The remote job secret hiring managers don’t tell you:

• Why great resumes get skipped before anyone reads them

• The free tool that shows what yours is missing (in seconds)

• 55 fresh remote jobs, updated this week

“Congratulations! We’re excited to offer you the position”

Every candidate hopes for that email. But long before it’s sent, there’s a quieter moment most people never see: the moment a hiring manager decides whether to read your resume at all.

Here’s how that moment usually goes. When a role opens, applications come in fast, so the hiring manager doesn’t read them one by one. They go into the applicant tracking system, search for the job title and the one or two tools the team can’t work without, and start with whoever comes up.

If your resume says “this key words” and the hiring manager searched for “that key words” you simply don’t appear. They haven’t rejected you. They just never saw you. To you, though, that silence feels exactly like a no, and after enough of them it’s easy to start doubting your experience.

I’ve worked in HR for more than 11 years. I see that strong candidates with the right background sit at the bottom of the pile, not because they can’t do the job, but because their resume describes it in different words than the employer used.

Most of the time, your experience isn’t the problem. Your words are, at least on the first screen round.

The fix is to describe what you’ve done in the employer’s language, and that’s exactly why I built the free Resume Keyword Checker. You paste in the job post and your resume, and within seconds it shows your match score, the must-have keywords you’re missing, and how well you cover each requirement.

That’s why I built the Resume Keyword Checker.

How it works

Paste the job post and your resume, then click “Check my resume.” In seconds you get:

• A match score for this job

• The must-have keywords you’re missing, most important first

• A line-by-line check of every requirement: covered, partly, or missing

Under 50% means your resume reads like it’s for a different job. 75% and up is strong. Don’t chase 100%, though. Recruiters notice a copy-paste resume.

It’s free, no sign-up, and nothing you paste is saved. It’s a keyword guide, not an official ATS score, since every company sets up its system differently.

Before you apply

1. Fix the must-haves first, only the ones that are true for you.

2. Use their exact words. “Employee onboarding,” not just “new hire setup.”

3. Put keywords in your summary, skills and bullets, then run it again.

Ten minutes per job. That’s the difference between the bottom of the pile and the top of the search.

• Why Q4 is one of the best times to job search

• Where hiring is strongest right now

• 4 moves to make before December

• Remote Job Board is ready for you

  Subscribe now

Every year around this time, I hear the same thing from job seekers: “I’ll wait until January. Nobody hires during the holidays.”

I get why people believe that. But I’ve worked in HR for 11 years in multinational company. From where I sit, October isn’t a quiet month. It’s one of the busiest.

What the numbers say this quarter

More than 6,000 U.S. employers report a Q4 2026 hiring outlook of 36%. That's the share planning to hire minus the share planning to cut. Globally, 43% of employers plan to add staff this quarter, and only 14% expect cuts.

One honest caveat: this survey measures plans, not job offers. Plans change. But it’s the opposite of “nobody’s hiring.”

Why Q4 moves faster than people think

Here’s what’s going on behind the scenes at a lot of companies.

Next year’s headcount is being decided right now. Managers who want a role approved for January are making their case in October and November.

Some budgets end on December 31. If a manager has an approved role that’s still open, many would rather fill it this year than risk losing it when the new budget comes in.

Plenty of candidates also pause for the holidays. That doesn’t guarantee less competition for every role, but it helps.

The catch is December. Decision-makers take time off, and some offers slide into January. So your real window is now through early December.

Where the hiring is strongest

Globally, finance and insurance and construction and real estate lead hiring plans this quarter, both at 36%, with the information sector close behind at 35%.

Here’s the part most people miss: those companies don’t only hire specialists. They need HR, payroll, recruiting, admin, and customer support people too.

And nearly two-thirds of employers say they’re hiring because the skills they need are changing. In ManpowerGroup’s tech hiring survey, professionalism, critical thinking, and adaptability ranked above AI literacy. Employers want people who can think and handle change, not just people who know the latest tool.

↓↓↓↓↓

What I’d do this week

1. Apply this month. Not “after Thanksgiving.” Interviews that start in October can turn into offers before the holiday slowdown.

2. Search by job function plus industry. An insurance or construction company might never show up when you search “remote HR.” Try “payroll specialist insurance” or “recruiter construction.”

3. Put one human-skill example near the top of your resume. Skip “strong communicator.” Show it instead, with a real number from your own work, like how many employee questions you handled a week, across how many countries.

4. Ask about timing in interviews. “Are you hoping to have someone start this year, or in Q1?” The answer tells you how hard to follow up, and whether a quiet December means no or just “after the holidays.”

