Request Details
Hello, I am Anna, you might seen me before,

I will try to get straight to the point,
I lost my job, I spoke with few people in transgender WhatsApp group, and I used all the advice that I could, but not much success, I was on sick leave for 1.5 months due to health and suicidal thoughts, and then, I lost my job, and I had not much success on interviews, I spoke with Karoline, Ray and few other people, I went on networking events, I tried to find a temporary job, not much success at all,

I tried to do 'own' business but it didn't fly and I only ended up eating the last bits, and almost got myself in big trouble (Ray is aware of situation) so I have to use food banks now


I'll do my best to get out of this, but at the moment, I would appreciate some help

I created 12 CVs, I had 60-70 interviews, in person and on the phone

but no positive result, I asked for referrals, but none of the given advice worked so far

I also tried to write before to write before here in a feedback form, but didn't receive any answer :(
