    Usually, yes. Keep at it. Keep applying. Good luck!

    Yep, apply and forget about it. Well, don't forget, but don't stare at it either. Keep forging ahead with applying.

    Companies may drag their feet weighing their potential employee options (maybe even waiting for a perfect candidate as long as they can). Better to continue hunting until you start a new job.

    Some would say yes. My recipe---keep a humming kitchen. Keep cooking what you want, many pots or dishes. Find the joy when you can and don't wait on just one. Keep at it.

    Good luck!
