Re: Unemployed ...

Eeeps, I'm sorry to hear it with 9 months!

I lost my job last autumn, but have had a temporary job since January. It will end next month and I'm concerned about finding something soon.

Tough times right now.

Re: Unemployed ...

Although my husband started a new job at the beginning of this month, he was unemployed for 18 months. The offer came in a week before benefits ran out

Good Luck to all of you who are lookings. Times are tough but there is something out there for you!!!

Re: Unemployed ...

I am unemployed for 2 months now. Another month to try my luck here before I have to leave Switzerland, not very positive looking for me it seems?
