This week I wanted to reflect on the dreading topic of job searching. As the fall semester of senior year is coming to a close, I'm sure many people can relate to the impending worry that is finding a job. Not only is it important to find a job, but finding one that you are going to enjoy is a challenge as well. I just wanted to reflect on this topic, as well as offer some advice to anyone who may be reading this. I am also open to advice as well!
The job hunt is such a difficult thing to manage and get through for many reasons. First, with applying for any jobs there is going to be a certain level of rejection. Whether or not you want to admit it, this is a difficult thing for your ego to handle, no matter how many or how little times you encounter it. For me, this in particular was really hard to manage because I feel like with how much work I have put into everything, I couldn't understand why nothing was working out in my favor. My advice for this is to just remain patient and to keep applying for things because, in the end, this just means that something greater that anything you had in mind is out there waiting for you to find it! Another piece of advice I could offer is that nothing worth having in life is going to come easy to you, so just keep working hard in your studies and resume building, and eventually it will all pay off.
In the end, all you can do is be yourself and really highlight your strengths. While maintaining a positive attitude can be hard, it is essential to success in this matter. Eventually, a company will see your strengths as awesome as you do and everything will work out. Everything happens for a reason and every rejection that you encounter is only meant to make you stronger. Keep searching my friends!
