Question: I've been  searching for a job for about 6 months and I'm still unemployed. Why? 

Answer: Don't take it personally.  The national average is 8 months between jobs, whether a person was terminated, laid off, or left on their own.  Some things to take inventory of are:  How many resumes have you sent out or job applications that you have filled out?  And of those, how many resulted in an interview?  That is a good indicator of how effective you are.  If the ratio is 5 - 8 interviews to 20 resumes/apps. filled out, then that is good.  Just keep plugging along.  If it is lower than that, then you need to look at what you are doing.  Another thing is to exhaust all your resources.  Network with friends and family.  That is the number one way to find a job.
