Average job search in 2026 takes 3-4 months. Somewhere around month two, most people start questioning themselves.
I recorded 5 episodes of a podcast called "Sborka" (Russian for "getting it together"). Each one is about 15 minutes and covers one specific pain point:
1. Why it's so hard to even start looking
Procrastination, fear of rejection, the "not ready yet" loop.
2. Writing a resume that actually gets read
Most resumes get 6 seconds. Here's how to survive those 6 seconds.
3. Interviews without the panic spiral
Impostor syndrome, blank mind, that fear of unexpected questions.
4. Dealing with rejection fatigue
How to keep going when it feels pointless.
5. Salary negotiation
You got the offer. Now don't undersell yourself.
It's in Russian, but if you have Russian-speaking friends in tech who are job hunting, send them this.
Available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Deezer, Pocket Casts.
