5 tips on how to reduce job hunt stress

We know that finding a new job can be a stressful process - but it doesn’t have to be! Follow these steps and narrow down your search with our expert insight, advice and resources.


1.Use the resources available to you


At Pillar, we want to make your job search as simple as possible. That’s why we’ve categorised our current vacancies by role type so you can jump straight to what you’re looking for. If you can’t find what you’re after, get in touch with our team who will use their magic powers to locate a role that works for you.


2. Don’t overdo it


Although researching new opportunities is an exciting process, it can quickly become draining if you’re spending all hours of the day writing and re-writing cover letters, researching companies and doom scrolling on LinkedIn.


Be strict with yourself about taking regular breaks, and set a time limit for how long you spend on each application. This will help mitigate the risk of burnout and ensure that you are coming across as your best self in the application/initial communications.


When applying for a job through Pillar, our expert consultants will help you navigate the complex world of job applications and match you with a role that aligns with your skills and experience.


3. Ask for help


Our expert consultants are here to offer confidential career advice if you’re feeling a little bewildered by the complex market that is the built environment. We won’t just force you into a role that happens to be live, but we will take the time to understand your long term career plan and find something that suits your needs.


4. Narrow it down


You can search our latest vacancies by keyword or location so you don’t have to waste hours researching the perfect role on Google. Again, not all our vacancies are listed online so do make sure to contact our team if you can’t find exactly what you’re looking for.


5. Stick to your guns


Don’t lose sight of your career goals and take the first role that comes along, make sure it’s something you can really see yourself enjoying and progressing in. This also means being honest with us about what you want - we’re here to help after all!




Overall, having the helping hand of a recruitment agency can help ease the pressure of embarking on the job hunt alone and offer you continued support and advice throughout. Register with us now today and start making the most of our resources!
