I highly suggest the book "Strengths Finder". You have to buy it because it has a code you use online to take a test and it tells you your five greatest strengths and suggests ways to build on them including possible careers. The premise is that we spend too much time on "self help" and improving on things that are not our fortes. It suggests that if we concentrate on what we naturally do well, and partner with others with different strengths, we can lead more productive lives. I did this as did both my sisters while we were on vacation over Labor Day and it was spot on. Very insightful.
Good luck with your job search!At least you know you have plenty of company
Things will get better. This too shall pass.
