Let’s be honest, job hunting can be emotionally draining. We’ve spoken to so many people going through the same thing – and you’re not alone.
Dealing with rejection?
It’s really tough, especially when it keeps happening. Try to structure your day so it includes time for job hunting, but also time to do things you enjoy and activities that help you feel motivated. Even a short walk or a chat with a friend can make a difference.
Been applying and interviewing consistently with no luck?
It’s hard, but also very common at the moment. If you’ve had feedback that you’re getting close, that’s a good sign. Before your next application, see if the hiring manager is open to a short call – it might help you tailor your CV and supporting statement more closely to what they’re really looking for.
Do you need to be active on LinkedIn?
Not necessarily. But having a strong profile and making the most of your network can help. Think of it as a useful tool, not a popularity contest.
Registered with recruitment agencies but not hearing back?
Uploading your CV is the first step, but the next is keeping an eye on live roles and reaching out when you spot something that feels like a fit. Don’t be discouraged – sometimes it’s about timing.
Will the job market get better?
We’re starting to see more movement, particularly in some areas of the sector. It might take time, but there are still great opportunities out there – and we really believe you’ll find the right one.
