Having trouble finding good employment opportunity.

I am a single mother of two. I have 2 degrees and a great work history. Since I have moved us to Lincoln Nebraska, it has been hard to find employment that fits our needs. We have never lived in this big of a city. Any advice on how to navigate this large sea of people and get noticed by an employer?

Hey Crystal, I’d love to invite you to our new professional profile (which is different from your current community profile) and quick apply feature –– which gives you closer access to recruiters who are actively looking to hire more women. These features helps you avoid the job application black hole by receiving updates on your application status in real-time and the option to message the company directly after submitting your profile (link below). Please let me know if you have any questions, best of luck with your search and please keep us posted! https://fairygodboss.com/users/job-profile?LAC=UGC&LAT=JSP

I do know it can be tough to get established in a new town, especially if it's big. Had you considered going out as a temp for a few jobs, just to test the waters and get some grocery money coming in? Quite a lot of places now are doing contract help as a way to try out employees for "fit" and then offering full employment if they work out. Also, if looks like there may be frequent job fairs, depending on what you want to do: https://www.google.com/search?q=job+fairs+lincoln+NE&oq=job+fairs+lincoln+NE&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i64l3.4564j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Best of good luck!
