I’m currently in the thick of job hunting, and I have to say, it really feels like a full-time job. Anyone else feel the same way? I thought I’d share my experience and see if others can relate or offer some advice.
Every day, I wake up early, make my coffee, and sit down at my computer to start the job search. I spend hours scrolling through job boards, tweaking my resume, writing cover letters, and filling out applications. It’s incredibly time-consuming and can be pretty disheartening, especially when you don’t hear back at all for months. I’ve come to this conclusion that this whole job searching is more stressful than a full time job. This is a lonely flight and the worst part- there’s zero pay, only a hope for a better tomorrow.
So, I’m curious, how do you all manage the job hunting process? How do you handle the emotional ups and downs on an almost daily basis?
