I can’t get a job at 18 and it makes me feel like shit
Post Body

Everyone I know and am close to at this point has a job at this point as far as i’m aware, some of which are younger than I am (not by much, just a few months) and have more job experience than I do but after 60 applications and roughly 7 interviews out of those 60 applications over the last half a year I just feel kind of useless/hopeless. Am I really that undesirable to the work force? I feel like I’m stuck in some rut that I literally can’t get out of because I can’t force somebody to hire me, even today I just got an email saying I didn’t get the damn job I interviewed for yesterday. I don’t know what to do, any tips that aren’t going to be “here’s this service but there’s a fee” are appreciated, I’d turn to paid services for resume building and stuff but I’m flat broke and can’t afford it, I’d talk to my parents but i’m 99.99% sure they’d say I just need to keep applying instead of paying somebody to look at and help with my resume.

I don’t know, i’m just kind of depressed and feel way behind my peers, I don’t have a job, don’t have a car, never finished high school but I am working towards my GED (high school diploma equivalent)
