Landing your first job is a project. Treat it like one with clear weekly goals.
Week 1: Foundations
Polish your CV, shortlist 10 remote roles that fit your skills, and set up a quiet, well-lit spot for online interviews.
Week 2: Apply with intent
Aim for 5 quality, tailored applications per day rather than 50 generic ones.
Week 3: Network
Reach out to alumni on LinkedIn, attend career fairs and ask for informational chats.
Week 4: Interview & negotiate
Practise common questions, research salaries and evaluate offers on the total package, not just basic pay.
