I'm freaking losing it - how do you find work? (hexbear.net)

Got a string of rejections for my applications on Indeed.

I live in the US and I haven't landed an interview since last year.

I'm working on my resume now, but if there are any tips on where to look, or services that might help connect me with work, I'm all ears.

I've got a graduate education and I'm considering omitting that information as I apply to entry level positions. What kind of sick joke is it that someone can be overqualified for a job?

Also if you want to commiserate and say work sucks in different ways, that's cool too.

I wish I knew. In the same boat... DataAnnotation is working out alright for me, and I'm doing the "sweepstakes farming" gig while looking for other ways to make extra money. Can't elaborate on that though (the post I wrote was deleted).

Applying for full-time work has been nothing but endless rejection. There's too many people and not enough jobs. That or I'm not good enough for work anymore 🙃
