Hey guys, it’s interesting reading your guys posts. I’m glad there is outlet for people or job Seekers. Most companies get 200+ applications per position sometimes upwards 500-1000 applications. Many job postings only offer casual or part time work 10 hrs with ability to pick up extra shifts. So in environment like this. Its crucial you focus on taking care of yourself i.e go to the gym lift weights, focus your nutrition, build connections stay positive. Any other self help tips add them

Yeah totally agree 👏 Gotta look after yourself. I try to keep some kind of routine, get outside every day, so I don’t go into full hermit mode. Even doing a short course or volunteering can help keep things positive while job hunting.

Great post Chris. So easy to forget self care when things get tough. 🫶
For me having a creative outlet really helps me escape from thinking about work and feel like I'm achieving something. Also a big believer in going for a walk when stuff starts to stack up.

Great idea! Definitely exercise for me, whatever that looks like if it's running, gym, sports. Makes a massive difference for my stress levels. Also, find a way to laugh. I've got some friends who just crack me up and they make everything better.
