Steps
步骤

Step 1 Decide if you need to get tough
1.是否需要严厉

Decide if you need to get tough. It’s normal for you to feel resentment, especially if they have been out of work for a while. The trick is to determine if you’re angry at the situation, or if you are justifiably annoyed because they are not doing enough to find a job. If it’s the latter, let them know it’s time to step up their game.
决定是否需要严厉sO9^BYgYo&。你感到怨恨是很正常的，尤其是如果对方已经失业一段时间;73XM#aMuFw44f~5P。应对这种情绪的方法就是确定一下自己是对这种状况感到愤怒，还是因为对方没有尽全力找工作而愤怒&V]@@,@T8c&mW,p。如果是后者，应该让他们知道是时候努力了tIb@t2uyf0uQWLc。

Step 2 Identify the problem
2.辨别问题

If your spouse is not getting many interviews, take a look at their resume. You may be able to beef it up by identifying strengths and skills they don’t know they have. If they are getting plenty of interviews but no job offers, stage some mock interviews with them to see if you can pinpoint what they’re doing wrong in the hot seat.
如果你的配偶面试机会不多，看一下他们的简历CkuI1GnXFa。指出他们自己没有意识到的长处和技能，或许可以让简历更出色T]KCYr;ha~z。如果他们进行了足够多的面试但是没有聘用通知，配合他们进行模拟面试，看一下能否指出他们面试时的问题i,4MeaBnY59。

Step 3 Help them network
3.帮助他们联系他人

Encourage them to call anybody and everybody they can think of who might have a job lead, and you do the same with your network of friends, family, and business associates.

Step 4 Encourage them to join groups
4.鼓励他们加入团体

Urge them to join professional associations and to find a job seekers group through your house of worship or community center. Besides widening their list of contacts, it will help combat the isolation that many unemployed workers feel.
鼓励他们通过礼拜会或社区中心加入职业联合会，寻找求职团体&AG(.f9GrqJg5g。这样不仅可以扩大交际圈，还可以打消许多失业者都会感到的孤独感=6E.lyUgP5u(*ZhX#6。

Step 5 Consider temp work
5.考虑临时工作

Suggest they take on some temp work. It’s a good way to stay busy, earn some money, make new contacts, and perhaps even land a full-time gig. Plus, it will take some pressure off your relationship if they’re once again contributing to the family coffers.
建议他们做一些临时工作&8zvud5D&vPKwR。这是保持忙碌，赚钱，建立新的关系的好方法，或许甚至可以帮助你找到一份全职工作1[3Dok_;L.wDnChwsl^。此外，这样可以让他们重新对家庭做出贡献，为你们的关系减轻一些压力2_jW[17k1)of^5ypXIl。

Step 6 Be patient
6.耐心

Be patient. It takes about six months to find a new job, so try not to get discouraged if the search at times seems fruitless.
耐心一点1kuP4B5_q]。找到一份新工作一般需要六个月的时间Qv7[iaG8WF。所以，如果求职过程看上去遥遥无期，不要沮丧,3qOtt&Z2N6M5ME&。
