Job Hunting in 2025: What No One Tells You But Should

OneUp Project

I finally did it — I GOT A JOB. After months of searching in one of the toughest markets we've seen in years, I’m walking you through exactly what I did to land a role I’m excited about (and how I didn’t settle just to survive). From the raw reality of endless applications (you know the vibe) to the practical steps that moved the needle, this is everything I wish I’d heard at the start of my job hunt!
What we discussed:

• What the job market is actually like right now (stats + stories)
• The truth behind 50+ applications and only a few real leads
• How a Notion portfolio and LinkedIn overhaul changed the game
• The difference between sending a CV and building a presence
• Strategic vs. scattergun applications — what worked best
• The income goal I set and how I stuck to it (even when it felt risky)
• How building community sped up the process — and kept me sane
