Hi, I'm reaching out for advice. With 2 years of strong sales and customer service experience in India and currently passed MBA from London, I've applied to over 300 jobs in the UK without success. Despite my relevant experience and education, I'm struggling to land a role. I'd appreciate any guidance on improving my approach, highlighting my skills, or exploring alternative strategies to boost my job prospects in the UK.

Have you tried networking much? I think that that really matters in this job market right now, especially in sales. If you're new to the UK, I would try going to conventions and stuff to meet people in sales who could possibly connect you to opportunities or give you referrals.

I think the job market is terrible everywhere right now. I have several very experienced friends that are struggling to find a new role. I would definitely keep applying and trying to get referrals. Hang in there.

We recently got the ok to schedule our orientation and delivery date for our IVF medications and all I have to say is ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF! My husband has dermatomyositis, and his doctor put off treatment so that we could do some collection and go through IVF. I felt like my dr was blowing off our timeline, but I persisted. I worked with CVS Caremark directly and got approval in 2 days (not the expected 3 weeks). Moral of the story: ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF!

- Learn Typography: Typography is essential because 60-70% of user interfaces are about written content displayed in a meaningful way.

- Learn Layout and Composition: You don’t need to be pixel perfect, but if you place labels 10px above inputs, you must do that consistently across your whole design.

- Learn Color: Color doesn't need to be complex. Understand how colors interact with each other and learn how color can set moods.

So I recently learned about the Boston Molasses Disaster.
