Practice open communication, leverage your network, share resources with peers, advocate for your colleagues, and research new ideas, skills and platforms.

Making a pivot in your career is never easy but harnessing the tools and techniques you already have along with new alternatives, can help navigate the process toward a successful outcome.

8/ Prioritize well-being and keep a positive mindset: Engage in activities that nurture your mental well-being, such as exercise, meditation, or hobbies that you enjoy. Maintain a positive outlook by reminding yourself of your strengths and past accomplishments, which can help you stay motivated.

6/ Focus on growth: Take courses or workshops to enhance your skills during search. It’s an investment in your future competitiveness. 7/ Join supportive communities: Engage with groups where you can share and learn from others’ experiences. It provides both emotional support and practical advice.

4/ Diversify your job search: Continue applying to multiple opportunities. This not only broadens your options but also helps buffer the emotional toll of ghosting. 5/ Ask for feedback: If you get a response, ask for feedback to gain insights that could improve your future applications.

2/ Stay persistent but polite: Follow up with periodic emails or calls to show your interest, but keep it professional and avoid being aggressive. 3/ Network strategically: Use your connections for insights and referrals. Personal contacts can give you an edge in the hiring process.

What job seekers can do: 1/ Don't take it personally: Ghosting reflects more on the employer's processes, not your worth. Detach your self-esteem from the outcomes of applications.

The job market is getting better. Good luck there Juni!
