Job Hunting I never thought job hunting would be such a difficult challenge when I resigned from the last company. It is a very good company with decent payment, but I was silly enough to think that I could easily find a better one, so I quited almost without hesitation. I never thought I would regret that decision, but now I do regret it. I wish I could went back a month ago and sternly warn myself that it was the most unwise decision to make. As time paced into June, there has been little job choice to select from. I did get some offers, but the pay was far below that of the last company, and I simply could not swallow my pride to take them. I also received an offer from a company located in the other citiy, but it pained me so much to leave the city I currently live in that I had no choice but to decline it. I can't help but start to question my own value. I had been so lucky to receive offers from three famous companies the first time I resigned that I thought I could get another without difficulty, totally forgetting to take time into consideration. Since the recruitment season has long pasted, I'm only left with some job opportunities that are not appealing enough to attract applications. Now I feel like I'm nothing, and I don't really know what I can do. Sometimes I really want to cry, but I know clearly that would not solve any problem. They say it's so important not to get lost, but I'm lost. I know I should not lose hope, and new opportunities are to be expected, but sometimes it's too hard to keep your expectation up while reality is hitting you hard. But I will try, and keep hoping and fighting for the best, or else I don't know what to do. Thanks for reading and please don't mind the errors in the article too much, I just want to get it out of my chest. It's been such a painful month and I don't think I can bear it alone. I don't want to distress my family and my friends too much so I decide that this community would be the best place. If you have similar experience or any advice, please share with me. I would be very obliged. Thanks again.
