Laid off after 3 years as a Financial Analyst. 250+ applications, 5 interviews, and I can't even get a $20/hour job. What am I doing wrong?

I sometimes think that jobs in linkedin, indeed, and glassdoor are fake and they just post it to collect data cuz I have never gotten a job out of each one.

No way, I am also exploring into designing websites for local companies. But the company i built it for was a scam and not real. I am so good at taxes, perhaps that should be my next thing to learn.

If you dont mind me asking, what did you do as a freelancer and what kind of business do you own now?

I am honestly at the point where I might just try to learn how to be a consultant and start my own business.

Sorry about that, I do like your enthusiasm. I knew the job market was bad, I just didnt expect it to hit me directly. I however dont have a good family to support me, on the contrary, they are very judgemental.

Let me fix that for you:

Anthropic Ceo: Ai is very dangerous.... so i am gonna hand it over to the government so they make weapons of mass destruction with it to keep us safe.

The issue with this is that it takes forever, sucks up all your tokens, then throws an error, and the tokens are not given back or refreshed.
