Not sure if this is the place for it, but I’m just screaming into the dark at this point. I’ve been out of work for almost two months now. I have a strong resumé, an advanced degree (MA Communications), and solid references, and still job hunting is such a desperate fight. I keep getting ghosted or rejected outright and it’s become incredibly disheartening just to wake up every day to go through the same shit motions.
I have an interview tomorrow for a position that I think I have a good shot at, but I’m terrified of what comes next if this opportunity doesn’t pan out. I’m tired and depressed but more than anything I hate how guilty I feel for being unemployed. I just want to sustain myself and contribute something to the world, but can’t help worrying that I’ll wind up a waste.
I need, so badly, for something to work out.
