Hello! I have 9 years total of healthcare experience and 5 years of that I was a Residential supervisor for a brain injury rehabilitation. I don’t have a degree only college credits I’m trying to obtain a Psychology degree. I’ve been applying to countless jobs on Indeed and barely get an call backs for an interview. I’d say out of the 50 jobs I applied for I only got 4 interviews. Is anyone else extremely frustrated with being out of work? :(

I'm so sorry that you're having trouble with this :( I'd say that now it's more important than ever to make sure you have the credentials/certifications to support your application. If it looks like you're not getting through the initial resume filter, maybe take some time to revamp your resume and cover letter? On the other hand, it only takes one really good interview to land you the job you want, so 4 interviews50 applications isn't really a bad rate.

I would like to get certified for Human Resources. I found a website that you can obtain a certificate for $250 which is a steal! It’s just a matter of having the money to obtain that! But thank you for the advice! :)

Hmmm, I'm wondering if it's an issue with your resume, since you're not getting many callbacks. Have you considered having it professionally optimized? I've done this in the past and it helped tremendously. You can usually find people on sites like Upwork who specialize in this type of thing.

I’ve always gotten the advice that when you want to switch jobs you should take interviews from places you’re not actually interested in, so you can understand your value in the market and have better negotiating power.

I’m doing that rn - took a couple interviews to gauge my skills, my market value, and see what I need to work on for interviews that I actually care about.

However, I feel really guilty about wasting their time and going all the way knowing I’ll just say no at the end. Wwyd?
