coming up on a year since my last job. it's actually amazing how easy it is to lose everything u worked towards compared to how difficult it is to build it. trying to search for opportunities i can take advantage of, but the more i look the less i find and the more discouraging it is to keep looking. could just use some pointers on navigating this barren wasteland we call our current job market.

I have no advice per se. Hang in there. Keep applying. It’s rough out there but…you never know what door or window will open…for you to climb through, but you have to be looking. Lots of ppl will give good feedback on here- Good luck
