Hi
I am not sure if this is the right place
I wanted to ask you all, the government say there's a skills shortage in childcare but I can not get a job in a centre, here in launceston, tasmania. It is rare a job comes up and when they have I do not get a fair look in, the closest was a phone interview where the lady gave me the job and said she would ring back in the next two weeks but three weeks later after an email and phone call from me, both unanswered i get an email from them saying i didn't get the job... which left me annoyed and confused as the previous phone call the interviewer gave me the job.... i am not naming them as that is not right even though they did the wrong thing already,they are quite well known with centres all around the country...
I have dropped off my resume, even though some of them threw my resume in the bin, but that's happened at other businesses too, tried gumtree and facebook with only being told about family day care and in home care. i do not want to do family day care, looking at in home care. Should i try putting an ad in the local newspaper?
I know some people have said to relocate but I do not want to , my friends and family are here and I am paying off a mortgage, which I would not get another house for the same price anywhere else....
All of this is making me think I have wasted my time doing the study for something I cant get a chance to do and think about giving up on the diploma as its really hard and unfair, i want to be in a job that makes me happy, i am treated fairly, respected and are helping others, unlike my current job where i am miserable and have been applying for another job for the past three years with no success......
rant over. thank you for reading.what should i do?
