Me myself would not, it is not logical. I'm a capitalist and this is how I see it. If I don't get money for my work, I waste energy for my input. Energy lost that I have to refuel, by eating, paying for my living expenses, just things you have to pay. So I'm basically going in debt. And by not having money and not paying all those things, the people who would receive my money for those things, don't get money also, so they get the same problem of not having enough money, and the circle continues.
So no, not a good idea unless the knowledge is greater than the loss of energy. I hope I didn't made it too complicated.
The main purpose of getting a job is to earn money. Money that will be used to pay for monthly rents, utilities, pleasantries, food, etc.. If one has a stable source of money even without landing a job then most likely that money comes from his/her parents.
In the scenario above assuming that my parents have a decent and "stable" source of income and they don't mind sharing a portion of it to me, then I for one would choose a non-paying temporary job rather than to stay indoors doing absolutely nothing.
Even without a pay, one could improve his/her skills just by constantly doing well the temporary job. This also increases the chances of being scouted by other firms or companies if you start to make a name for yourself in that field. The establishment you are signing-up might even regularize you and start paying you handsomely for a job well done. All of which are not possible if you only stayed at home doing absolutely nothing.
However with the advancement of technology and even the increasing popularity of blogging and even the blockchain. If one is really serious about staying at home then he/she must explore this options. It's definitely much harder compared to working outside but given enough time it will really start to pay well.
I understand that majority of people work because of money. There are bills to be paid, needs to be met and financial targets to hit. But there are also people who work not just for the money.
If money was all there was to jobs, i'm sure wives of very rich men wouldn't need to work especially IF there was enough money to run the family and still go round but most of them still work for several reasons. Top among those reasons is the joy and satisfaction that comes from rendering a good service. That feeling of knowing that you are the one putting smiles on people's face. You're the reason someone is happy. You'll go to work with a healthy attitude if you have this understanding.
So, in a situation where I can't find a paying job, I'd sign up for voluntary service. With passion and dedication in the job even without payment, you are sure to get recommendation soonest.
Recently, I rounded off my national youth service corps program in Nasarawa state, Nigeria. I'm yet to get a job though. During my service year, I signed up to join a non-government body, whose focus was giving back to the society. The body just started, yet to get approval though but we've kicked off with so many projects. Because of my involvement with this group in imparting lives within and outside my immediate community, I'm overjoyed, putting smiles on faces.
Rather than stay back home and waste the entire day, I invest it in imparting lives. I feel fulfilled. I suggest same for anyone who's yet to get a job of his or her dreams. Stay focused and give back to people. You would receive a multiplied harvest of the seed sown for whatever you sow, you reap.
Sitting at home will not help me get a job. The manager of the job I signed up for to render a selfless service will not watch me work fervently everyday without thinking of tipping me one day .this is common sense.
Even if im lucky, i might be consider at the long run if they like my service, but the most important part is that, It will give me the opportunity of meeting more people which can result into getting a job through them.
There are opportunities everywhere. If I'm jobless for yeas and I still remain at home, I will keep staying rotting at closed doors. If you are destined to be great and you don't work towards the greatness, chances are you might not attain the level of the greatness. Working out will be more preferable to sitting at home. At least I will make new friends and better things can flow in through them.
If I happen to be in this shoe, the temporary non paying job would have received me already.better than staying home and be stained with house odour.
Interesting question but, I don't get what you mean by non-oaying temporary job? Volountaryism? Hmm.... not sure about that, tbh. If I don't have money to put bread on the table, I definitely wouldn't do that.
I would stay at home and utilize my knowledge and the power of internet combined with blockchain technology to earn myself a living. Some are already able to do it on Steemit and some Steem-based Dapps. I've even noticed a couple of people on Musing.io that could quite possibly be making more than enough to ensure some decent paychecks for themselves. And that's with this low price of steem of 0.7$. Imagine how much they would be making when Steem will be 5$, or 10$. That's 7 to 14x more than now. That is probably much more than some could earn by working a "normal job".

I will honestly sign up. Why?
