Getting my foot in the door is proving to be difficult for me, hence going for a CCNA cert
The moral of this story is that you need to do whatever you can to get your foot in the door and whatever you can once there. If you want that promotion, you must show your ability to do that job before you get it. I hated a lot of the things I had to do to get where I'm am and didn't always know how it was going to benefit me in the end. But I did those things because that's what my work ethic demanded of me. Sometimes it feels like hard work will never pay off but somone, somewhere is watching.
I tried to use multiple job web sites to get contacts when I moved to Indiana. I kind of think they are a bunch of scammers. After jumping through flaming hoops at the first few web sites, all I got was referals to other websites. I have a EET, a journeymans cadr for Instrument and Control electrician, a business degree with banking, a business degree with management, a BA in theology, An MA in Psychology, 3 years in banking, 30 years in fortune 100 industry/manufacturing, including technical, sales and management, a staff Pastorate with crisis counseling and international missions experience. Other than sending me to other websites, the "employment professionals" have offered me part time dishwasher jobs, telemarketing jobs, assistant manager jobs at fast food joints, inventory clerk jobs counting out retail stores, and other jobs that high school drop outs would not take. I do however get LOTS more junk mail and spam email these days.
I know your pain... All too well. Sorry you are going through this.
Actually, I'm setting an appointment with a group that may be able to help me start my own business. Thinking very seriously about it.

Personal contacts is about the best way to get in the door and to the right people. I have many friends and associates doing the on line thing with little to no results.
This. My employer is looking for an electrical controls engineer. I'm pretty sure a degree is not required as long as you can prove your skills. If Leo is interested, I'll hook him up with the info if they haven't hired anybody yet.
I can understand employers demanding credit checks. You can get a pretty good insight to a person's character and level of personal responsibiltiy simply by looking at their credit report. Not always true but I'm sure it's true more often than not.
If I'm wanting to hire a guy for a $50k + job, do I want a guy who's got Aaron's Rent to Own on his credit report? Do I want a guy who has several missed or late payments? Why is he missing or late on payments? Is he not showing up for work regularly, thus not enough to pay his bills? Is his home life full or stress and drama due to being in debt, thus affecting his ability to do the job?
I've got a credit score of over 800. Run me.
What kind of business?
