Who Do You Blame In The Job Search

Who Do You Blame In The Job Search This is a fascinating read: Are You Blaming Self for Being Unemployed? Heres my comment to Alex, on LinkedIn where he posted a link to his blog: I talked to Ofer, and have heard a lot about him from Susan P Joyce. Great guy. I definitely blamed myself for more than I should have during my job search. what helped was going to job clubs meeting people who were better (more qualified) than I was, and learning about their story. I figured out that it wasnt me it was circumstance. No one is immune. Im not suggesting you should blame one or the other, but I know that many of you are blaming yourself. Sometimes that blame is well-placed.  But we need to move past the blame and get to a point where we can be functional job seekers.
