Several great responses so far, but there are two additional points that I think are worth noting.

If you have previous work experience, you may want to take a look at what unemployment benefits you are eligible. It's certainly not a hand-out as you have paid into this system through your income tax. An additional benefit is the accountability that the unemployment system creates. In order to receive the unemployment benefits, you have to show that you are actively pursuing job opportunities. This helped a colleague of mine get her resume to absolutely every open opportunity and ended up with her landing a much higher paying job than she previously held.

A second piece of advice would be to set realistic expectations and understand that your next step isn't where you will be "stuck" for the rest of your life. In other words, if you had to choose between a minimum wage job and no job at all, the minimum wage job is the way to go. By creating an income stream and managing your time appropriately, you will be able to move on to bigger and better things in no time at all!

Feel free to reach out to discuss this further. I'd be happy to have a free call to help.
