| I'm facing the same dilemma as some people here-- I've applied to like 20+ places but with no experience, no one will hire me. I guess Indy's a pretty tough field for jobs. And I want to get an internship, but I have no connections and I don't know where to start, so basically I'm stuck at home doing nothing but reading, reading, and reading some more.... |

| If you live in Michigan, apply at meijers. That's where I work. Trust me, they hire EVERYONE. Of course, you will be making minimum wage, but it just went up to like 6.08 for minors, 7.15 for everyone else. | |

| michigan has jobs. not good ones, but there are, in fact, jobs.
if you apply at mcdonalds, they will hire you. if you apply at arby's, they will hire you.
kroger is going through a MASSIVE hiring span right now because of the fact that farmer jack just went out of business, and so their business is up 30-40%, and they bought 17 of the old farmer jack stores. which all now need new people to work there.
anyways, there ARE some jobs, you just have to be willing to work in some place that isn't going to pay you $10/hour or more when you have no experience... | |

| You guys fail to realize that once you apply to a place you have to go back to talk to the manager. Just dropping off an application is almost never enough, but if you tell the manager you're interested, they'll usually schedule an interview for you. | |
