Don't Make the Job Hunt Harder. 9 Strategies to Stay Sane and Get Hired

Don't Make the Job Hunt Harder. 9 Strategies to Stay Sane and Get Hired

CNET16-07-2025
From ghosting to burnout, experts share how you can land a job in a brutal market.
Jeffrey Hazelwood/CNET
Stephanie Wandell applied to hundreds of jobs since getting laid off from a tech marketing role last November. When I spoke to her this summer, she'd been ghosted by recruiters and hadn't received any offers.
"I was a little bit naive going into it, thinking I could do what I always do and depend on applying to as many places as I can," said Wandell. "It became pretty clear that this time is different."
The job market feels tougher than ever. Just ask anyone who's out of work or take a look at my LinkedIn feed. Over the past several months, it's been filled with posts from laid-off professionals recounting grueling job searches, many lasting over a year.
Headlines about the job market being "solid " genuinely get under my skin. They remind me that headline labor statistics aren't always reliable narrators.
Even if official unemployment figures appear relatively low, millions of Americans are wading through choppy emotional and financial waters. According to Daniel Zhao, lead economist at the career and job search site Glassdoor, the health of the job market is actually measured by people's ability to get a job.
With the economy on shaky ground, companies are pulling back on hiring, leaving job seekers in the lurch. Facing fierce competition for a shrinking pool of open positions, candidates are trying to master new strategies to get past AI screeners into the hands of a human recruiter. Some wait months for a response, only to be ghosted by HR departments.
"Once workers lose jobs, they're having a tougher time finding new ones," said Odeta Kushi, deputy chief economist at First American Financial Corporation.
Listening to these stories, I was left with a lot of questions. Why are so many qualified and talented workers getting the silent treatment? What is HR actually looking for? Should folks be using AI in their job search? Is the job search a universally miserable experience?
I spoke with several career specialists to gather the most straightforward advice for helping job seekers on their journey. I also compiled a list of free employment resources and upskilling platforms below.
1. Be choosy, not generic
Sending out hundreds of applications with the same resume might feel like the right approach but it's not the best use of your time.
"We find many job seekers in the market haphazardly applying to any and/or all jobs instead of targeting relevant ones," said Chad Sowash of the Chad and Cheese Podcast, which covers recruitment technology, talent management and workforce economics.
Instead of spending several hours applying to multiple jobs, use that time to tailor each resume toward the role you really want. Companies are becoming increasingly selective in their hiring practices so job seekers also need to be choosier about where they apply.
"Not all positions and hiring companies will be a fit so don't try to be all things to all people," Sowash said.
To narrow down your search, think about what you're looking for in terms of work environment and responsibilities, said Sam DeMase, career expert at ZipRecruiter. "Don't just throw spaghetti at the wall and see what sticks."
Identify the value that makes you an exceptional candidate. "If your resume is very generic and doesn't speak to your specific superpowers, you're not going to get as many hits as you would with a hyper-tailored resume," DeMase said.
2. Make your resume ATS friendly
When you apply to a job online, your resume likely won't go straight to a recruiter or hiring manager. Nearly all Fortune 500 companies use an applicant tracking system, or ATS, to process applications and dismiss candidates automatically.
As my CNET colleague pointed out in a 2023 story on resume robots, the ATS software scans applications for a specific percentage of matching keywords, typically 70% to 80%. If there's not a high match with the posting, your application probably won't make it to the next stage, regardless of your qualifications.
To create an ATS-friendly resume, read the job description thoroughly and note particular keywords, phrases or skills. If the requirements accurately align with your qualifications, add them to your resume using the same language. That said, don't go overboard. While keywords are important, stuffing your resume with too many can read as unnatural.
Jobscan, Skillsyncer and multiple other online platforms provide free resume scanning tools geared toward optimizing your application for ATS.
Zhao said resume keyword optimization isn't about "beating" the computer. It's about making sure recruiters and hiring managers see your skills and experience.
Once you have the right balance of keywords, simplify your formatting to make it clean and concise, which helps the ATS and recruiters review your resume. Avoid using fancy headers and footers, graphics or tables, which often get garbled by the computer software.
3. Be ready to jump on job openings
Set up multiple job alerts and be ready to act immediately on the openings you like the most. DeMase recommends being one of the first people to apply to the job posting so that your resume doesn't get pushed to a later round.
