Hi! I have a job interview for Target this thursday and I'm asking you guys to keep me in your prayers please :) This is my first serious interview and I want to be prepared for it. Whether I get this job or not and I want to be able to say that I did the best that I could. I leave it all in God's hand.

Thank you!

Unfortunately, I didnt get the job. God let me know a few months ago that I had to find a job and I've been looking for a while now (almost a year) but nothing happens. Honestly I feel bitter now, I know that what God has for me is better than what I think is good for me but I was really looking forward to work, to get out of the house, get a life, new acquaintances and now I don't know what to do, I don't know where to apply, I don't know how to feel and I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Nothing seems to work out for me lately, I've been suspended of college, it's been almost a year that I stay at home everyday not doing anything, don't have a job. I'm angry but mostly at myself. Please keep me in your prayers. I don't even know what to ask for specifically at that point but just keep me in your prayers. Thank you

Don't give up hope. I know how un-nerving it is to not get a job you interviewed for. I was looking for a job for longer than most people (years) and towards the end it seemed like no one would ever even want to hire me because I'd been out of work for so long and I would get really depressed, but God kept showing me this scripture:

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways submit to him,
and he will make your paths straight.
(Proverbs 3:5-6)

Even though I was afraid and felt like death would be the only thing that makes sense since no one would hire me, I tried my best to trust in the Lord and lo and behold about two weeks ago I not only got hired but I got the type of job that I had originally wanted. To me its a miracle. Just don't give up hope and try your best to trust God. He controls the whole universe. He promises not to leave us or forget about us and He is good on that promise. God bless.

I don't know your circumstances and certainly wish you had got the job.

There are things you can do to help yourself - look online for interview tips and other help of that sort. Find out about the company you want to join - even dress in a way that makes you feel confident (that even works for men!) but also in a way that will fit in with the people you want employment from.

A former friend of mine once found himself without work. He said to me that if he was working, he would be working 8 hours a day five days a week. He therefore decided to spend that amount of time each week looking for work. He found a job after a little while, but said to me before he went that the discipline of making himself get up and get on seemed to affect his attitude.

I don't if any of that would help you, but I pray for your life and your work, that you will find both and be confident in both. Amen.

will be praying for you. :) Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with God's people and members of God's household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone.

Hannah,hugs, hugs, hugs, hugs hugs,hugs. I am praying for you.This is the hardest part of staring over. You have made mistakes as we all have. forgive yourself, God has. He also believes in second chances, you have to believe you are worthy of another chance which of course you are. I am praying that God give you strength and direction. Keep looking for a job. When you are home with nothing to do, everything seems worse and it's hard to stay positive. God has a plan for you!

Thank you very much for all your advices and prayers, I keep them close to my heart. After a good scream, God put a peace in my heart and Proverbs 3:5-6 really helped. Thank you all. God Bless :)

I was let go from my job three weeks ago. It was a challenge for me being let go by a company I had worked for over 12 years. However, during intense time prayer and reflection I found I had come to place of overwhelming complacency in old job and that Lord was challenging me "cast out my nets to the side of the boat." I needed to "expand my tent" and see I have hidden abilities and talents that he wanted develop in me but could no longer due in the place I was. Within a week I had a new job paying more money that will test the limits of my abilities. I pray the Lord will place where His glory can shine through you and also supply all your needs.

I know it's been a while but I wanted to thank you for your prayers. I finally got a job today and it's unreal. Now I'm just really scared because I want to give my best and I don't know if it will be enough but God provided for me and He won't stop now. So thank you again!

It's probably unnecessary now since it has been so long but I just wanted to thank you again for your prayers, I found a job near the end of october and I still have it although I don't feel like I belong there but God has a plan for me so I'm thankful.
