Don't feel bad, I know how you feel! I've spent the last 3 years working and training as a PC Support Technician and I've been out of work since July. I was the last person cut from the budget and I felt pretty bad.

I've had 1 interview where I was told you are qualified, but we like someone else.

I had one interview which went great. They set up a second one and the night before, they called to tell me not to come to see them because they hired someone they liked better.

I've had 3 Tech jobs I applied for go sour, because The State Of Vermont has put a freeze on hiring.

I had another interview set up as a Tech for the local mental health org. and they canceled it the morning before it, they are funded by the State, too!

I've gotten lots of e-mails telling me "You are certainly qualified, but we are hiring another, good luck!".

We are only two of many thousands facing the same things. We are not alone!

Hang in there, the government says it will send us help!
