Navigating Unemployment: Recent Experiences from the Job Search

<p><a href="thenowwhat.co.uk">thenowwhat.co.uk⁠</a>This week&#39;s episode is less polished structure, more honest reflection. I&#39;m walking through some recent experiences from my own job search — the kind of things that happen when you&#39;re in the middle of redundancy and nobody&#39;s handing out a manual.</p><p><br></p><p>I answer questions about what&#39;s been hardest lately, how interviews have gone (and the specific exhaustion that comes from smiling at a webcam while three people take notes), what motivation actually looks like when your laptop autocompletes &quot;jobs in&quot; before you&#39;ve finished typing, and how to handle rejection emails that all start with &quot;thank you for your interest.&quot;</p><p><br></p><p>No neat solutions here. Just the reality of what this phase looks like when you stop pretending you&#39;ve got it all figured out.</p><p><br></p><p>If you&#39;re navigating your own unemployment or career transition, head to <a href="theinvisiblequeue.co.uk" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">theinvisiblequeue.co.uk</a> to connect with others going through the same thing.</p>
