Job hunting

I hate job hunting. No matter what the position, I always read the description and feel like it's way beyond me. Once I'm actually there I see that, yes, I can do this. But there's that nagging doubt that I suspect keeps me from coming across as confident.

I don't know how to explain that I have skills and abilities that apply. I know I do, but I don't know how to tell people that. I don't like to feel like I'm bragging.

Then there's the matter of what jobs to apply for. Besides the policy analyst one, the only jobs I've come across that I am qualified for are ones that I don't want to do. We don't have enough finances to hold us for very long after graduation. Even if Rob goes back to Zellers after parental leave it is not a life-sustaining income. So do I apply for these jobs that leave my heart heavy just to make sure I have something, as poverty would make my heart even heavier? Or do I hold out and hope for something that matches the best of me?
