Hi there,

I’m Debstar. I am very much looking forward to connecting with you on Fridays and chatting about work related topics. At Ostara, I work with clients with a range of mental health issues to help them build their confidence and skills so they can return to work.

One of the challenges of preparing to work is maintaining your confidence and self esteem while job hunting. And the longer it takes, the higher the chance of your self-esteem taking a significant blow. If you have been there, your most likely know what I am talking about.

Today I will share tips and ideas to help, and would really like to hear your thoughts and ideas too.

One thing that I always say to my clients (and for me when I was looking for work) was to accept that you have good and bad days. Everyone has bad days so don’t beat yourself up.  

Do you agree with this? What else can you do to maintain your confidence during this time?
