have you thought about doing like a short cert program or apprenticeship instead of full school? sometimes that opens doors faster and cheaper

You’re not unemployable. The market’s just garbage right now. Recruiters ghost, apps go nowhere, and it’s demoralizing af. Don’t take it personal

got laid off over a year ago. been grinding applications non-stop, networking, taking courses… but no luck.
i’m starting to wonder if I’m just unemployable now. people keep saying “go back to school” but idk if that’s real advice or just something to say when no one knows what else to tell you.
is it worth it? or is this just false hope?
