I need help.
Hello,
I am truly hoping someone can help me. I have been applying to jobs for over two years now. My friend recently got a new job, and it took her three years. She still had to know someone to get an interview. It really feels like you HAVE TO know someone to get a job nowadays. I have applied to many jobs on Indeed, LinkedIn (using the lazy girl way), and many other websites. I have reached out to different people, asked for help finding a job, talked to job recruiters, and joined facebook groups. I have updated/changed my resume many times now. I have only had maybe 4 interviews. I either get a rejection email (sometimes immediately after applying) or never hear back at all. I applied for many different jobs. I am not a salesperson, so those are the only jobs I do not apply to. I HATE my current job. I am already "quite quiting." My boss just literally wants me to read his mind and do his job for him or make sure he does his job. It is so draining every single day. He refuses to let us work from home because no one would be able to "cover" for him since he is never at work. If someone else works from home, he ALWAYS makes commitments about how they aren't working if they work from home. I am trying to pass my CPC (medical coding exam) or CRC (medical coding risk adjuster) exams. I have already gone back to school for medical coding. I do not want to go back to school again or pay for another course. I don't make a lot of money right now or have a lot of money saved up either. I would love to have a remote job. I just do not know what else to do.
I realized I should maybe clarify my question and give some more background. I am struggling with getting a response back to any job I apply for. I have applied to remote, not remote, part-time, full-time, customer service/support, check in-clerk, call center, data entry, jobs that offer less than what I make now and etc. I do not like customer service roles, and I hate having to talk on the phone all the time. I have tried coming up with a side hustle I can do, so I could do that until I pass my exam. I'm not sure what I could really do or what I would have time for. Hopefully, after I pass my exam, that will help me get a remote job. I have a partner and a son. I currently work full time as a mortgage processor. My partner has evening work events for his current job role. So, in the evenings, I usually care for our son. I am friends with co-workers on Instagram and Facebook. I never really get on Facebook. I do have a tiktok, I just started using. I just want a better job, have more work-life balance, and start making a livable wage. (I am currently borrowing my mom's car.)
