So you're about to graduate, or maybe you already have, and you're looking for a job. Sometimes it may feel like the equivalent of trying to catch a Snow Leopard on camera; a lot of waiting, for very little results. Don't worry, you're not alone! The best way to keep persevering with your treacherous job hunt is to use your weekend as a way to recoup, relax, and refresh your mind.
C'mon now, it's a Friday! Put away your laptop and stop staring at the LinkedIn job posts as if they're going to change within the next five minutes. Go outside, work out or grab a drink. Have fun! Sleep in on Saturday and spend the day doing what you love or just vegging out. Chances are your future employers are enjoying their Saturday as well, as should you. Sunday should be your day to grab brunch with a friend and start gearing up for a successful Monday. Like Zig's quote says, "You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great," and Monday is a great day to start back up! Sunday night, try making a list of things you want to accomplish tomorrow and write down the companies that you would like to contact. Monday morning you should wake up refreshed and ready to go! Send out your cover letters and remember to keep on keepin' on. No one said it would be easy and no one said it would happen quickly. Remember, good things happen when you work for it!
