingly slow. My son is back on the job market. It is much better now that he actually has a job than when he was unemployed, just out of school and looking. He had a f2f interview yesterday and they got back to him last evening to schedule a 2nd interview. It would be a big step up for his career.

I thought I didn’t really care about the interview but the more I think about it the more pissed off I get. I completely blew that interview and there are no do overs. I need to find a job but I am running out of options. I can’t even get Target to give me the time of day.

Don't beat up on yourself. You may not have "blown" the interview. It might have nothing to do with you. I once spent near a year job hunting, it was a long time ago but I have not forgotten what it was like. Summer is coming, I don't know your interests but there are quite a few seasonal jobs (at summer camps, campgrounds, town recreation departments, stores in tourist areas, restaurants etc. and that can be a way in). Also, look at your applications, make sure they are clear, easy to read, concise---if you suspect a particular employer of poor review, leave them out (if asked about the time off there, make it a voluntary, active reason----this actually turned out to be my problem once---
also don't be afraid to walk into places to ask about work (an old time method but sometimes worth it) or to try something you hadn't thought of (I once got a job with a large company that I'd no knowledge of...just followed "employment office" signs)--
Now I am retiring and I keep getting calls with job offers so...do hang in there. Consider, if you are able, getting some training (eg: certification---check on jobs that just require certificates -- EMT, others...)
