The application form !
Then if I do manage to get it done I am either rejected or not contacted, then if I get an interview I clam up and I can't handle it, it's frustrating because I know sometimes I can do the job but you have to be judged first.
IDK I'm in a rut and I hate it !! Nobody seems to be helping me either  !! |
I don't want you to misunderstand of what I am about to say...but with this said...do you have organizations that help people with various disabilities? Doesn't mean you're necessarily disabled...but if you have problems with applications...at least here we have organizations that can help you with the job search based on your particular needs...maybe that's the way to go?
