Feeling burnt out in job search at the moment…

[khunsu]

I just graduated from uni this past May and I am diligently looking for a design job. I have applied to over 60 positions in the past month and a half. I’ve gotten lots of interviews, a few second interviews, and along with that some design tests. I haven’t gotten one offer yet and I’m feeling just burnt out and hopeless at this point. There aren’t any jobs left in my area—although there is a consistent trickle of new jobs getting posted.

Anyone else in the same boat? I have some friends/classmates who are experiencing it as well. I’m told finding your first design job is the hardest and I’m certainly feeling that at the moment. Just wanted to rant a bit, but if anyone has any words of encouragement or advice it would be much appreciated. Anyways thanks for listening ♥️

the design craft is now really suffering from the global crisis, but do not despair, my friend, I recommend that you register on freelance sites and develop a portfolio for the future