"Unfortunately, these jobs are getting posted and have more than 100 applicants within 48 hours or sooner," said DeMase. If you have multiple versions of your resume ready, you can adapt quickly.
Just because a posting is still up after several weeks doesn't mean the company is still reviewing applications or looking for new candidates.
4. Use AI as a tool, not a ghostwriter
In 2024, more than 50% of job seekers used AI to draft resumes and cover letters. While generative AI tools like ChatGPT can speed up the writing process, they tend to produce generic, impersonal content.
"One of the issues I see with job seekers who overly rely on AI is that their application ends up looking like everybody else's who is using AI as well," said Zhao.
To avoid the same formulaic responses, provide detailed prompts that emphasize the parts of your application that align with the job description and make your background and experience unique. For example, you can ask the chatbot to review your cover letter and suggest ways to make it more compelling based on your abilities and interests.
"It's important for people to think about how their resume distinguishes them, how their skill set, even if it's nontraditional, might give them a different perspective than other people in the candidate pool," Zhao said.
5. Don't sleep on networking
Even in today's digital age, networking remains incredibly powerful for landing a job, especially considering that many roles aren't advertised online but filled through referrals.
If you're new to networking, start reaching out to the people around you: family and friends, alumni and former co-workers. Ask them if they know anyone in a career field that interests you or works at a company you're curious about.
"Folks can go quiet after a layoff, because there's a deep sense of shame, particularly in our society, where so much of our identity is associated with our work and our productivity," said Lisa Countryman-Quiroz, CEO of JVS Bay Area, a workforce development nonprofit. "It's important to fight through that, tap into your network and let people know you're looking."
Instead of just requesting a job or connection, actively engage in conversations, ask thoughtful questions, share your own insights and look for ways to offer value, said DeMase. Sending out a handful of personalized emails will get you farther than dozens of generic copy-and-paste notes.
6. Build skills that help you stand out
Showcasing competitive skills like data analysis, digital collaboration and AI tool expertise is crucial in today's job market. Instead of prioritizing traditional credentials like education, 76% of employers put greater value on actual work experience and demonstrated abilities, even if you're self-taught.
"You can make yourself stand out by indicating the different things you've learned on your own and how that could apply to that employer," said Countryman-Quiroz.
Free online courses, such as LinkedIn Learning or IBM SkillsBuild, can help you learn valuable skills or even obtain official certification. Local colleges and community centers frequently provide low-cost courses on anything from digital marketing to insurance licensing.
If you've been unemployed for a long time, you can use courses and training to fill in the gaps on your resume, which shows that you're proactive and self-directed.
7. Brace yourself for ghosting
For many, the toughest part of job hunting is never hearing back. Though being ghosted by an employer or recruiter can feel incredibly personal, it's not a reflection of your skills or qualifications. Research from LinkedIn found that almost 40% of candidates say they're applying to more jobs than ever and hearing back less.
There are countless reasons why HR doesn't follow up: budget cuts, hiring freezes, internal shifts or too many applicants. You might never know the real reason.
You can send a polite follow-up email to the hiring manager to demonstrate your continued interest, which may prompt them to respond. But try not to blame yourself or spend too much time dissecting why you didn't hear back.
After being ghosted following multiple interviews, Wandell started The Job Ghosting Project, a list of anonymous stories from job seekers who've been ignored by companies. Within a week of posting the survey, Wandell received more than 500 submissions, with responses ranging from recent grads to high-level executives.
"The goal is really just to document these patterns, validate the job seekers and push for accountability in the hiring process," said Wandell.
8. Take interview prep seriously
Interview prep goes beyond knowing your resume and the role. You'll need to show why you want this specific job with this specific employer.
Start with research. Look at the company's recent news, press releases, social media and reviews. Understand their latest projects, challenges and competition.
Use the STAR method. Break down each requirement in the job description and connect it to a specific example from your experience. Practice structuring your answers using the STAR method (situation, task, action, result) to demonstrate your impact in a clear and concise way.
Practice, practice, practice. Say your interview answers out loud, not just in your head. If possible, do a practice interview with someone you trust and get honest feedback. That can help identify awkward phrasing and make you more confident during the real thing.
Prepare questions for the interviewer. Asking thoughtful questions of the hiring team shows your engagement and understanding of the role/company.
