Just read an article from Fortune about people feeling too burnt out to apply for jobs. Is that you? I get it. This paragraph really summed it up for me: "Compounding the immobility: job seekers are being ghosted at a three-year high, with more than half of applicants reporting no response from employers in the past year. Hiring experts connect the trend directly to AI-inflated application volumes overwhelming recruiters — the same feedback loop burning candidates out. [...]"

I was recently wrongfully fired. I did not want to fight this for fear that it would go to the nursing board and they might sign with the employer so I chose to just leave. How do I explain this to all future employers without insulting my last job.

I have a strong interview anxiety. I know I have a great potential because of my work ethic, values, experiences, and qualities as a person. But, how can I prove that to the panel if I'm super nervous and forget what to say at the moment. My anxiety ruins my opportunity to show them that I'm a great fit. I don't know how to overcome this.

This may sound weird but hear me out. I have an interview coming up for a role that I have a strong suspicion is not a good fit for me. So I figure this is a good opportunity to try out some things that I’ve never been brave enough to do before. E.g. try to prioritize making personal connection over demonstrating the fit. I’m looking for more ideas though. Do you have any suggestions or questions that I can try? Happy to report back with results!

Hey folks -- what’s a subtle interview red flag people should pay more attention to that most candidates ignore at first? I’ll start: - The interviewer constantly interrupts or seems distracted the whole time. - Nobody can clearly explain what the role actually involves day to day. - They dodge questions about turnover, onboarding, or why the role is open. - The interview feels weirdly adversarial for no reason. Anything else that comes to mind?
