So tired of the job search. Recruiters that ghost you, taking off work for an interview that leads no where, constantly hoping that I'll finally get an offer. I feel completely drained.

In the same boat. Won a lot of awards the past few years but it doesn’t seem to make a big difference.

Awards making a difference is the huge myth. They make you work hard to get them and they make false promises about promotions and raises and new jobs. But really the people that win from awards are your CCO’s who get huge bonuses from their masters at the holding companies.
