Hi Sasha. yes that is correct (in this instance I would personally say you could use it was AND it has been. was is better if the task is finished, and has been should be used if it is still continuing (so far it has been exceeded 50-fold). If you think of 'fold' to mean 'times' it might help in this sense. although fold kind of just means -squared- maybe. It is a weird word. I personally don't use it that often. But it's like twofold - two times as many fivefold - firve times as many. etc etc

Correct me, please Describe a challenge you faced recently It was a few weeks ago. I decided to increase my salary. I felt relaxed at my current job but I felt disappointed about my knowledge and salary because I always did the same things all the time. I decided to leave my comfort zone and started to prepare. I spent about 2 weeks preparing --- You don't need I've spent here as you are not talking about the tjme until now but a point in the past. This process is over, you did it. I've spent would be "so far I've spent two weeks" but as you indicate that you have already sent the resume (not in the UK we would say CV) you are talking about a finished action . I studied every day. I woke up at six. It was difficult because I needed to work on my current job and prepare. I was tired. After two weeks I sent my resume to two companies and got an invitation to interviews. I felt stressed before the first interview but the next was better. I was more relaxed. As a result, I got two offers and I felt excited. Apart from that it is perfect as far as I can see. Some nice relevant phrases that might be useful are I had no room to grow I didn't see any progress I felt myself wasting away I felt excited is perfect- but since you use "felt" a lot maybe try: I was excited It was exciting I was/felt excited to start my new journey Suggestions that you might already know, but maybe worth mentioning :) Well done!
