    Doing a sanity check on the job hunt

    Doing a sanity check on the job hunt? You see, with all the bad things one can express in an uncomfortable situation, it is important to evaluate these things carefully with the good or possible good. Because, if you just see only bad you can become conditioned to this, and not see everything clearly. This makes us prone to bias, and so, as a simple sanity check, I am doing this by raising attention to the good I am experiencing from the perspective of recruiters and employers, albeit this is super scarce.

    So you set up your CV, than you need a cover letter, than you fill out the same details on the career site, however; when you find an external application, you need to do all of this again. Why, why, why? Gamification, my friend. If you would like to support my work by becoming a patron, please follow the link: patreon.com/RandallCliveIsaacs thank you.
