Same boat… even applied at Target for seasonal work prior to holidays and nothing…
10 years of military/healthcare service and 3 years of data analysis experience. Nothing. Anywhere. It’s getting kind of brutal just to survive now.
I would go back to school but my last university screwed me out of my GI Bill by submitting paperwork late and not telling me. Months later I get mail from VA saying I owe them a thousand dollars for a course I dropped after the cut off, even though I had dropped it in time. Without a job I had now way to pay it back, and now I’m pretty sure I can’t use what’s left.
Yeah I can't even imagine what the unemployment experience must be like in the US, not that I'd fully be able to explain in the first place. But the same struggles as in Canada and then some, especially with privatized healthcare/universities gouging you and everything else going on.
