Getting a personal loan can be a daunting task if you are without a job but there are few ways by which you can secure a personal loan even if you are unemployed.

Instead of approaching a financial institution for a personal loan, you can ask your friends and relatives to lend you money on a nominal rate of interest lower than the financial institution interest rate. But make sure to repay the loan amount as per your promised timeline to avoid bitterness with your friends or relatives.

Approach private lenders in case your bank refuses to give your personal loan. Private lenders usually sanction unsecured loans by charging a higher rate of interest as compared to banks. In that case you can get a loan from any lender if you fulfill the personal loan eligibility and have an ideal credit score. 

Take advantage of your credit score with your existing financial institution. If you have taken a loan earlier from your associate financial institution and have repaid it on time without delays, your financial institution will consider your loan application even if you are out of job by taking into consideration your creditworthiness.

If you are without a job, you can also apply for a personal loan against your life insurance policy or by pledging your movable or immovable assets in the form of property or gold jewellery. In this case, the bank’s risk proposition decreases drastically, which helps you get the loan at comparatively cheaper rates.
