Job Search
Job hunting is not one task, it is six months of small steps no one sees. Between the CV and a first interview sit a dozen invisible moves where motivation quietly dies. The steps below make the process visible.

About this visual support
The executive challenge of job hunting is holding together a process where feedback arrives in weeks, or never. For an older teen already wrestling with planning, a single unanswered email can weigh as much as ten rejections. The hardest part is not sending the application, it is keeping going on day eight with no reply.
With visual support, every phase gets its own slot: writing the CV, finding listings, tailoring the cover letter, sending, waiting, following up, preparing for interview. When each move sits as its own step, the teenager does not have to hold the whole map in mind at once. Today shrinks down to one tile.
A concrete tip: build a step for rejection itself. Giving rejection a place in the flow, with a defined next action after it, turns it into a station rather than the end of the road. In the Routined app you can build a recurring weekly structure where three focused 25-minute search sessions become as visible as any other routine. Two-week free trial.
