How can I get employeed fast when I have no job or college experince?
I'm 22 with no job experience or college what so ever. The main reason was because I was obese, and have very low self esteem, I didn't even bother. Now, I'm still obese and myself esteem has grown some but it's still too low. But I really need a job now. I'm so tired of having no money, and haven't had new clothes in years it's pathetic and depressing. So what can I do to get a job now? I have no experience in anything and right now my self-worth is plummeting ever second I'm without a job. What the heck do I put on a resume? What the heck do I wear? How do I get the confidence to actually market myself and get a job when I constantly feel like I have nothing to offer a company or anyone? Should I lie? Sorry for all the questions.
By the way I don't have a drivers license or a car.

Are you in a place where you can walk to work? If so, what businesses or places are nearby?
Do you live at home?
What have you been doing since high school?
(I help people job hunt and build their resumes, so stick with me.)

Is there a reason you can't or won't go outside?

I would get a check-up at your doctor first. Then, go to a public library and look up jobs in your area on the Internet. It will get you out of the house. Find a few that look interesting and apply for them.

No, I don't think so. I really don't like going outside being around people make me very uncomfortable and since I never had a job I guess I never thought I needed too or had a reason.

There are no online jobs.
Why have your parents allowed this to go on with you hiding in your room?

I can't do the doctor thing my parents nor I can afford that. So when I apply for jobs what do I put down for work history? I put NONE I never heard back from anyone.

Do your parents ever comment on this situation? Do they both work?
What do you do all day? Gaming? Eating? Sleeping?

There are health clinics in most areas that can help you. You can afford a computer and Internet access, so I believe you can go to a clinic. Do your parents work?

They don't really comment about my situation. I don't think they care as long as I don't bother them about money. My mother works everyday and my father only works on the weekends.
I mostly just sleep and eat now and go online. I guess I've just given up on myself after high school.

Ask your mom if she has health insurance and if you are covered.
What jobs do they have?

You're right.. I've been so lazy and hopeless it's no excuse I'm such a failure. I failed them both.

No one (except you!) said that!
Where did this attitude come from?
