How do you avoid making the job search your entire life when seeking employment is your full-time pursuit? Searching for a new job is stressful and time-consuming. If you’re doing the full-time job search hustle, factors like financial stress and endless immersion in the hunt can quickly become overwhelming. Add to that, it’s taking many months or even a full year these days to land a job. All this highlights the need to build sustainability into your search.

Today, I’m sharing some strategies on how to do the same when you’re unemployed and searching for the perfect career opportunity. I hope that by tailoring these strategies to your own biorhythms and strengths, you’ll be equipped to approach this trying and tiring time with a bit more ease.
