Mental health during the job search is such an important thing that is constantly overlooked or brushed under the rug. I hear from so many jobs kers who are burnt out, who are just fed up with the process and really feeling it. When you're totally maxed, when there's nothing left in the gas tank, and you keep trying to push forward, that's where the burn out happens,. s where the mental breakdowns happen. That's where we really start to suffer. And we don't want to get to that place.
