@PawelK @thor I just woke up after catching up on 2 days of missed sleep. In the US we have the Department of Labor which is mostly useful for unemployment but there are advisors who one can see after a few days and they do help.

I've never found a job by using those services. There are more jobs contracting to different companies and the government. Some of the contracts are out of the country but it's worth it for the pay. Might use different tools for different tasks but one should know how to effectively use any tool. Things have changed somewhat due to politics and a proper circle jerk of a cold war.
