Exhausted and Empty

I am exhausted and mentally/emotionally empty from working a grueling job at a toxic company all day, then come home to apply for jobs. I tailor my resume for each job.

I'm also getting caught up on my CPE hours as a CPA.

Any advice?

Tailoring resumes for each application while doing CPE is a lot, I did that for months and it just burns you out completely

Try batch applying one day per week with a solid template, most ATS systems don't even check the fancy customizations anyway

Actually, as real advice (swear I'm not an advertisement).

Jobright is a cool website that helps automate the ATS portion, so that might be good for you. Helps bring 5 hours to more like 1 hour.
