where people are missing the mark in the job search #jobsearch #jobsearchtips

Where do you think people are really missing the mark right now? I think the biggest thing I see holding folks back, the negativity right now. Of course, we know the market is the market, but people are using that as a mechanism to stop taking action. I just see that at scale, and it's unfortunate because you find yourself in this bubble. You're not in the Torque community, you're not in the 100Devs community. You don't have that positivity coming in that shows you if you put in the effort, you will get the result out. And so when you don't see effort equaling result, you get burnout. So the first and biggest mistake you're making is being in a negativity chamber. You have to be around other people that are job searching, that are on the hunt, that are making wins, that are getting interviews, that are getting opportunities, that are getting jobs. So when you put yourself in that kind of environment, you start to go, hmm, maybe I can do it too. Maybe it isn't all doom and gloom. And then you take more action.
