I have worked temp jobs from the year 2000 to currently. And I am having a very hard time finding something I really like which is office work. Temp agency will not find me work where I can use my computer skills, they always put me in the customer service jobs. And permanent employers act like they dont want to hire me because of no stable work history. What can I do? I’ve tried everthing. From using famous coverletter and making my resume look professional. The Business School I went to helped me with the coverletters and resume set up. Now what can I do to find my Ideal job in life? I need some good advice on what to do next.

Keep trying. Really, that is the only advice I can offer you. I had the same problem, but mine was more because I bounced around from job to job due to being unhappy with them. Now, I am a office manager of a small company. I’ve been here a year, and I absolutely love it. I can come to work how I want, I’m allowed to be myself, and it’s just a great place to work.

You say, “I like office work” which is very general in nature. May I suggest that you get very specific in what it is about office work you like to do. What specific tasks do you excel in both enjoyment and ability. Define that and go after those tasks with abandon. Focus on the employers needs because, after all, you will be their employee and the employer is interested in making their business as successful as they can. The employer is in a competitive environment, help them to compete and win the “game.”
In an interview you also interview the employer, you may not want to work for them, ask them lots of questions. It shows you are intelligent and interested in the job.