9. Be kind to yourself during the job search
It's common to feel discouraged, stressed and embarrassed when faced with rejection. "The job search is a slog and you have to make sure that you're doing it in a sustainable manner," said Zhao. "You can't just apply to 100 jobs every day because you'll burn yourself out."
Set clear boundaries for your job-hunting hours, schedule regular breaks and set up informal meetings to network. Focus on having a support system in place, especially with other people looking for work. Being in a group with people in the same situation can really "diminish the shame that so many feel around not being employed," said Countryman-Quiroz.
After joining a job-seeker support group during a previous layoff, Wandell started her own group this past year. It started with five people and it's now grown to 50 to 100 participants. "It's a space for people to vent but also to ask questions, network and brainstorm," said Wandell.

Amazon's AI-Powered AWS, Efficiency Gains, And Consumer Demand Fuel Bullish Q2 Outlook

(NASDAQ:AMZN) is poised to potentially outperform market expectations in its July 31 second-quarter earnings report, driven by a combination of robust U.S. retail sales, advantageous foreign exchange rates, and accelerating demand for its artificial intelligence-related services through Amazon Web Services (AWS). Strong consumer spending and ongoing efficiency gains in its e-commerce operations are also contributing to a positive outlook for the tech giant. Reinforcing this positive sentiment, Bank of America Securities analyst Justin Post maintained (NASDAQ:AMZN) with a Buy rating and raised the price forecast from $248 to $265. Post raised its second-quarter estimates for the company, citing stronger-than-expected U.S. retail data, favorable foreign exchange (FX) movements, and rising AI-related demand via Anthropic. The analyst forecasted second-quarter revenue of $164 billion, exceeding Wall Street's consensus of $162 expects Amazon Web Services (AWS) to grow 16.5% year-over-year, slightly below the first-quarter's 16.9% but in line with Street projections of 17%. However, Post noted that robust AI demand and accelerating AWS infrastructure investments will drive growth reacceleration in the second half of the year. The analyst projects $17.8 billion in second-quarter profit, above the consensus estimate of $17.0 billion and the high end of Amazon's own guidance of $17.5 billion. Key drivers include resilient consumer spending, signs of acceleration in e-commerce trends, and FX benefits, especially with the euro up 5% year-over-year (Y/Y) and 8% quarter-over-quarter (Q/Q) against the dollar, potentially delivering a 130bps FX tailwind vs. the Street's modest 30bps estimate, he noted. In North America Retail, aggregated BAC credit/debit card data and Bloomberg Second Measure point to a 4-point acceleration in sales growth versus the first quarter, Post noted. The analyst said this sets the stage for Amazon to beat Street expectations by over 2% in the region. International Retail could benefit from FX trends, as the Street models only offer a modest boost. Amazon's guidance for the third quarter is expected to range between $169 billion and $174 billion (vs. Street at $172.8 billion) with GAAP EBIT projected between $14.0 billion and $18.0 billion (Street at $19.4 billion), Post noted. He suggested Amazon's historical conservatism could result in cautious guidance, but if second-quarter results show substantial upside, the third-quarter outlook could surprise higher. Post also highlighted reports of AWS job cuts, which may support margin expansion in the second half. The analyst estimates second-quarter AWS operating margins at 36.0%, slightly above the consensus of 35.3%, though down 3.5 points from the first quarter due to higher stock-based compensation. He further noted that AWS capex spending is scaling rapidly, up 38 points Y/Y, now accounting for 70% of Amazon's capex, signaling a ramp in infrastructure buildout that should alleviate previous supply constraints and support future growth. Post said positives that could boost investor confidence included solid second-quarter retail performance from resilient consumer demand, potential third-quarter boost from a longer Prime Day, retail margin leverage from hiring freezes and cost discipline, AWS revenue acceleration tied to increasing AI and chip demand and improved operating efficiency and tax savings from the Big Beautiful Bill, which could add $6.4 billion in incremental cash tax benefits between 2025–2027. Despite trading at 13.4 times 2026 EV/EBITDA, Amazon remains below its 10-year average of 16.5 times, the analyst said, suggesting potential for multiple expansion if growth momentum holds. Upcoming results from Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) and Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) may also influence sentiment ahead of Amazon's report, Post noted. Post projected second-quarter revenue of $163.92 billion and EPS of $1.40. Price Action: AMZN stock is trading higher by 0.26% to $228.05 at last check Wednesday.

