  • jobs what were you going through emotionally mentally you know you said

  • you had applied to 30 positions how are you feeling during that time there's war

  • you trip top-notch resume I remember that it was pretty depressing you know

  • it was hard for me to focus on my current job because it wasn't permanent

  • and I got like response immediately that kind of like a motivates me you know it

  • put me back into like a circle of applying and then just keep applying you

  • know right so then how did you feel when you started to get all those responses

  • because I said you applied to ten John not eight calls so I was like I was

  • overwhelmed because you know those companies like where I applied I

  • remember in one week I had like two interviews but I I wanted to go it you

  • know so that I don't want to risk any other chances so it was overwhelmed but

  • it was at the same time it was I was feeling actually thankful that at least

  • my job is really technical or my job is really particular in what they're

  • looking for how can I make sure that my resume is going to be written the right

  • way so you're a clear example of that you're someone who is highly technical
