The Sneaky Grip of Work Anxiety: A Recruiter's Story 🤔💼

The market's picking up, which is great! 🎉 

But it’s also brought a new challenge: 

A surge in junior-to-mid-level roles. 

While rewarding, these roles require me to work harder than ever to hit my targets. 💪

I wasn't even fully aware of my rising anxiety until dinner with friends last week.

🍽️ They noticed the telltale signs: 

- I was talking extremely fast

- I was getting frustrated with slow service at the restaurant and 

- I even snapped at a taxi driver for missing an exit! 😤🚖

My friends gently pointed out my unconscious stress or anxiety

I realised I'd been rushing myself because I wanted to do more 🔥 

Thanks to their insightful observations, I'm consciously pacing myself and trying to find a way to do more and efficiently 🧘‍♂️💖

This experience highlighted the importance of self-awareness. 

Have you ever been so focused on work that you didn't notice your own stress levels? 🤷‍♀️ 

If my friends did not point out, I would not be aware as I am really enjoying every moment of it.
