What degree? What experience do you have? What kind of job do you want?
I hope you don't write your resume like this

Associate's of Arts. I was a cashier at a movie theater. I'm really good at typing, computer related skills.

Landing a job is difficult, I have a degree in finance as well as a degree in accounting. It's been a challenge even with degrees from a university.

Yes, it is very frustrating. However, like everyone continues to tell me don't give up.

Very true, I'm usually a patient person but it's declining quickly. And thanks.

You never said what you were looking for. So the oil and gas business is out? There are plenty of jobs here, it sounds like you don't want one.

And a degree in psychology? Let's just say your sister does not have a degree. I'm sorry, but it's true. Unless she gets her masters, she better like working in retail.

I'm just looking for something in retail, customer service, data entry, entry level or something related. A job that doesn't require much job experience. I respect the women who are in that field, but I don't know anything about oil and gas!!

I don't appreciate your comment about my sister.
