Having been in this situation I would advise people to take any job, and continue looking for your ideal and career job Employers are not impressed by someone who has been unemployed for any length of time They may think you are lazy or sick To some employers having a gap in your employment record is like having a criminal record If you have any kind of job you are used to working and you're gaining experience If you cannot find any job, ask as many relatives as you can is there anything you can do where they work If you write off to an employer on speculation for a job Don't worry if you do not hear back For any employee replying to these letters is a very boring task, it is time consuming and costs the business much money if your were in the employer's situation you would do the same as them and not reply to letters seeking employment If you do some online course like coding it sounds better in an interview than, "I'm just sitting at home doing nothing" Do not be disappointed if you do not get a job after an interview The reason might be nothing to do with you; maybe the job went to a relative or friend of someone who work there To get a job don't stop asking for a job; if you ask enough times someone should eventually give you a job Try not to lose confidence, and do things that build up your confidence Don't sit at home all day not speaking to anyone as you will blunt your communication skills You need to speak to people to sharpen your communication skills I wish everyone looking for a job theall the best Comment from : @garypadiham3221 |

I remember being retrenched during covid and I was jobless for 4 months Was the worst time of my life and I was also a fresh grad out of my job It was my first job and my first retrenchment lol But somehow, you will survive, it’s tough but keep trying and try to tailor your resume to certain fits Money always can earn back, so don’t worry too much, focus on getting what you can get Try to stay afloat, I was eating bread for one of my meals at some point plus I didn’t come from a silver spoon background haha Keep upgrading and be patient Life is short I also learnt a lot in my period of unemployment, asking myself to be more empathetic with myself and others Don’t discriminate those that are jobless instead, help and empower them!

$8000 debt for a young person fresh out of school is toughbrbrMy years of being unemployed due to a couple of mental health issues have landed me in debt of close to $150k And with a dwindling CPF balance, I now worry about keeping up my mortgage payments for my flat None of this helps with the recovery of my mental health It's like a vicious cycle I need to recover asap, so that I can work and earn an income to pay off my debts and keep a roof over my head Yet the added stress puts an unnecessary strain on the recovery timebrbrThey're young and getting rejection for jobs I'm old I can't imagine my rejection rate by the time I recover Stress now over recovery from my mental disorders Later stress again over finding employment, increasing my chances of relapsing Never ending story Comment from : @sleepy_dobe |

pre-covid19 when I was looking to transfer jobs with 5 years of experience under my belt, I had also applied for over 100 jobs and only 10 got back this is the reality of the job search process, covid19 or not be open, upskill so as to stand out from the crowd, and persevere get a friend to vet your resume if you have to all the best tough times dont last, tough people do Comment from : @bigmattwheel |
|
Don’t look for a job Look for an idea and set up your own business Comment from : @Mibour |
|
100 is not many, I applied more than this figure and still jobless We are not choossey but if you look at the employments, they are only shortlisted and not even asked you for an interview Even 4 interviews at the last stage, they still fail you Sometimes wonder how true is those jobs advertised in the media??? Comment from : @desmondteo8208 |
|
To that Media Executive lady, you are just too picky Count yourself fortunate if you get a job Still wanna match your pay expectation Comment from : @clemayk |
|
hopefully singapore doesn't have those jobs that only give interviews to meet company policy because of things like internal hiring or their employees recommending people in their network for the job posting before it reaches job street Comment from : @dt4654 |
|
Hmm Except for that accounting graduate, the rest seems to be at fault Whether being too picky, choosing a silly major / industry or having poor grades Comment from : @John_Smith_86 |
|
In bad times, it is better to have a job than no job, some $ rather than no $, to be healthy rather than ill, to have some food rather than no food on the table Be grateful for the things we do have, for the people in our lives and for the many blessings that are given to us which have been taken away from others Manage your expectations, lower your standards and focus more on your needs instead of your wants You will realise that you have a lot more than other people in this world Comment from : @Yasmin-jn8rb |
|
Is this a reflection of ourselves when profit margin is so important that we hire foreigners to replace our own and our action somehow affects our next generation When your self worth is questioned, headstrong my friend, headstrong Comment from : @sop953 |

A top tip for you all esp if you are young, start calling your class mates or people in your position or friends Meet up as a group virtually or otherwise (no need to be grand or over dinner spending money, can be a meeting in a void deck or someones house etc), get the networking, discuss new ideas to perhaps to be self employed to generate revenue, groups can also comfort you from doing stupid things, support your mental state (you would be surprise that alot of people are in your position), if your mental state is stable you will be able to think more constructively and positively esp with group support and discussion you will soon find a way out together Try it Comment from : @cvhawkeye6255 |

It is easy to get a part time job while hunting for the career you wanna take but some people are unable to humble themselves to do those "lowly part-time jobs" because of pride and fearful of judgement from peers and families zzzz Comment from : @andrewmclaren4253 |

In 2018 I was retrenched at age 27 I was broken up about it and in the meantime, had to live with my meagre savings meanwhile bills were piling up there was the WSQ 2 days course for job interview/resume skills that I went for that paid me $62/day to attend so I did that (if you're reading this & retrenched and have free time, I suggest you can try this type of course) I was surprised to see people who had degrees and masters that I don't have that still can't find a job after how many months me being young I was beating myself up over being retrenched at that age The lecturer told me not to let this bring me down and don't keep saying negative stuff out loud as it will only enforce the negative beliefs you already had It's true The course helped, I improved my interview skills and resume and got pocket money at the same time I applied about 150-170 jobs and finally landed the job I am in now even tho the field is completely different to any other admin job or the field I studied in and even though it's out of my comfort zone at first, I realised I really liked it a lot even tho I took a pay downgrade remain positive and good things will come to you in return We're very lucky to be in Singapore where our gov helps us a lot nowadays we just have to go online and find all the resources available good luck to everyone looking for job and keep your head up!
