Employment Challenges

1. The Job Hunt

This is not actually my challenge, but if it was, what would you recommend?

"I have sent out dozens of resumes and cover letters over the last three months, but I rarely get a response. When I do get an interview, I get really nervous and feel like I’m rambling, and then I never hear back. I’m starting to lose confidence and worry that I’m unhireable or looking in the wrong places."

3. Difficult Workplace Dynamics

This is not actually my challenge, but if it was, what would you recommend?

I have a dream of switching to a totally different industry, but I’m terrified of taking a pay cut or starting over from the bottom when I have a mortgage and family to support."

5. Resignation and Departure

This is not actually my challenge, but if it was, what would you recommend?

"I have finally found a new opportunity and I know it’s time to leave, but I am terrified of the resignation conversation. My team is understaffed, and I feel guilty for leaving them in a lurch. I want to leave on good terms without burning bridges, but I don't know how to word my notice or handle the exit interview gracefully."