A nor'easter in September? That almost never happens. And it's still going, with more rain today and the storm hanging around into Monday. Flights canceled. Ferries stopped. Thousands of homes without power. The city is asking people to stay off the roads.

I looked at this picture this morning and smiled.

Sure, it's cute. It's funny. But that's not why it stuck with me.

It made me think about how lucky you are if you’re at home right now and still getting paid.

No driving through flooded streets. No standing at a bus stop in the rain. No sitting in traffic for an hour because your boss needs you at your desk by 9.

Too hot, too cold, too wet, it doesn’t matter. You decide when you go outside. Your job doesn’t decide it for you.

That’s what remote work really buys you. Not the pajamas. The choice.

Now picture the other version of today. The alarm goes off. You check the weather. You check the roads. You go anyway, because you have to.

If that’s your life right now, I get it. And I want you to know it doesn’t have to stay that way.

I’ve been working remotely since 2021. Since then, I’ve been helping other people do the same:

Landing remote jobs and building extra income from the internet.

It’s not magic.

And it’s not only for tech people.

It’s knowing where to look, what to apply for, and what to skip.

So tell me honestly. Who here wants that?

If you want it but don't know where to start, follow Humamaria, and I'll show you how, one week at a time.

Right now, in California, thousands of state employees are bracing. That’s the day Governor Newsom’s mandate kicks in, forcing most state workers back into the office four days a week. After years of proving they could do the job just fine from home. Unions are protesting. Commuters are dreading the return of 90-minute drives. Office parking lots that emptied out years ago are about to fill back up, whether people are ready or not.

It’s not just California. Across the U.S. and beyond, big-name companies have spent the last year quietly tightening the leash, five-day mandates, “lead by example” policies for managers, downtown-revitalization arguments dressed up as culture initiatives. For a lot of people, the flexibility they rebuilt their whole lives around is getting clawed back.

But here’s the other story: while one door is closing, plenty of others are wide open. Companies are still hiring fully remote, real roles, real salaries, zero commute. You just have to know where to look.

Here is the list of jobs that we are hiring:

Because remote work isn’t just a job location. It’s a long-term lifestyle decision. And the smallest actions you take today quietly shape how free, stable, and fulfilled your future work life will feel.

Today might be the day you stop casually scrolling job boards and start intentionally preparing. Updating your CV so it speaks the language of remote teams. Removing vague bullet points and replacing them with clear outcomes, tools you’ve used, and problems you’ve solved independently.

➔ Your future self will thank you when recruiters instantly “get” your value without needing an explanation.

Today might be the day you finally build proof. Not just saying you can work remotely, but showing it. A portfolio, a Notion page, a GitHub repo, a case study, a content sample, a process doc - something that demonstrates you can manage your time, communicate clearly, and deliver without being micromanaged.

➔ Future-you will be grateful when you’re chosen over someone who only said they were “self-motivated.”

Today might be the day you fix your online presence. Cleaning up LinkedIn. Writing a headline that doesn’t sound like everyone else’s. Sharing one thoughtful post about your work, your learning, or your perspective on remote work. You don’t need to go viral. You need to be visible and credible.

➔ Your future self will thank you when opportunities start finding you.

Today might be the day you learn one tool that remote teams actually use. Not everything. Just one. Slack workflows, async communication, project management tools, documentation habits, time zone collaboration. These skills compound.

➔ Future-you will thank you when onboarding feels easy instead of overwhelming.

Today might also be the day you set boundaries early. Designing a routine that protects your energy. Learning how to separate work from life even when they happen in the same space. Remote work rewards discipline and clarity and punishes burnout. ➔ Your future self will deeply thank you for choosing sustainability over hustle.

Remote jobs don’t usually go to the most talented person. They go to the most prepared one. The person who understood that freedom is built, not granted.

So do one thing today.

Just one. Polish, learn, document, apply, or share. Small steps taken consistently turn into location freedom, time autonomy, and work that fits your life.

Your future self is watching and quietly hoping you start today.

And if you want to take action right now.

I have a FREE list of remote jobs ready for you (of course, no spam). ➔ here

You know what? most of us spend today waiting for “the right moment.” But the right moment isn’t coming. It’s created, one small step at a time. Start today. Your future self is already watching.

Reply to me, and I’ll guide you to find the right direction. With 11 years in HR and services, including 4 years working remotely in global HR, I have something for you, so you don’t just search, you move with confidence. Your future self will thank you.

Sitting down to write these words makes me feel both happy and emotional, thinking about everything that happened in my life throughout 2025. It wasn’t easy. It wasn’t perfect. But it was beautiful in its own way, my way. Lol

Share

To wrap it all up in one word, I choose “grateful.”

