From people who came through it

  • โ€œTo anyone just starting this: it's going to feel personal, and it is, but it's not always about you. The right thing will come. I've been ghosted after final rounds and it stings, but you pick yourself up. Talk to someone. Take a walk. Keep applying. It's a numbers game, and you're not useless. You have skills. I'm still figuring it out, but I know I'll get there.โ€

  • โ€œI'm not going to pretend it's easy. Losing a job sucks. The ghosting, the silence, the way people look at you. But you're not the only one. I found a training course, met some people. It's small but it's something. Don't stay in the shed too long. And answer at least one message a day. Even if it's just to say you're okay.โ€

  • โ€œTo whoever needs this: I was where you are this time last year. I remember the job centre appointment like it was yesterday. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Praying for you.โ€

  • โ€œA note for the next person. I was where you are in 2022. For me, a Teams call at 9am and it was over. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Hang on.โ€
