If you are running the same playbook in 2025 to get a job that you ran in 2021, it probably won’t work. It’s different.

I hope that 2021 was your best year ever, despite the pandemic and all the challenges that came with it. Your 2021 balance sheet has both debits and credits. It's important to take a full account of the past year, avoiding the tendency to focus just on the difficulties or just on your accomplishments and good luck.