Trump's AI Action Plan aims to block chip exports to China but lacks key details

The Trump administration wants its AI technology to be considered an industry leader both on home soil and abroad. But it also doesn't want the U.S.'s AI prowess to empower or embolden a foreign adversary. That's quite the balance to strike. If President Trump's AI Action Plan, which was released on Wednesday, is any indicator, the administration seems to still be figuring out the right course of action to achieve those goals. '​​America currently is the global leader on data center construction, computing hardware performance, and models,' the plan stated. 'It is imperative that the United States leverage this advantage into an enduring global alliance, while preventing our adversaries from free-riding on our innovation and investment.' The plan mentions strengthening AI chip export controls through 'creative approaches' followed by a pair of policy recommendations. The first calls on government organizations, including the Department of Commerce and National Security Council, to work with the AI industry on chip location verification features. The second is a recommendation to establish an effort to figure out enforcement for potential chip export restrictions; notably, it mentions that while the U.S. and allies impose export controls on major systems required for chip manufacturing, there isn't a focus on many of the component sub-systems — a hint at where the administration wants the DOC to direct its attention. The AI Action plan also talks about how the U.S. will need to find alignment in this area with its global allies. 'America must impose strong export controls on sensitive technologies,' the plan states. 'We should encourage partners and allies to follow U.S. controls, and not backfill. If they do, America should use tools such as the Foreign Direct Product Rule and secondary tariffs to achieve greater international alignment.' The AI Action plan never gets into detail on exactly how it will achieve Al global alliances, coordinate with allies on export chip restrictions, or work with U.S.-based AI companies on chip location verification features. Instead, the AI Action plans lay out what foundational building blocks are required for future sustainable AI chip export guidelines, as opposed to policies implemented on top of existing guidelines. The upshot: chip export restrictions are going to take more time. And there's ample evidence, beyond the AP Action plan, to suggest it will. For instance, the Trump administration has contradicted itself multiple times on its export restriction strategy in the past few months — including just last week. In July, the administration gave semiconductor firms, like Nvidia and AMD, the green light to start selling AI chips they had developed for China, just months after rolling out licensing restrictions on the same AI chips that effectively pulled Nvidia out of the Chinese market. The administration also formally rescinded the Biden administration's AI Diffusion Rule in May, just days before it was supposed to go into effect. The AI Diffusion rule put a cap on how much AI computing capacity some countries were allowed to buy. The Trump administration is expected to sign multiple executive orders July 23. Whether these will contain detailed plans on how it will reach its goals is unclear. While the AI Action Plan talks at length about figuring out how to expand the U.S. AI market globally, while maintaining dominance, it's light on the specifics. Any executive order regarding chip export restrictions will likely be about getting the proper government departments together to figure out a path forward, as opposed to formal guidelines, quite yet.

Stacking Margins, Not Miles – The Growth Mindset Most Fleets Miss

Too many carriers are chasing the wrong scoreboard. They measure success by the number of miles they run, the number of loads they book, or how many trucks they have on the road. But here's the truth: more miles don't mean more money—and more loads can sometimes mean more losses. Real growth in this business doesn't come from working harder. It comes from working smarter. From stacking margins, not miles. If your strategy is built on chasing volume, you're on a hamster wheel. You might be busy. You might even look successful from the outside. But your profit and loss statement will eventually expose the truth. You're not building a business—you're burning fuel, time, and energy just to stay afloat. This article is about rewiring your mindset. It's about getting off the volume treadmill and focusing on the one thing that actually builds wealth in trucking: profit per mile. Not gross. Not rate per mile alone. Not how many loads you touch. Margin. That's the game. Why Most Fleets Get It Wrong from the Start Let's be real—most carriers start their business with a hustle mentality. They get a truck, find a dispatcher or hit the load boards, and try to keep that truck moving 6 or 7 days a week. They think the more they move, the more they'll make. And for a little while, that seems true. But here's what happens next: The fuel bill eats up half the revenue The driver gets burned out The maintenance costs pile up One bad load puts you in the red You're cash-flow negative, even though you're 'busy' Why? Because the model was never built to scale. It was built to run. But running without margin is running toward a cliff. Let's Talk About What Margin Really Means Margin isn't just what's left over. It's the purpose behind every mile you run. And it comes down to three things: 1. What You Book It ForAre you just accepting loads because they're available? Or are you choosing freight that fits your lane strategy, customer base, and pricing power? 