You’re not weak. It’s genuinely a dehumanizing, exhausting experience that seems to get worse year after year. I’m barely in my 30s, I’ve been laid off twice and had to relocate once. Each search was worse than the last.

Thanks for the kind words. I guess it’s just very difficult to fit into whatever mold these companies are looking for. It feels like they want a unicorn or a robot. And if you don’t somehow match their very specific buzzwords, your resume doesn’t get looked at.
It makes me feel like I’m not enough. I’m quite uncertain as to how I’ll make enough of a living going forward in the future, but I guess I shouldn’t worry about it too much. Stuff usually works out right? Haha

Not that you asked, but my advice is to shoot your shots wherever you find them. If the odds are bad either way, might as well aim for the jobs that will keep you sane and make things better for yourself and others.
