I’m after a professional job anywhere in the field of helping people. I’m mid 40s, when I was last job hunting it was really different.

How the fuck do I start?

    It’s a shitshow quite frankly and it feels really degrading, so be prepared to test the limits of your mental fortitude. Unfortunately, it really is a case of apply to as many places as possible, get ghosted by 90+% of them until you eventually get something. Be prepared for it to take a while. My friend has been looking for over a year now, and it is just brutal. Not what you wanted to hear, I’m sure, but worth knowing now before you go in.
