Searching for a job in today’s competitive market can be overwhelming and exhausting. To help you stay energized and positive during your job hunt, here are a few tips to consider that can help you avoid burnout.

1. Identify realistic goals: Break down your job search into manageable tasks and set achievable daily or weekly goals. This approach helps you stay focused and reduces feelings of being overwhelmed.

2. Set aside a certain amount of time each day for your job search: Rather than spending all day, every day, reviewing job openings and applying to jobs try to set aside just a dedicated amount of time each day for your search. Using Jennie Johnson can help you be more efficient in your job search as all of the info you need to find jobs, and apply, can be found in one place.

3. Stay organized: Keep track of your applications, follow-ups and interview schedules using a spreadsheet. Remember, if you run Resume Rewrites through Jennie Johnson, this information is organized in My Account/Reports for easy tracking. It is also sent via email.

4. Take regular breaks: It’s important to step away from your computer and give yourself regular breaks. Short walks, exercise or doing something you enjoy will recharge your mind and keep your stress levels in check.

5. Network with other job seekers: Spend time talking to other job seekers on social media or forums. Sharing experiences and learning from others will provide a sense of community that can be lacking when job searching. Jennie Johnson has a private group on Facebook where you can find other job seekers to talk to.
