What would you do in a situation where its tough to get a job?

[Anonymous]

The current place I live in, is difficult to acquire a job, despite applying a tons of jobs on a job portal website (indeed) I do not get called for an interview by an employer. I am fairly well educated, though I do not have a degree but I studied till pre University and have experience in education and retail field. However I still can't get a job here been trying for a year.

They claim my state has 3.2% unemployment, but I've seen people with masters degrees in fields related to Computer Science, MIS, Electrical Engineering, etc. whom have years of experience in their field apply for over 1,000 jobs over like 12 month spans of time and interview for dozens of jobs before they finally landed a job. It's tough out there, either be persistent or go do manual labor.

I say the economy in '08, I started my own business and now it keeps me going

Indeed is designed to keep people out of work, try LinkedIn

You need the skills to pay the bills, as the saying goes. If you don't have the skills, you go out and learn them via a course. I have had to do it three times.
