selling myself

I'm beginning to truly hate the job hunt. I've applied for 5 now (only one "no" thus far) and am already sick of attempting to sell myself. I already struggle with overanalyzing everything in life and this compounds the problem. I want a job. I want to be humble. I don't want to overthink things, yet it seems I have to do those last two things in order to get the first. It's frustrating.

I just interviewed with Teach For America. It went alright I suppose. And now I'm overanalyzing this. I just choose to continue trusting that if I do my best, something will work out. I have to and it will.

  1. Try not to stress about it! I know, that's impossible, but I know that you will get the job that's right for you. You are an exceptional candidate :)

  2. Sorry about the stress! I can imagine it would be frustrating. And I totally understand the difficulty between selling yourself and remaining humble. I'll be going through this soon enough, and am already starting to over analyze! Best of luck, looking forward to seeing what's in store for you. :)
