What "win" did you recently have even if it may not have resulted in a new position? For me, I have always struggled with interview nervousness. After so much recent practice, I went through my latest interview extremely calm. It did not get me the job but it was still a nice breakthrough moment for me!

That is really great! I have to say I am coming into a better place when it comes to job hunting. It was something constantly on my mind and a lot of stress. While it is still a stress to me, I’m doing a lot better at managing it and being able to have some down time for feeling calm again.

I'm glad to hear you are coping so much better, that is a huge win! Making sure the stress doesn't overpower us is half the battle

That is awesome OP. I actually finally landed a second interview with a company so fingers crossed that goes well. I haven't had a second interview since I was laid off and its been so hard to find a role.

Congratulations, just getting to the next step is a feat in itself! I hope all goes well!
