#237) Mental Health for Job Seekers | Kyle Elliott

Mental health is such an important issue because let’s be honest, the job search is tough. As a major transition, it can be one of the most stressful parts of life, and too many people are putting the focus on landing that next dream job and not enough focus on themselves.
