I'm a 26 year old professional in the IT field.
I was recently laid off from a company that is going out of business.
I have been out of work for a few months now. I have tried everything; Resume professionaly done, job fairs, contacted consultants, signed up for every career finder website (applied for every job that fits my skills and criteria.
I went to two major job fairs and no one is looking for IT people. Consultant companies can't find anything.
I joined networking groups and computer clubs.
If I change my career to something other then technology then I am not going to make anything close to what I was making in this field. I can't make anything less because I have bills that I can't get rid of.
What do I do?
I'm lost, confused, etc. I don't know what to do. I need an idea.
