Re: Still searching for a job
 

move to the top

When I decided I had to live in Indiana and needed a job, I moved here and lived in my van, and beat the bushes by going out and lookingfor a job.

I didn't post on IOW numerous times.

My tactic must have worked. I live in Indiana, and never got a job through IOW!

Amen

1 post is fine, but you've started numerous posts on the same subject.

It's great to network and get ideas, but really, the best way I've found is to come here and physically look. There's help wanted signs out all over the city, maybe not what you want, but there are jobs here.

"maybe not what you want" Thats the key phrase
This guy probably doesn't want to work at McDonalds, looking for a job in automotive industry
Sometimes you have to take a crappy job to survive, but I don't blame him for looking for something more fulfilling
No harm, no foul, IMHO, probably a bit embarassing for him to do this, hope he finds something good. Just skip the post if it bothers you

Re: Still searching for a job
 

However, " the best way I've found is to come here and physically look." is a good point too. I used to be a welder, I found the best reply when looking for a job was "show up tomorrow & we'll see what you can do" Half the time when they asked you to fill out an application, it went in their desk & stayed there.
SO glad I don't have to deal with these "online applications only" nowadays!!!

Times change and they always will. people are buying cars now on the internet. Ordering their parts over it etc.

Still some things don't. I've seen Danny Drinan posting for over a year he needs a fabricator and will pay well. Either not many people can do it. Or they're not reliable enough to keep it.

Even if Wood Shop, Or Welding wasn't your major, you should have taken it. Sad, Now days it isn't even offered. Every Metal shop left is advertising for help

I doubt if he's looking for a beginner
Maybe I should move to Hoosierland & take that job!
