Hi!

I was laid off in early September due to restructuring and I know how dire the employment situation is in NZ currently. I haven’t been unemployed for long in comparison to most people going through it atm, but I’m just curious how many in here are in the same boat as me and how long have you been unemployed for? Also, how frequently are you applying for jobs?

I’ve just run out of funds and can’t get an appointment with WINZ until next week. I’m applying for jobs independently as well as through a recruitment agency, so I thought I’d have a job by now as it’s been 4 weeks of this; however, I’m starting to feel like that was incredibly naive of me.
