Well after committing to 1,678 hours of job search within the past 11 months, 5-6 interviews all the way to 3rd and 4th round I am done. Just finished another marathon interview and it was only for an HR coordinator role with job expectations of that of talent management, payroll and Director paying a “whomping 62k” annually. I am switching careers. I understand this job market sucks but my mental and physical wellbeing can’t take anymore…….. not to mention the time and money. Sigh 😮‍💨

Understand how you feel. Only have been out of work since the beginning of January and am trying to switch careers. Probably going to have to take a 20-30,000 pay cut at first.

Are cover letters important if they don’t ask for one? There are so many job postings and applicants I can’t tell if they would be beneficial to show effort or just a waste of time to write with how little time I assume people are looking at applications with the mass hiring going on. If I should be writing one, any advice how to format?

I have been giving interview from last 2 months and yet I haven't got a single offer and people here are getting multiple offers. Even if interview goes nice, I would get rejection mail.

I guess Luck matters a lot even if you perform well. There would be always someone who will do better than you.

I am getting demotivated, but have to continue trying hard.

I really wish luck could be on my side.
