Please pray for me, I lost my job a year ago. I lost my long-term job in the downturn in 2008 and I was out of work for 27 months. I then got a job where I worked almost 6 years and was let go because the project was complete. I have been on seven job interviews within the last year but have not gotten any of the positions. I actually got emails from two of the companies telling me it was between me and one other person and they would let me know within 24 hours. Unfortunately they chose the other person each time. I have a certification that is much in demand but I can't seem to get hired. I pray about it every day throughout the day and evening and I'm trying to wait on God with no fear but like I said it's been over a year and I really want to go back to work. I know God will provide when the time is right but any prayers would be appreciated, thank you.

Lifted up in prayer.

Mind me asking what type of certifications you hold?

I have a PMP.

Try working/taking freelance jobs using your existing skill set.

I'm also out of job for a long time. I am usually being turned down because I'm apparently too old to be competitive at 35 years old.

Try this one, signing up and proposing to clients is completely free. You don't pay anything at all since the system automatically deduct charges from client payment when you complete a project/milestone...It's extremely convenient.

Upwork, the world's largest online workplace

You only have to do some marketing at first like cheap rates to get first clients, 5 star ratings which is very important and later, you can charge for higher rates. The major advantage is you work on your own time and you can bring your work anywhere with you (unless your client hires you as a permanent staff)

I’m sorry about your situation, friend. I know that it gets really discouraging and frustrating when a possible work opportunity slips right out of your hand. I’m praying for you, asking the Lord to lead you to the job He had planned for you. May He surround you with His comforting presence and provide for your every need in the days ahead.
