If I can do it, so can you
After being laid off a few months back. The past four months have been stressful and full of rejection. I know that it might sound like a broken record but do not give up. I made looking for a career my full time job and treated every interview like it was just practice for the “right opportunity”. I start my new career tomorrow and it is an amazing opportunity. Do not settle and do not give up. The four months when I was searching seemed like a lifetime, but when I look back at all of the rejections, I am so glad I did not get offer’s because the perfect position was waiting for me! #nevergiveup

I agree, you can never give up. Thanks for the encouraging post and congrats.
