I have been unemployed since November of 2016, but I have yet to find employment similar to my experience in white collar IT roles. I have taken many classes and have had my resume reviewed multiple times, though the inputs I receive are inconsistent and, sometimes contradictory. I've received suggestions for roles making 30% of what I should make ($70K), which isn't enough to survive on, even though I've drastically reduced expenses. I sometimes wait for days to hear back from people, because they're on vacation or they're doing a seminar or are otherwise busy. My biggest fear is that if I post this, I'll be black-balled out of a lot of good opportunities, but I must speak out. Simultaneously, PPWFC must get more funding if they are to serve people like me. I work hard and just want a GOOD job.
