Another tip from Hays is to "know your story" or your unique selling proposition, which differentiates you from the other job-seekers. It's good to practise mock questions, but it's like buying a house - if something tells you it's not right, it's not right." And if you're having trouble finding the right role, you may want to consider temporary or contract roles, which are becoming the "new normal" in workplaces. I know friends who choose jobs by how close they are to their ferry ride. "Thinking about my future stopped me from being so burnt out and highlighted it was the right time for change."
