It's Friday the 13th so we wanted to shed light on one of the scariest parts of the job search process: Interview Burnout ?? Interview burnout is becoming more common in 2024, especially with the growing demands of multi-stage interview processes. Many candidates experience symptoms like constant exhaustion, lack of motivation, anxiety before interviews, and even detachment from the roles they’re pursuing. If you find yourself dreading each upcoming interview or feeling increasingly stressed with every step, you might be experiencing interview burnout. This is especially prevalent in today’s job market, where extended hiring timelines, remote processes, and multiple rounds of interviews have become the norm. If this sounds familiar, it's important to recognize the signs and take action: 1. Prioritize your mental health: Take breaks between interviews, practice self-care, and avoid scheduling too many interviews close together. 2. Stay selective: Focus on positions that truly match your skills and career goals to reduce unnecessary interviews. 3. Manage expectations: Ask recruiters about timelines upfront so you're not left in the dark. Remember, burnout is a sign you need to slow down, not give up. The right role is worth the wait! #InterviewBurnout #JobSearch #ImprovingLives #RecruiterInsight

Is scrolling through someone’s social media justified, or is it an overreach? Let us know your thoughts!
