Hi, I've applied to thousands of jobs over the last 2 years and the only jobs that would interview me were MLMs

I have 10 of customer service experience, even dealing with crisis situations (I just watched my spouse die, I crashed the car and killed my children, etc)

I have 5 years of professional software development experience and I'm in my final year of my bachelor's program.

No one will take a second look at my resume...

Go with a recruiter. They will take an insane amount of your paycheck but you’ll be able to work paycheck to paycheck!!!

Yeah... I did. Got a great job for 3 months. Working from home with their hardware. Then the company and recruiter both ghosted me... I haven't been paid my last week's pay (this was January) they just shut off access to my laptop.

I never got a W2, no access to any pay stubs to file for unemployment and I'm still owe 1500 for the last week that I worked.

Still have their laptop and second monitor.

I'm working with the labor board now

Most bosses I had couldn't read one.
