Job hunt not going too well? Yeah, I get it.
Look everyone, I know that it’s tough to break into the job market these days.
It sucks, I get it. I’m a Gen Z job seeker myself.
It sucks that after going through so many years of education, one can wait months or even years to land a job.
It sucks that most “entry-level” job offers want people with 1-2+ years of experience.
It sucks to have to send your CV to so many places and fill in so many forms, only to see them lost in the application void.
It sucks to get rejection email after rejection email.
But we can’t give up.
Even if we’re not employed yet, it doesn’t mean we can’t work.
We can take online courses. Learn a new skill. Work on an independent project. Explore our interests and passions.
I published a book. Started a comic strip. Continued with this blog.
That may not be a role at a renowned multinational company, but it’s something.
So what about you? You can do something too. Maybe you already are. Maybe you want to.
So don’t wait to get a job offer to start working each day. You never know where it’ll lead to.
All the best.
