I don’t even know how many applications I’ve sent anymore.
You apply. You wait. You get your hopes up a little. Then another rejection email comes in and somehow you’re back on Linkedin doing it all over again.
I think the hardest part isn’t even the rejection anymore.
It’s having to keep showing up like it doesn’t affect you.
Updating the resume again. Writing another cover letter. Filling out the same information for the hundredth time. Trying to convince yourself that maybe this one will be different.
Some days I’m hopeful. Some days I’m just tired. Most days I’m probably somewhere in between.
But somehow... I’m still applying.
If you’re stuck in this phase too, how long have you been job hunting? I genuinely want to know because I know I can’t be the only one
And send this to that one friend who’s also fighting for their life on Linkedin right now.
