I often experience anxiety about not being able to secure a job after I graduate (graduation is in half a year). I consistently doubt my skills and capabilities. Can anyone relate? I wonder if it’s a personal struggle or a shared experience.
here's something that will help no matter what: practice interviewing. ask a friend and let them ask you tough questions. the best thing about it: you'll cringe, but you'll get better and more concise at describing yourself, and through this, more confident in your abilities!
This is such a concrete suggestion! You’re right, I do feel cringe to promote myself, thinking it’s inappropriate that I somehow feel conceited haha. I’ll definitely practice more and eventually become comfortable telling people what I’m great at
It always feels cringy to say something you don't fully believe, so when you take the time to practise stressful scenarios, you'll slowly but surely get unshakeable conviction of your strengths while realizing and accepting your weaknesses. And then you can properly address them!
