A very slow week in the job market. . . . at least for me

This was one of the slowest weeks of my recent job search.  I had 2 hits and both came from a Craigslist ad I put on the Philly listing.  I’ve lowered my salary requirements and while it did increase views on CareerBuilder it did nothing on Monster.  In fact I lowered my requirement by 15K on Monster and I only had one additional hit.  I’m starting to get nervous that my skill set is more than lacking for today’s job market.

A part time job is assured as the money is almost gone.  I continue to look at alternatives.  This weekend should be nice because my daughter is home from college

I fear that until the economic crisis has subsided a bit nothing good will be flowing in the job market.  I believe that we won’t settle down until after the election!  So at least 3 more weeks of this chaos.
