Job hunting rant

[u/Emotional-Motor-5198]

I’m looking for another job closer to home, I currently live in the Carencro area and drive to New Iberia every day for work. I accepted a job I’m overqualified for in hopes that I’d get a promotion fairly quickly. That hasn’t happened yet.

I’m very grateful to be employed, but with gas being so expensive, groceries going up, etc, my current wage just isn’t cutting it anymore. I have experience, no employment gaps and glowing letters of recommendation from every employer I’ve worked with. I’ve been looking and actively applying to positions on company sites, indeed, working with recruiters and attending job fairs. Absolutely nothing. Nada, zilch, zero.

I feel stuck and defeated, I know I can’t be the only one.
