You’re Not Broken. The System Is.

You are not broken. The job market is. Here is what to do when you are tired of being polite and still unemployed.

Let’s be real. Job searching today feels like a full-time hustle that comes with zero perks. No paycheck. No days off. Just vibes and disappointment.

If you are stuck in that daily loop of checking job boards before brushing your teeth, it is not just you. We know the pattern. You rework your resume for the fifteenth time, send it out with a tiny spark of hope, and then spend the rest of the day questioning everything.

Here is the truth most people will not say out loud. You are not the problem. The system is.

What you need to hear:

• You do not need to act like a robot to sound professional.

• You can apply to jobs that seem out of reach. Those descriptions are unrealistic anyway.

• You do not need ten versions of your resume. You just need one that actually works.

Let’s break it down:
Most job listings are written by people who do not even do the job they are hiring for. That “perfect candidate” checklist is wishful thinking, not reality. Companies want adaptable, reliable people who show up and solve problems. If your resume does not reflect that clearly in under ten seconds, it is getting skipped.

Forget the buzzwords. Forget overthinking. Get clear on what you’ve done, how it helped the business, and what you want next. No fluff. No corporate poetry.

You are not lazy. You are exhausted from giving your all for less than enough. Let change that.
