I have applied to over 150 positions since September 2024, I have had 14 Interviews, zero offers. Also, researched companies tailored my resume to job description with a cover letter. However, nothing is happening, this is the longest period of unemployment I have experienced...so if anyone can guide me in a new direction, I would be appreciative.

Thank you kindly,

What is the feedback your getting after interviews? Or are you not getting any at all, again so sorry

If you've gotten that many interviews, your resume seems to work, and you must appear as a strong candidate. You could, perhaps, do some brainstorming about how to ace the interviews. But it's possible that in a market this competitive that you're just being edged out. Even strong candidates will have that happen.

I hate hearing this. It’s rough out there! I know so many people in the same position as you. You’re not alone! Just keep trucking, as hard as it can be.

Right so here’s a bit of a dilemma I work to a much higher standard at home and it’s this high standard that means I’m in line for a promotion.

The problem is we’re going back into the office and I don’t want to go in if it’s just going to be senior management in asking me to get them lunches for client meetings or fetch a glass of water and cutlery for meeting rooms. Definitely not ready to go back to that….

They are resistant because they just want the work to be done and don’t “want to keep spending money on internal jobs”. I’m confused because we’re doing the work either way and “spending” in labor/resources.
