  1. Hello,

    The websites you mentioned are the top choices for jobs around the nation. However, your best bet would be to check in your local newspaper or use whatever network you have in place right now. Ask friends, family, neighbors - talk to anyone and everyone you come across and casually mention your search for a job. You'll be surprised at what you find. Consider doing volunteer work too if you need to acquire some experience. Someone else suggested job agencies, those are excellent for getting a foot into really good companies. If you're interested in legitimate jobs you can do from home too, check out my blog and ebook: http://workathomelists.blogspot.com/

    Good luck! :)


  2. Another avenue you might try is getting your Resume to a local job placement company, headhunters are usually good. Don't know if you looked in the Sunday papers.  And going outside to ask is part of job search no matter how many turn downs there are.  Don't know if you live in the burbs, small town or big metro area, but might have to move if possible.  But in case you haven't been able to pay attention in the news about jobs they are hard to come by at this moment.  You didn't mention if you had any skill sets, and coming out of High School you would probably get a minimum wage to decent paying job.  Sorry and Good Luck.

  3. Why don't you try the networking jobsite: Jobirn.com?? Don't miss it!

  4. craigslist.org but without a college degree you're going to have a hard time.


  5. Don't start searching online right out of school. You're not going to find anything that pays well without having some kind of college degree or at least some college education.

    When I first got out of school, I went to the local temp agencies. On average, I made about $3 more per hour than the average high school graduate. In my area, that meant they were making between $7.75 to $8.50 per hour, where I was making $11.90 an hour as a STARTING wage. Being computer savvy will help you here. If you have one where you're at, try Express Personnel or A First Choice Staffing. They will give you aptitude tests, and then they'll find a job for you.

    The temp positions will usually always have the option to roll over to permanent employment after 3 months. If you decide you don't like the job, you simply tell the temp agency that you want a different job, and they'll complete your assignment there and move you somewhere else. See, as long as you work for the temp agency you're a free agent to contract for any business you want. You'll never be fired, and you never have to put down on record that you quit.

    Give it a try, see what you come up with.

  6. Depending on where you are, there may well be local job boards that are better than the national ones like Monster. If you are wondering why you aren't getting anywhere, employers do look closely at your grammar and spelling -- you'll have to do better than "so thats why pls dont advice this to me." Good luck!

  7. No one is going to give you anything.  Work is work - if you are unwilling to work at finding a job you will not find one.  Persistence, and dedication go a long way.  If your attitude is nothing will ever come your way nothing ever will.  Your potential employer probably sees this demeanor when you apply, or interview.

    Positive efforts will yield positive results OVER TIME.
