Stress management isn't just about understanding the problem—it's about actionable solutions.

Exercise, even a brief walk, reduces cortisol and boosts mood-enhancing endorphins.

Meditation and mindfulness, once seen as trendy, are now scientifically proven to rewire the brain for better stress handling.

Nutrition plays a surprising role; omega-3-rich foods like salmon can lower stress hormones.

Quality sleep, especially deep sleep, allows the brain to reset and repair.

Finally, don't underestimate the power of social support. Sharing your struggles with others can significantly lighten your mental load.

College can be immensely valuable for those pursuing fields that require formal credentials and rigorous training. However, with the raise of blended/bootcamp education and significant financial burden of traditional degrees, it's critical to weigh the costs against the potential benefits.

The traditional 5-6 years of studying one core subject makes me a bit worried these days due to the speed of change in the current job market.

Ultimately, education should be a strategic choice, not an automatic one.

Well, yes and no. Most of the cover letters I've seen are too general and don't add any value.

But it seems (tech) companies still use them and it might work for candidates with less obvious experience to at least try to get the first interview.

Your resume is actually fairly good, compared to many other resumes. However, it could still be stronger.

Most importantly, you could make your resume more accomplishment-oriented. You should take each job and ask yourself, "What are my 3-5 biggest accomplishments?” These should form the bullets of your resume.

As much as possible, quantify your accomplishments. How much money did you make for your company? How much time did you save your team? By how much did you improve customer retention? An estimation is okay here.
