Shout out to Adesuwa Igbineweka for an engaging talk with job seekers about finding balance and staying motivated during the holiday season. She reminded us of the importance of rest—giving ourselves permission to recharge—but also emphasized the value of reflection and review in the job search process. Her thought-provoking questions challenged us to think critically about our approach: ✅ How many applications do you review in a week? ✅ Who is your support system? ✅ What resources are available to you? ✅ Do you have a tracking system? By taking the time to reflect, we can ensure our job search is both focused and effective, even during this busy season. Thank you for sharing these insights and encouraging our community to find motivation and maintain momentum while prioritizing self-care. 💡 What are some strategies you use to stay motivated in your job search?
