Have you ever sent out a job application and felt like it vanished into a black hole? You might have spent hours crafting a cover letter and refining your resume, hit submit… Then… Silence.

If you’re lucky you might get a generic rejection letter sent from a ‘no reply’ email in the early hours of the morning. Or maybe you get a similar one 3-4 months later when the role has been filled. Or, most often, you are ghosted. Nothing. Just the sound of crickets chirping in your job-hunting world.
