Transitioning from the Service Industry

I’m okay 65-70% percent of time but lately it’s been flaring . I don’t want to lose the opportunity and feel I should at least try and do my best . im praying to god , to help me land this job only if its meant to be as im afraid my health “might “ affect my performance . I’m currently still going through the interview process . Would like some feedback from some mid -senior level professionals . Has anyone been in this situation before ?

I've been in my company for 9 months . The perfect secondment opportunity came up . My manager said to meet the secondment manager. However, my meeting didn't go well. I asked all the relevant questions but the secondment manager was very negative in her responses and I felt bad vibes. The role was perfect and exactly what Ive been dreaming of . But every question I'd ask she would be negative and say x person is tough x team will write bad reviews. I didn't know if this was to check how i'd behave so I just twisted it positively and say how I'd adapt and help her with these challenges. I rejected the opportunity but don't know if it's the right decision. How do you determine if the secondment is right for you

Curious to know others thoughts on this topic. I've been hearing 2-5 years. I think there are multiple factors that determines the time such as security, money, toxic space, they love the role or company, it's not your career goal, they're bored etc

Some resume details might seem small, but to employers, they can raise big questions and they may hold back the job seeker. Here is a closer look at the red flags that might be doing more harm than good. https://www.market-connections.net/blog/resume-red-flags

I wanted to get some other perspectives from anyone that has become a mum and feels like they need to/want to take a step back in their career? I don't know if my experience is unusual or if this is a common thing that happens. I have a very limited village, so any illness or issue means I have to take time off work etc. and progressing in my career in a high stress environment doesn't feel sustainable alongside the home life pressure. Is anyone willing to share their experiences?

Job searching can be draining, and one of the biggest hurdles is the sheer volume of applications. Don't let application fatigue slow you down. Here's a simple, step-by-step guide to help you power through: Step 1: Optimize Your Resume for Each Role, Efficiently! Instead of rewriting your entire resume for every job, focus on targeted tweaks. Identify 3-5 keywords from the job description and make sure they appear naturally in your resume, especially in your summary and experience sections. Use an AI tool or a word cloud generator to quickly spot these keywords in the job posting. This saves time and significantly increases your chances of passing applicant tracking systems (ATS). Step 2: Craft a Concise, Impactful Cover Letter Template Stop writing unique cover letters from scratch. Develop a master template that includes sections for your introduction, your key skills and achievements, and a strong closing. For each application, simply customize the company name, job title, and one or two sentences that specifically highlight why you're a perfect fit for this particular role. Keep it brief – three paragraphs are usually enough. Step 3: Set Application Limits (and Stick to Them!) It's tempting to apply for everything, but this often leads to burnout. Decide on a realistic number of applications you'll submit each day or week (e.g., 3-5 quality applications per day). Once you hit that number, stop! Use the extra time to network, learn new skills, or simply recharge. This helps maintain your energy and focus, ensuring each application gets the attention it deserves.
