Have you tried using an alternating schedule for conducting your job search? Rather than trying to limit your job search to the same exact time and weekday in your weekly routine, you should try using a variable job search timetable instead, as you may see better results at a different time of day than usual. Consider the fact that some companies may post new job listings on certain weekdays or within a specific time window, and also the fact that other companies post them immediately as soon as they come up. If you limit yourself to a rigid job hunting schedule, you might miss out on an exciting job opening because it was published at a time when you were not looking! Try using a staggered schedule to browse job listings, and not only will you be able to catch new openings that you would have missed otherwise, but you will also find your new schedule to be a refreshing change of pace! After all, why should looking for a job be a dreadful task filled with monotony?! When you find job searching itself more fun and refreshing, you are more likely to present a more enthusiastic side of yourself in your next interview which could be just the ticket to landing your next dream job!
