Electrical Engineer
For the last six months, I’ve been applying continuously but haven’t received a single interview call. Until January, I had a good-paying job, but due to health issues, I had to resign. Since then, I’ve been actively searching for opportunities.
In the meantime, I upskilled myself with three courses in data analysis and software development, but still, no luck. It’s been frustrating, and honestly, sometimes it feels like the end of the road.

You might already be doing this but it might be worth tailoring your resume a bit if you're not already. Like addressing the key selection criteria in the ad for each job. I don't think there are any easy solutions but you're definitely not alone.

Sorry to hear that. It’s tough out there. You might consider adding some AI courses to your list as well. Good luck!

the job market is challenging. i surely know that still got employers that open hiring across all levels. Good thing that you upskilling yourself. Who knows you might end up in different industry than engineering.
