Ironically, I'm exhausted by the LACK of rejection emails. All I'm getting is radio silence and ghosting. I would love a company to tell me thanks, but no thanks, so I stop waiting around to hear back from them.

I feel this in my soul. Every day I get my hopes up that maybe *this* will day I get an interview request email. Every day it doesn't happen and I just sink further and further into depression. I keep telling myself it'll get better, but I'm starting to really question if that's actually going to be the case...

I’ve feel about the same way every weekend when I have free time I’m like OK what have I done wrong and how can I do a different to try to get a better outcome been involved admin secretary work for 10+ years transitioned out of admin secretary, thinking it was going to be something better I was wrong and that trying to get back into it or trying to find something different that I just bring a difference and I’m beginning to think there’s not a different than anything any aspect of work anymore no matter how hard you try how much effort you put forth how much patience or compassion and individual has.

The key to the job search is just to develop a thick skin and not to take things too personally. That's especially true this year as the job market has been pretty awful. A lot of organizations have paused their hiring because of the uncertainty in the economy, and that affects everything and everyone. This strange period has to end eventually, so sure, it'll get better and you'll find a better job.

Thanks so much for this. And you are 💯 correct.

I’m the same. I need a job, but wish I could just give up. lol

Giving up is not an option when being alive comes with bills.

I feel the same way. Job searching is a fulltime job. I have been getting a lot of rejections also. I just keep pushing myself forward. I tell myself maybe it was good that I got rejected from this job because of my reasons, maybe it was not meant to be, maybe I wouldn't of fit in, etc. The more rejections I get I tell mysef I am getting closer to the job that meets my skills and needs. We have to pursue and work hard and the results will be worth it. Good luck to you,

Quick question how do you know how what 1099 job is reputable to get involved with I’ve never done it I’m wearing because it’s only commission it’s not a guarantee pay salary or hourly is or is there something I don’t know about 1099 jobs

never heard about it.

Definitely exhausting…but keep it up. After five month i finally got one interview and thursday i have the second interview for the same position. One position I applied for and interviewed, there were 2 thousand resumes sent, as per the HR recruiter that interviewed me. I did not get to the next round of that one, but just keep hunting, something will come up.

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out.

Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

Hello! I’m a Talent Acquisition Manager at a 300 FTE sized gov contractor with 2 recruiters under me. One of my recruiters and I are both having babies in August and will be out for 12 weeks. She’s only coming back part time. My leadership already said no to hiring another full time recruiter. Has anyone had any good experience with contract recruiters? Or any advice for a short term solution?

Crazy ethics issue. Client 1 has VPO against man who later becomes Client 2. This is the 4th VPO this year, previous ones dismissed.

In the meantime, State has filed rape charges against man who becomes Client 2 and A/B charges against Client 1. Client 1 also files for divorce.

Clients reconcile (which is how they both end up clients...) and want VPO dismissed, divorce dismissed, and criminal charges dismissed.

DHS gets involved and want to remove the child from Client 1's custody. (1/2)

Hey! I’m new here and would like some input. I’ve been working in a new position for almost 5 months. In that time I’ve witnessed some unethical and lots of unprofessional behavior.

Has anyone else had a mentor (assigned to them by the Company) who seemed to have it out for you? I mean downright sabotage to make you look bad left and right. I didn’t realize it at first. She was fake friendly, but she was discrete too. Some of the executives thought she was amazing, but I had to clean up her work all the time. She wasn’t above me either on the chain of command. Later I found out she had tried for the exec assistant role and they didn’t choose her, they wanted me instead.
