Looking for a job is always such a daunting task. You want to find the perfect job right off the bat, but you soon become desperate to find just a job. What's worse is when you apply to numerous positions only to hear back from maybe two of them. Before you know it, you're right back to having to go through this dreaded job-seeking process all over again.
1. Scrolling through job postings for hours on end, and seeing how many applications you have to do now
Finding a job feels like a job itself.
2. When you look at entry-level jobs, but see the words “must have 5+ years experience” in every single job description
It's called "entry level" for a reason, right?
3. When you can upload your resume, but you still have to write everything out in the application
4. When you have to write yet another cover letter
As if a resume and an application weren't enough already.
5. When LinkedIn correctly autofills your application
#blessed
6. Finally submitting in your application
No turning back now.
7. Applying for 30-plus jobs, but still feeling like it's not enough
8. Trying to network
Please like me, please like me, please like me.
9. Stalking employees at your dream company on LinkedIn
10. Getting ready for an interview
11. When a job requires a video interview, a phone interview, an in-person interview, and a test
12. Waiting to hear back from potential employers
13. When your parents ask if you've heard back from anybody yet
I'm pretty sure you guys would be the first ones to know if anything happens.
14. When people keep asking if you have a job yet
Please stop asking it.
15. When you get rejected
16. When your friends keep posting about their new jobs on Facebook
I'm so happy for you ...
17. Realizing you may have to live with your parents until you can find a job
18. Questioning if you will ever get a job
