I am so sick of not being able to find anything!! There are jobs that’s I’m applying for with no experience requirements in hopes that something will work out and everything keeps falling through. Any advice on staying motivated? Or any jobs that seem like a good idea to apply to?

It's easy to take it personally when you're getting radio silence, but the truth is, a lot of job postings are just for show (fake job postings). try focusing on skill-building or networking. Also, have you tried using tools like Jobsolv? They have an auto-apply feature that can increase your reach. Plus, their resume builder can help tailor your application. Unfortunately, it's only available for US and Canadian applicants. Alternatives are Rezi, Zety, and Jobscan for resume optimization. Good luck.

I haven’t tried that yet, no. Thank you so much!!

I have been in the same boat for almost a year now. Most open roles I've seen in social require you to either 1. Also do influencer, CRM, SEO, and more 2. Have years of experience in a niche vertical (social is social - verticals can be learned!) or 3. Are coordinator/associate level. All I can say is remember that almost everyone in our industry is in the same boat so just keep applying and eventually something will turn up.

That's me 4 years strong still nothing. It's so bad that I've become homeless.

Try to offer an ROI/Sales demand perspective. They always need it, and you just have to be creative and willing to try. Sales people never out of work. Hope it helps!
