Unemployment Benefits
To qualify for unemployment benefits, you must be out of work through no fault of your own and be actively looking for a job. File for benefits as soon as you lose your job so you don’t miss out on any money…..To speed up the process, most states recommend that people file online rather than over the phone or in person. Use this unemployment benefits map for links to your state agency and its online claim form. Your state’s unemployment-benefits Web page will also provide details on how to apply for benefits, how to file an appeal and what you need to do to maintain your eligibility. More on Unemployment Benefits.
Resume
Depending on the job, it may be to your advantage to have a resume. You have to sell yourself and make a good impression to get noticed. There is lots of information on making a good resume on the internet. Just do a search on “resume”
