the job search goes ever on

Way back in January, I made two not-resolutions for the year (I call them this so that they aren't breakable, because they are more guidelines or things I should like to do, and some years I manage them, and some years I don't). The first was to study for and take the EIT, which since I passed it (huzzah!) I never have to worry about again. The second was to apply for more jobs. So far, I don't think I've done that great at keeping up with applying for jobs. Things keep coming up (first it was the EIT, then it was my short stays (which I need to finish, something else to work on soon), then I got sick, and so on). I'm going to try to, for the foreseeable future, spend two nights a week looking for and applying for jobs. I'll see how this goes for a couple of weeks, and then revise my plans accordingly. My problem so far has been that I'm not consistent in looking for and applying for jobs. I'll apply for a whole parcel of them, get burned out, and then go a while before I can work up the nerve to do it again. I'm going for consistency now. Two nights a week seems doable.

Also, I'm going to spruce up my resume a bit. I'm not going to completely redo it, but I'll try to make it sound better and perhaps add a few things and move a few things, and certainly add a bit about the EIT in my resume and cover letter. That'll help my confidence, if nothing else.
