Throw traditional jobhunting methods out the window and get realistic
"In downtimes, you don't have much control over the opportunities that are presented to you, so following your passion is bullshᵒt. My experience after graduating in 2007 was like riding on a raft and grabbing any opportunities within reach. I held on to the ones that were interesting and used them to pull myself along. And I used the miserable ones to launch myself in a new direction. As I have floated down the river, I have collected a tonne of ideas and experiences that I carry with me and that makes me very good at my job, even if it's a million miles away from where I started."
Sasha S., strategy director at a marketing agency
