What three months of job hunting taught me about product thinking

Placeholder post — replace with your real story. Here's a shape that tends to work for this kind of entry: open with a specific, honest moment (a rejection email, an interview question that stumped you), not a general statement about "the job market."

What I got wrong first

Be concrete about the mistake. "I applied to fifty jobs with the same resume" is a real sentence. "I wasn't targeted enough in my approach" is not.

The most honest sentence in a post like this is usually the one you're slightly embarrassed to publish.

What changed

Walk through the shift — a person you talked to, a reframe that clicked, a small experiment that worked. This is the part readers actually remember.

Where I'm at now

End somewhere honest, not necessarily resolved. It's fine to close on "still figuring this part out" — it reads as more credible than a tidy bow.
