Your career development plan did not include looking for a job for over six months and discouragement is a mild description of your attitude. It may seem like you’re sinking deeper and deeper into the well with no lifeline. What can you do to restore your faith in yourself and your confidence in your ability to find a job? You know your attitude affects the persona you present at an interview so it’s critical for your mental health as well as your ability to land that job. It’s time to take a break!
