Returning to a job search after hiking 2,653 miles on the Pacific Crest Trail. Pivoting into a new industry, becoming a first-time landlord, and the jitters of moving away from a tech hub.
Really enjoyed this issue! I liked this job seeker not only took the time off to pursue her personal dream of hiking PCT, but also has a generally positive attitude throughout the search! I can really relate to her ups and downs like the sting of not getting feedback. Seems like she is striking a really healthy balance across targeting her search, her house stuff going on, and enjoying the freedom of not having to work. :) Best of luck to this week's job seeker!!! 💪💪
Agreed. I love that her note of advice to fellow job seekers is to get outside, which seems obvious, but it's easy in this market to obsess with the search and throw wellness out the window.
Anyone with the grit to hike on foot from Mexico to Canada can work with me any day, and I think she's bringing that grit into her search. Thanks for the kind note; I'm sure she appreciates it 👀
Wow I wasn’t gonna read this bc most articles on this subject suck! This is the most detailed log I’ve seen, and it makes it feel like real-life; not just a tab I keep open to get tips on my job search. Love the positive attitude, but what I love even more…
You have the opposite job search style as me. I’ve never been great at networking. I’m good with people. Just not good at the whole professional job co worker, half-friends kinda thing. Aside from that, I HATE job searching. I’ve always done cold applications bc it doesn’t make much sense a person would want to “network” with some random person who clearly just wants a job.
Anyway, I am so opposite to your thinking that I made a chrome extension that uses Ai to automatically apply to jobs. Yeah, I’d rather write a full stack app to automate job applications than fill out job applications 🥲. I’m curious of how much what you’re doing I could automate too.
