The Job Search: In Reality
I've spent 10 months without a full time job, and throughout it I've done a whole lot. This is a public record of the main storyline. Do I think that the offer I currently hold could've happened at the beginning of that period?
Maybe, but honestly, maybe not.
During these months, I'd say the process was like polishing a stone, as well as changing its name a few times. This, in other words, meant that I changed the way that I understood my career, and how I translated it for others, which turned out to be key.
If you're in the middle of a job search: entries 1, 4 and 5 are the ones worth coming here for. The rest is just what the process looked like for me. I believe there's stuff to be digested in this whole thing, but I'm not aiming to waste your time (which is precious no matter who you are)
paperwork and logistics still happening