Grateful for new opportunities to officially start life in a new country 🇺🇸

Grateful for a PR (permanent resident card) process that was quick and smooth, just 3.5 months from submission, something I truly did not take for granted. I am deeply appreciative of the people and teams who reviewed our case and interviewed us.

Grateful for my husband and my big family across the U.S. 🇺🇸, Canada 🇨🇦, and Vietnam 🇻🇳, always there to love, support, and share with us without conditions.

Grateful for new ideas and ambitions, and the courage to slowly step away from remote jobs to explore a new path of my own.

Grateful for moments of weakness, because they remind me that I am still human, allowed to feel, to make mistakes, to learn, and to grow.

Grateful for the people who support me quietly, those who may never comment or speak up, but are always there, watching, believing, and sending silent encouragement.

Grateful for the trust people have placed in me through 1:1 coaching. Your stories, openness, and belief in my guidance mean more to me than you know.

Grateful for clients and candidates who have come back to me with questions, referrals, and new projects in different ways. The world is a circle, paths cross again, sometimes quietly, sometimes unexpectedly.

Grateful for all sources of income, big or small, that allow me to live, learn, create, and continue this journey with dignity and independence.

Grateful for patience with life, with timing, and with myself.

Grateful for the quiet days that taught me growth doesn’t always look loud.

Grateful for everything that didn’t work out, because it gently redirected me toward what is more aligned.

I’m not rushing.
I’m not chasing shortcuts.
I’m building slowly, honestly, intentionally, and with heart.

And for that… I am truly grateful.

And for you, I hope you can trust the process. It may feel slow or fast at times, but it works if you don’t give up.

As we step into 2026

a year predicted to be even more challenging, faster-moving, and full of changes. I wish you clarity, resilience, and the courage to stay true to your own pace. May you move forward with trust, strength, and belief in yourself, no matter how the world shifts around you.

Yeah, me too. And I bet the result was... underwhelming.

Generic. Boring. Nothing special.

Here’s why that happens and more importantly, how to actually use AI to land remote jobs in 2026

Why Your Current Approach Isn’t Working

Landing a remote job today is tough. Really tough.

Think about it: When a company posts a remote position, they’re not just competing with people in one city. They’re getting applications from everywhere. Hundreds of resumes for a single job.

Your resume needs to shine. But when you just tell ChatGPT “rewrite my resume,” the AI is basically working blind. It doesn’t know:

• What remote job you’re after

• What you’ve actually accomplished

• Who’s reading your resume (hint: it’s robots first, humans second)

• What style or tone you need

So you get back something that’s... fine. But fine doesn’t get you interviews.

Here’s what you actually need:

✅ A resume that passes robot screeners (called ATS systems)
✅ Keywords that remote companies look for
✅ Smart ChatGPT prompts that give you custom results
✅ Real numbers showing what you’ve achieved
✅ Clean formatting that works for everyone

Let me show you exactly how to do this.

The “Rewrite My Resume” Problem

When you ask ChatGPT to “rewrite my resume” without details, here’s what goes wrong:

The AI doesn’t know:

• Which job you want

• What you’re good at

• What numbers prove your success

• How to format it properly

So you get:

• Vague, boring language

• Missing remote work skills (like “works well on Zoom” or “manages time independently”)

• A resume that robot screeners reject

• Nothing that matches the actual job

Pro tip: Think of ChatGPT like a really smart assistant. The more specific you are, the better help you get.

The Secret Formula: 4 Parts to a Perfect AI Prompt

Want ChatGPT to actually help? Use these four ingredients every time:

1. Tell AI Who It Is

Start with: “You are a professional career coach who specializes in remote jobs.”

This makes the AI write like an expert, not just any random person.

2. Explain the Task

Be specific: “Rewrite my resume to highlight skills for remote HR jobs.”

Not just “make it better.” Tell it what to make better.

3. Give Context

Share the details: “I have 5 years of HR experience in different countries. I’m applying for a remote HR manager role at an international company.”

The more the AI knows about you, the better it can help.

4. Define the Format

Spell it out: “Make it 1 page, easy for robots to read, with bullet points, professional tone, and focus on remote work skills. Put a summary at the top.”

This ensures you get exactly what you need.

Real Example: Before and After

Bad Prompt:
“Rewrite my resume for a remote HR manager position.”

