Entry level jobs are harder to find now a days. How does one find an entry level job with no experience. Even after offering to volunteer. Begging does not work either or maybe because I am an American.

Deo, I don't believe it is because you are an American. I am 54 and looking for a career change. I have had my own business as a Remedial therapist for the past 12 years. I have been P&C president at my kids school, I have run major fundraising events, I was an execuative Director in Canada working in the Community Services sector, I have volunteered with St. Vinnies for two and a half years in their retail store in Brisbane attempting to increase my retail skills. I have recently volunteered to assist the Redcliffe Senior Computer Club in hopes of toning up admin and computer skills, even tho I am not a senior. I have applied for countless positions, with no response. I believe that looking for work has become a full time job in itself. Just hang in there and stay positive,someone is looking for you.
