Man, undervaluing my skills and experience is so holding me back from getting a great job. Sometimes I’ll see these awesome job listings with killer pay and benefits, but then I think, “There’s no way I’m qualified,” and don’t even bother applying. It’s like I’m shutting down my own chances before I even try.
Uh, therapy? Sounds like you’re dealing with some major self-esteem issues here. Undervaluing yourself isn’t just bad for job hunting—it’s gonna mess with your whole life.
I’d totally suggest seeing a therapist. I went through something similar, and therapy really helped me realize I was selling myself short. Once I worked through that, job hunting stopped feeling so overwhelming. For example, I found some awesome gigs on layboard https://layboard.in/vacancies/jobs-in-oman/speciality/plumber. I even started rejecting offers when I felt the conditions didn’t match my worth, which was a huge confidence boost.
