If your in need of cash fast, don't be picky about a job -- walmart / sams / costco / hell even burger king + any other food place. There are lots of places hiring, just might not be what you want to do but times are rough

dude don't sell yourself short....if your handy get creative! degrees/cert's mean crap if you can be smart about it. Trust me I work in a workld of Ivy League, MBA degree certified (and certifiable ) peers and I don't have anything I barley made it out of highschool.

The difference I've always had high hopes. I will say at one point in my life I was DJing, coaching people on weight loss, doing computer work, about to drive a pedi cab, and just running out of my unemployment.

Now I run a $50 Million business for one of the largest software companies in the world.

Exactly right. Get a stop-gap job in the interim and continue to search for the job that you want. Best of luck to you.

If you have or know kids between the ages of 18-31 with a high school diploma, the Federal Aviation Association is taking applications for air traffic controller school.. Applicants should be in the right age group (under 31) and with some effort they could reach a salary of over $100,000 with benefits in about 3 years! You need only a high school diploma to apply and credit is given for college on the exam.

2) 2010 Census Jobs
The U.S. Census Bureau is recruiting temporary, part-time census takers for the 2010 Census. These short-term jobs offer good pay, flexible hours, paid training, and reimbursement for authorized work-related expenses, such as mileage incurred while conducting census work. Best of all, census takers work right in their own communities.
Census taker jobs are excellent for people who want to work part-time, those who are between jobs, or just about anyone who wants to earn extra money while performing an important service for their community.
Hundreds of thousands are needed for temporary jobs
Conducting the census is a huge undertaking. Hundreds of thousands of census takers are needed nationwide to help locate households and conduct brief personal interviews with residents. Most positions require a valid driver's license and use of a vehicle. However, use of public transportation may be authorized in certain areas.
Your community is counting on you
Every 10 years, the Census Bureau takes a snapshot of our population, determining how many people reside within the nation's borders, who they are, and where they live. The results help determine your representation in government, as well as how federal funds are spent in your community on things like roads, parks, housing, schools, and public safety. As a census taker, you'll play a vital role in making sure that everyone is counted.
Bilingual speakers are encouraged to apply
All census takers must be able to speak English, but people who have bilingual skills are needed in communities where a large number of residents primarily speak other languages. If you have the appropriate language skills and cultural knowledge to communicate well in your community, we encourage you to apply.
Apply today by contacting your Local Census Office or by calling 1-866-861-2010 . You can also log on to: http://2010.census.gov/2010censusjobs/ for more information.
How to Apply
It's easy to apply! Call your Local Census Office and schedule an appointment to take the employment test. Use our interactive map to find the local phone number of the nearest Local Census Office.
You may also call our toll-free Jobs Line at 1-866-861-2010. TTY users should call the Federal Relay Service at 1-800-877-8339.
Can I download the application forms online?
Yes. Visit the application materials section of this web site to download, fill out, and print an application form with instructions. Please bring your completed application, I-9 Form, and proper identification to your scheduled testing session. Do not mail your application or I-9 Form. Applications must be submitted in person, on the day of your employment test.
Will I be hired?
Most hiring will take place during the spring of 2010. Job offers depend on several factors, such as the availability of work in your community, test score, language skills, veterans' preference, and the number of hours you are available to work each week. Please understand that not every qualified applicant who takes the employment test and applies will be offered a census job. Job offers are made by the Local Census Office.
May I contact you via email?
No, we do not accept emails. Please use our interactive map to find the phone number for your Local Census Office, or call the toll-free Jobs Line listed above.
In addition to applying to be a census taker, are there other jobs I can apply for?

Mike: I feel your pain man: but like Specs said, don't be picky. Get something now, get picky as you go. Make the ends meet. It's easier to find a job, when you have one. Something always comes up better down the road. Looks like Langelo really came thru for this. (Wish I was 31 or younger: 32 just sucks)

I am looking as we speak because I left Florida. Good luck to you.
