<prompt> Human: Basically title, Im 23yo I was let go last may from a job due to performance issues. Now Im struggling to find an stable job, I will be working at a summer camp as a baseball coach and will make a total of 2,490 by the end of summer. I dont have any savings as I have use them to pay off cellphone bills, credit cards and to help with rent. I have terrible credit due to being laid off early last year and was not able to pay off my phone lease and I got sent to collections. According to credit karma Im sitting at 495 with TransUnion and 553 with Equifax. I want to build my credit back up since I will like to be able to move out of my parents home sometime in the near future. The car I want to buyfinance is listed at 2,999 my parents are willing to loan me 4,000 in order to have a car for additional income. Im not sure if my best bet is to buy the car in cash at once or finance it with half of the price as down payment in order to rebuild my credit. Thank you in advance for any tipsadvise Assistant: I would not recommend buying a car just for the purpose of working for Uber. At 23, it might be more beneficial for you to use the money to pick up a technical skill. Purchasing a used vehicle to do Uber would essentially de-grade your car at an accelerated rate all puns intended. Additionally, working Uber does not improve your credit in anyways. If the intention is to rebuild credit, you should get a used vehicle that you can finance and pay off loan over time to slowly re-establish your credit. Additionally, the vehicle could be use for reliable transportation to a more financially consistent job.My 2 Human: Im a college grad, majored computer science, but I have struggled since graduation on finding a job in the field since I didnt take internships because I was working while in school, and I have no experience, the Uber part is to help me manage my cost of living basicallyAssistant: Where are you located? Are you willing to re-locate? There are tons of jobs in that field without internships available. Hell, at my job we hire people with no technical experience and give them 60kyear after a 3-month long trial period. The conversion to permanent percentage is relatively high, like around 8037;. I work in a data center, btw.Human: Im located in MD, I would be willing to relocate but I again I always struggled with getting a second interview  <response>: Then youre close to Virginia, the data-center capital of the U.S. Look for job postings from Amazon, Microsoft, Iron Mountain, Leaseweb, etc. to name a few. Practice your interview skills on friends and family. Hell, maybe take a community college course on public speaking just so you can get some direction on how not to look like an idiot no, Im not calling you an idiot.A degree in Computer Science will go a LONG way with any of those companies I listed.
