Employeers aren't knocking down my door but I get a bill every..

damn day. I have sent out 15 resumes and not one agency has even acknowledged that they recieved it. I have went to school for 7 years and all I get is a damn paper to decorate my wall.

2. I Hear You

BA, MA, MBA, JD. Now over two and a half years unemployed with well over 1000 rejection letters and emails collected.

If I were 18 again I would forego the degrees and learn a trade. The value of formal higher education is highly overrated in today's job market. And universities are profit centers with no real incentive to actually assist their graduates in finding suitable employment - much less accurately reporting their history of job placement.

4. Agencies usually don't

They're getting deluged with inquiries. It's a pain, but they usually won't contact folks unless they can potentially make money off them.

5. Every problem contains a gift?

Hang in there.

Believe that there's a reason for everything and that there's something for you to learn in this frustrating or disturbing period. I sincerely hope you have food to eat and a roof over your head. If so, just hang on to your self and try to take what comes in life.

By the way it's 'i-e except after-c' and 'gone to school', but I guess maybe this isn't the time for grammar or spell checks.

What's your degree in, if I may ask?

When I graduated (in the winter time), I got so many 'flush letters' before Christmas that I decorated them with red and green markers -- Christmas decorations and sayings -- and hung them outside my door.
