I am currently looking for a job, I’ve been in the job market for about 8 months. I’ve had some amazing interviews with top companies that I didn’t apply for. I didn’t land any of the jobs and in most cases I was a PERFECT match. It’s getting very frustrating, I get my hopes up and then nothing one of my strengths are my interview skills and obviously my resume since I’m getting noticed by recruiters. I’m feeling defeated but I have to keep moving forward . Anyone else feeling the blues ?

Idk this is hard to tell, but from experience, always revamp resume, take the description of the job and put them into your resume. Apply to 20-40 jobs daily. Lastly: your mindset when applying for jobs. Be grateful and thankful for you new job. ❤️

Accenture Hello, this past December I applied to a Devops role at Accenture. I didn’t get the position but I looked on their website and noticed they have an software engineer apprenticeship.

I really think I would be a good fit for the apprenticeship. What can anyone recommend? Can I possibly get a referral.
