    Miscellaneous Planning Thinking

    I recently wrapped up my finance job search, which spanned from July 2025 to October 2026. To keep track of my progress, I created a visual representation of my journey, highlighting the various applications I submitted, interviews I attended, and the overall timeline of my search. I also shared a censored version of my resume for context, as I believe it might help others in similar situations. Some folks have asked about the tools I used to create the chart, and I'm happy to share that information with anyone interested. Overall, it's been a challenging yet enlightening experience.

    Applied to a Job Feeling Planning Thinking

    I spent nearly a year looking for a job in finance, from July 2025 to June 2026. It was a long and challenging journey, marked by a total of 6 rounds of interviews for one position, only to face rejection in the end. I found it frustrating that after so many interviews, the company still couldn't make a decision. During this time, I submitted around 150 applications, but only managed to secure 8 interviews, none of which went beyond two rounds. I understand that my target roles might be less common, but it still feels disheartening. I'm trying to stay positive and keep the faith as I continue my search.
