My application was rejected

Again I had another failure. I applied for an online job. I passed all the certifications and exams. I waited for their answer. My application was rejected, but they didn't give a reason. I think they had too many applications. It was a translation job. I think it wasn't very difficult. I have to accept this. I wonder why it's so hard to find an online job. I don't feel anxious or sad. I feel angry because I feel like I don't deserve to have anything if I don't work. My income is very low and I can't afford anything. I tried to sell some things and couldn't find anyone interested. Everything seems stuck. At least I will try to be more active here.

Try for something more simple. A couple of members here make their living doing frelance writing on sites like text broker. You can give that a try.

@dya80dya It was a thought. I know sites like upwork do work outside of the U.S. but they take ten percent of your pay. Again, it's worth looking into.

@dya80dya I was a member on Textbroker for three years.

Unfortunately, I live in Europe and many writing sites aren't available here. This is what I found on the text broker site: To become an author with Textbroker: You are a United States Citizen currently living in the US.

It was a bit painful because I had hopes that I finally found something. But I didn't want to have huge hopes.

Getting an online job is very difficult these days. If you can go out you can try a job in the office.

My suggestion would be write down your strengths and concentrate on those . If you think taking a few courses would help in those strengths do for it. And keeping trying . It is a tough world and earning is tough . I have had once applied 3600 job applications before I got a job . And for online opportunities I belive close to 500 were sent before I could hit something solid. Mean time you could try simple blogging , guestposting and other freelance activities you like. Maybe slowly things will work for you. Best of luck!

I am very sorry to hear about that. I can only advise you to keep looking for work because someone will notice you and hire you eventually. For the time being, failure will only make or break you; it is up to you to decide which path to take. I hope that in the coming days, you will receive some good news that will benefit you.

I am sorry your application was denied. I hope that you are able to find something soon. If your country is anything like ours, everything is way more expensive these days. Higher taxes, insurance, gas, food, rent. I am extremely careful of what we buy nowadays.
