The Pandemic Woes: How to Apply for Jobs?

What to do?

The pandemic has been definitely very rough on us in a lot of ways and facing them have been nothing but emotionally and physically draining. But, of course, the challenges that we have been facing and we have faced till now surely have some permanent solutions. Let's try and resolve them.

1) The virus infection- Catching the virus has been altogether a different and difficult experience because it attacks the body in such a way that it makes it weak and drained. Moreover, it requires distancing with your loved ones for a long time so that the virus does not spread over which is obviously difficult. 

The solution- Just be very careful about where you go or what you touch as the virus may travel through any possible surface. Make sure you do not touch your face when you're outside and you have a mask on all the time. Do not make contact with any person as they might be unknown carriers. Keep sanitizing yourself and whatever comes to your home, clean it thoroughly as any item can be a virus carrier.

2) The lockdown: Lockdown in the beginning phase of the outbreak was the biggest challenge as it required to stay indoors until absolutely necessary which obviously increased the anxiety levels because of all the free time we gained. Going outside even for a walk can prove to be helpful and refreshing..but sticking to a particular place and doing things in a confined spaces make us mentally and emotionally weak.

The solution- Pick a hobby or some long lost talent that you surrendered just to spend the extra time on your sleeves. Make yourself busy with anything you find interesting as it will enable you to have productive time and a well maintained routine. This might give you a fresh perspective towards life as you might discover some new talents and you will have time to work on things that you really like.

3) The unemployment - Unemployment has been a serious issue during these times as people are loosing businesses because of the lockdown..there are so many people who have fired their employees due to lack of work and lack of funds for their salaries..in fact, many people have committed suicide because they had nothing..no money to even fend for themselves during the pandemic. 

The solution- Just because you have lost one job, doesn't mean that you cannot get another..create an impressive CV or make a LinkedIn profile and to make your profile look more plausible to gain the attention of potential recruiters. Surely, you will be able to get good job opportunities.

4) The social distancing: Keeping in the population in mind, social distancing norms were a little hard to follow and imply..people usually are in the habit of not maintaining a decent distance in their daily lives..but taught us to maintain a distance of at least 6 meters...yet, some people are stringent enough to be absolutely careless about this part.

The Solution- Levying fines and deploying authority at places can prove to be beneficial as some people learn things the hard way..there are many people that are wary of rules so, they have to be taught important lessons the difficult way.

The pandemic might be a challenging time, but there is a solution to everything. This time has dawned upon all of us and fighting these dark times with full zeal and kindness is the way to deal with this situation.
