I'm at the 8 month mark right now. I couldn't tell you how to stay motivated because I'm sure as hell not right now. Nothing more demotivating than hundreds of rejection emails.
I'm at 6 months stretch and I've just been offered a roll that is way under my pay grade but it's a permanent position. I don't want to take it but I have no income it's only paying minimum wage and I'm clearing worth 60-75k but I need money so I'm going to take it. But continue to interview for better positions.
Yes it took almost a year for me
3 years
I allow it to fuel me to keep going even harder by applying on different platforms and walk ins after my apps are completed I also pray before stepping into the establishment!
What approaches are folks taking who have been on the hunt for this long? Is it mass-applying? Customized resumes for each application? How are you battling ATS auto-rejections? Have you sought any help/guidance throughout the process, or are you going it alone? You’re clearly NOT alone in the struggle…
What industry is this? Is the person unemployed during this time or just actively interviewing while employed ?

Just keep hitting application targets and networking!
