They want the lazy, quick way out and to hire people with experience who know what they're doing. I get so pissed when I hear of people going from one job to another because so many others are struggling. And they aren't moving around because of getting laid off or let go. They quit those jobs and go to the other.
In the last year and half, I've sent out probably over 500 resumes. I apply for jobs almost daily, and definitely weekly. Sometimes there is just nothing I am qualified for. What have I done to change this? I've applied for financial aid. I will hopefully be starting school again in the fall for a career that will most likely never die. In the meantime, I will continue looking for a job. If I don't find one, I'll be really screwed. Thankfully I still live iwth my parents so I have that comfort zone, but what happens when their businesses flounder because unemployment stops and people can't afford to spend money or pay rent?

Did I send you a listing for some Masco jobs in marketing? If not, I can ask whether they've filled the positions already.
