Every day until the day I actually leave
Daily. Desperate to go but the market is tough
Multiple times a week. Nearly every day.
I thought about it casually for about 6 months. Then, in Jan 2023 I saw something I was like, woah, I could be a good fit. By the time I tailored my resume to submit it, the position had been taken down (it was literally a few days, ugh). I realized then in the disappointment that I was more serious about leaving than I'd thought. I ultimately did not find the right opportunity until Feb 2024, but every single day I'm so grateful to land where I did even though by the time I left I was in tears on a daily basis.
Everyday. Desperate to transition out of a purely litigation role but that seems to be all that’s available in this market.

Apply when you see things open up. You never know and just putting your résumé out there doesn’t take too long. If you end up not interested in the job you don’t have to take it. But I’ve seen great opportunities open up even when the market wasn’t great, just a matter of keeping an eye out and having your resume ready to go.
