YEs Deuce Dog I know what you mean about nepotism being everywhere but trust me I’ve lived in several places and its really worst in Miami. I’ve dealt with people who have absolutely no skills in their jobs but got it because they knew someone high up. I get scared of ending up in a hospital and being operated on by surgeon who got the job from favortism rather than skill. Yes its that bad trust me. You’re also right about the multitudes of people looking. For every job out there, there are somewhere between 5 and 10 people looking so it becomes tough to stand out. Some localities have more opportunnites than others so one will certainly have to move. I myself want to go to NYC but I want to have the job in hand first before going there because I don’t want to be paying NYC rent while I’m looking for who knows how long so I do my application through the internet and use the NYC address of a friend of mine up there. I’ve worked for free myself but that’s because I’m on disability and use it to build up my resume. I’ve also volunteered in places in the hopes of getting a job at that place eventually and it has worked out that way in some cases. So you may want to try volunteering in your spare time and make it known if it is a place you like that you want to work there and when something pops up you can make your transition.
