JOB HUNTING IN 2025

It's been a while since I've written a blog post so I thought I'd write one about job hunting in 2025 and how things are going. I don't really read blogs anymore so I don't expect this to get many views even if it gets a couple that will be okay.

My last paid job was 2024 which was only 4 weeks and there was no job after it which was very annoying! but now that shop has closed and is becoming another supermarket but I still didn't get a job there either. Job hunting is hard, disheartening, frustrating and tedious I apply for what I can, which is most of the time the same jobs/companies because they still advertise even after I've applied so I go round in circles. I do sometimes apply for other jobs but I know I won't be considered because I have no experience but I don't know what else to apply for.

I don't understand why I haven't got a job, I have all the skills, I'm capable and I want to work! I have a learning disability which shouldn't be a issue but sometimes it feels like it is. I've tried so hard over the years if I hadn't of had the job in 2024 my last paid job was 2017! yes that long ago it's ridiculous. I  really do try my best so there's not much else I can do other than keep plodding on and hope something comes along soon.

At times it gets me down but I try to be positive and keep busy with things such as my volunteering and my other group I attend. I don't know what more I can do? it's 2025 and I can't even a job which is ridiculous! I don't get how people can just get a job just like that. When I was on jobseekers I always got picked on for everything, they didn't help me, they don't help people with disabilities and I had awful work coaches it was horrible and I hate that I STILL have to go to the jobcentre or as I call it the place of doom. I first went when I left school or college one of them and I am still going there now and I absolutely hate it.

People keep saying something will come along and that gets annoying! (sorry if you're one of them!) I get what you mean but after a while it gets tedious. The job market right now is pants! it's changed so much over the years most retail places are closed or are closing or they have self checkouts so don't need as many people. I've been on many courses which at the time it was something to do! and I did learn more skills and knowledge but they haven't got me job. Over the years with the previous help I've had they never really knew what to do or suggest so the appointments were always the same.

Anyway that's all for now
Thanks for reading.
