Happy wins Wednesday! I've been busy today, so I'm throwing out a theme: share your wins, big or small, job-related or not! I'll kick things off – my little win is finally getting some freelance work from a company that hadn't given me any in a month.h.

Wow, that's such great news! Thanks for sharing. For me, my little win is that my account has finally been accepted into Amazon Flex to deliver some boxes, and I have a scheduled delivery that pays me $80 for 2 hours. I am happy!

I got a referral for a job from a friend. Here’s to hoping a current employee recommendation helps. I also was able to volunteer again this morning. That made me happy.

Got some side projects going. I pray I get paid well once done.

I landed a new freelance client! It's a small project (capped at 10 hours and $500 per week), but I'm still really happy about it. I need the money in the worst way, and it's a pretty fun gig to boot!

That is great. I love freelance, the only problem is if I do too much, I have to either pay quarterly or pay taxes, since I normally get a 1099. The last "job" I had was that way for the 5 years I worked it.

Looking for a new roommate for a very affordable and spacious Capitol Hill apartment in a great location (right by Lincoln Park). 2bd + 1br. $1000 for the larger bedroom (2 closets!). Basement apartment but very well lit in common area. Hoping for someone chill and friendly, since we'll likely be seeing a lot of each other this year! Flexible move in anytime in October. Prefer female roommate (I'm female as well) since the bathroom is shared. Please message for more information if interested.

I’ve been applying for jobs and internships in my field (looking for jobs in media production, social media, music, entertainment) for months with no luck. They say it’s about connections, but my connections are limited especially in these fields. I am constantly ghosted by recruiters and managers on LinkedIn. I have film PA experience, but other than that my background is in retail. Any advice going forward?
