This time, her experience has been unprecedented. She has managed to get herself motivated to put her fears aside and apply to no less than 5 (and sometimes as many as 8) jobs each day. Within that week, she got hired once, had two interviews today which she believes went really well for jobs she likes better than where she got hired, and is pretty sure one and possibly two more interviews are forthcoming.
She has never ever seen results like this. She went from being so scared of trying to get a job that it was anything she could use as an excuse to stop, to finding a job without my help. Amazing.
Man if only I had that a couple of years ago lol. I'm really glad it's working for her. Not being able to find a job can really take its toll on your mental health, especially if you know you have to do it and fear seems to stop you in your tracks.