2. What It Costs to MoveMost carriers don't know their cost per mile down to the penny. If you don't know your baseline, you can't improve your margin. You're negotiating blind. 3. How Efficiently You OperateDeadhead, dwell time, driver turnover, empty miles between loads—all of that cuts into your margin. Tight systems build profit. Loose ones bleed cash. Here's the kicker: you can make more profit moving 1,200 miles a week with strong margins than someone moving 3,000 miles with weak ones. But you've got to change how you think. The Dangerous Trap of Volume Thinking Let me show you how volume thinking hurts growing carriers: You Take Any LoadYour dispatcher sees a $3,000 load and jumps on it. It looks good. But it's 1,500 miles. It burns 250 gallons of fuel. The rate looks high, but after fuel, driver pay, tolls, and lost repositioning miles, your profit margin is paper thin. You Don't Control the LaneWhen you chase spot freight in random markets, you lose all leverage. Now you're not just chasing a load—you're chasing a way out of that load's destination. You lose margin on both ends. You Grow Without SystemsYou add trucks because your revenue looks big, but you don't have a process to monitor each unit's margin. Now you've multiplied your overhead and made your problems bigger—not better. You Burn Out Your TeamLong miles, inefficient planning, poor rest cycles—your drivers leave or disengage. And turnover kills margin more than anything else. The Power of Stacking Margins Now let's flip the script. Let's talk about what stacking margins looks like: Intentional Lane PlanningYou focus on short to mid-haul freight in repeatable lanes. You know your top customers and top regions. You can forecast fuel, time, and detention risk. That allows you to price with purpose. Profitable Load CombinationsInstead of just looking at a load in isolation, you think like a chess player. You ask: What's my next move after this? Maybe a $900 short haul tees you up for a $1,700 local move that gets you home early. Together, they create a $2.60 per mile average and minimize deadhead. That's margin stacking. Driver-Centric PlanningYou design schedules around efficiency, rest, and repeatability. The driver stays engaged, your turnover stays low, and your cost per mile stays consistent. Margin isn't just financial—it's operational. Customer-Focused StrategyYou shift from 'how do I fill the truck?' to 'how do I solve a shipper's problem?' That shift opens the door to higher rates, less competition, and consistent volume. Margin follows value. Real-World Margin Play: Two Fleets, Two Outcomes Fleet A runs 5 trucks, 3,000 miles per week each. Their rate per mile averages $2.10. Their operating cost is $1.80 per mile. Revenue per truck: $6,300 Cost: $5,400 Profit per truck: $900 Fleet B runs 5 trucks, but only 2,000 miles per week. Their rate per mile averages $2.60. Their cost per mile is $1.70 because of fewer miles, better lanes, and tighter planning. Revenue per truck: $5,200 Cost: $3,400 Profit per truck: $1,800 Same size fleet. Lower miles. Double the profit. Which fleet would you rather run? How to Shift Your Strategy Toward Margin 1. Know Your True Cost Per MileNot just fuel. Include insurance, maintenance, payroll, IFTA, subscriptions, everything. Break it down monthly, then weekly. Then compare it to what you're booking. 2. Evaluate Every Load by Margin, Not Just GrossBefore you accept a load, ask: What's my estimated profit after costs? If you're just looking at top-line revenue, you're playing a losing game. 3. Use Tools to See the Full PictureTrack lane profitability. Monitor deadhead. Build dashboards that show your average loaded vs empty miles, gross revenue vs margin, profit per hour. The data tells the truth—if you know how to read it. 4. Train Your Team to Think Like You DoIf your dispatcher only thinks about 'what pays the most,' you've already lost. Train them to plan ahead, look for backhauls, and evaluate full-trip margin. Incentivize margin, not miles. 5. Build Long-Term Shipper RelationshipsWhen you serve a consistent customer, you reduce risk, improve planning, and stabilize your revenue. That gives you leverage and lets you focus on efficiency instead of scrambling. Final Word The mindset that built your business—grind, hustle, stay moving—is not the mindset that will grow your business. Scaling in trucking isn't about booking more loads. It's about booking smarter loads. Loads that protect your bottom line, maximize your assets, and let you breathe. Stacking miles keeps you busy. Stacking margins builds wealth. So stop asking how many loads you can run this week. Start asking how much profit you can generate per load. That shift alone will take your fleet from surviving to scaling—without burning out your trucks, your drivers, or yourself. Let's get to work.
