Life after graduating

I recently just finished up my 4 years of undergrad and when they say it’s hard to find a job they weren’t kidding!

I know I haven’t been applying nearly as much as some people but all of the places I’ve interviewed have decided to move on with other candidates or it just falls through and it is frustrating and upsetting because I know what I have to offer!

but if anyone else is going through this just know don’t give up and keep going! It may be hard right now but it won’t be like that forever :) #storytime #lemon8contest

Post-university job searching often comes with rejections and feelings of inadequacy, as highlighted by the OCR content. It's essential to understand that this struggle is common and can vary in duration for each individual. Many graduates face a similar scenario, searching endlessly for opportunities that fit their skills and ambitions. Joining job fairs, networking through social media, and connecting with alumni can be incredibly beneficial. Online resources and workshops on resume building and interview skills can bolster your confidence and chances of success. Moreover, consider internships or freelance work as a stepping stone to gain experience while exploring different fields. As the job market can be competitive, adaptability and perseverance are crucial. Above all, remain hopeful and motivated, as the right opportunity may be just around the corner.

It took me 3 years to get the job I have now. I am so sorry you are going through it! But like you said don’t give up! What helped me was LinkedIn premium, it lets you know how qualified you are compared to other candidates. So I only applied to the jobs I was in the top 10%! Such a time saver! Good luck! ❤️❤️
