The job is only 20 hours a week and they were interviewing a huge number of applicants. I wasn't doing well with eye contact (but I tried!).

My employment situation feels beyond hopeless. I don't know what more to do...I regret going to college every single day of my life because it hasn't done me one bit of good.

Anyone else feel this way?

Big time. I tend to blather and fidget, but have gotten a couple of interviews this week. I t doesn't help being fired after a meltdown (the first in years!), either. I bet a good percentage of us are unemployed at this point. Just enough to survive, I guess.

I Fail before interview stage everytime. I would be on jobseekers allownce but thanks to going to university i'm not entitled to any. Interviews are hard. I tend to wandr off topic everytime. I ha a telephone Interview last week. That was hard as i'm not confident on talking to people on the phone at the best of times. Uneployment is hard, no routine, no hope an little support.