Good Prompt:

You are a professional HR career consultant.
Rewrite my resume for a remote HR manager role in a global company.
Include:
- Summary at the top emphasizing 5+ years of HR operations experience across multiple countries
- Bullet points highlighting achievements with metrics (e.g., reduced onboarding time by 20%)

- Keywords that robots look for
- Concise, professional tone, 1-page format

What You Get:

Professional Summary:
Experienced HR operations manager with 5+ years supporting global teams. Skilled in virtual collaboration, remote onboarding, and HR strategy execution across multiple countries.

See the difference? The second one is specific, has real numbers, and focuses on remote work skills. The first one would give you generic fluff.

5 Tips to Make Your AI Resume Even Better

1. Be Super Specific

Don’t say: “Rewrite my resume”
Do say: “Rewrite my resume for a remote HR manager role, emphasizing global experience, robot-friendly keywords, and remote work skills”

2. Set Clear Rules

Tell ChatGPT:

• Keep it to 1 page (or 2 pages max)

• Use bullet points only

• Start each bullet with an action word (like “managed,” “created,” “reduced”)

3. Ask It to Improve

If the first result isn’t perfect, ask ChatGPT to:

• Make it shorter

• Add more numbers and results

• Customize it for a specific company

4. Request Extra Sections

Ask for:

• A professional summary at the top

• A skills section

• A list of tools and software you know (especially remote work tools)

5. Check for Robot-Friendliness

Copy keywords from the job description and ask ChatGPT to include them. This helps your resume pass the robot screeners that companies use.

Don’t Stop at the Resume

Using AI for your resume is just the start. Here’s what else you need:

✅ Write a strong cover letter using the same prompting tricks
✅ Proofread everything for grammar and clarity
✅ Add unique achievements that weren’t in your original prompt

Remember: AI is your assistant, not your replacement. Use it to save time and get better results, but add your personal touch to stand out.

The Bottom Line

Saying “rewrite my resume” won’t cut it anymore.

To land a remote job in 2026, your resume needs to be clear, relevant, and full of real achievements.

With the right prompts:

• AI becomes your secret weapon for creating great resumes

• You save hours while making professional, customized resumes

• You get more interviews in the competitive remote job market

Take a few minutes to write better prompts, tell the AI the role, goal, context, and format you want. Your job search will completely change.

Nếu có nghĩ, thì chắc là mai thích ăn gì, nấu gì cho ngon đây ta.

Vậy thôi đó.

Ngày trước, đã quen với cuồng quay công việc. Phải làm mới thấy vui, phải làm mới thấy mình có giá trị, càng làm nhiều càng có năng lượng.

Nếu dừng lại, đầu óc lại suy nghĩ lung tung, dẫn tới trầm cảm, sức khoẻ đi xuống. Thể hiện rõ nhất là lúc mình làm việc remote trong thời Covid.

Từ ngày mình dừng lại một nhịp, bớt so sánh và mong cầu về vật chất thì cuộc sống lại dễ thở hơn.

Ngộ cái là có thêm cơ hội mới mở ra.

Nếu trên con đường bắt đầu học hay làm điều gì mới, kiệt sức quá, mình khuyên bạn nên dừng lại. Luôn đặt sức khoẻ lên trên hết mọi việc.

Bởi tinh thần, sức khoẻ tốt, mọi thứ tự nhiên sẽ suôn dòng và thuận lợi hơn.

Tuy vậy, dừng lâu quá sẽ làm bạn lười và quay lại vùng an toàn. Để tránh phải can đảm thêm lần nữa, hãy luyện cho mình thói quen gì đó mà mỗi ngày bạn làm đều đặn. Không chia sẻ cũng được, miễn là đừng để quá lâu.

Còn mình thì lười post, bởi mỗi bài viết tuỳ cảm xúc mình mới chia sẻ. Cái nào không đúng cảm xúc hiện tại, giống như thích mặc bộ đồ này nhưng bắt mặc bộ đồ khác. Cảm giác không dễ chịu cho mấy.

Đây là 69 bài viết mình viết chưa hoàn tất 100%, nhưng cũng cỡ 60-70%.

Lưu đó, để tạo content bank, một ngày hứng lấy ra xài sau vậy.

Còn giờ thì ôm cục ấm ngủ nào!

Và nếu bạn đang loay hoay tìm công việc remote, hay bắt đầu sự nghiệp. Mình có thể giúp bạn ở đây.

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Đúng ngày này năm ngoái, 06.10.2024.

Sau chuyến bay dài từ Việt Nam về Mỹ, cộng thêm 2 tiếng đồng hồ giữ lại ở khu an ninh với đủ thứ câu hỏi trên đời, hai đứa mình cuối cùng cũng nhập cảnh thành công.

Việc đầu tiên sau khi đặt hành lý xuống là đến nhà thờ.

Trong ánh nắng mùa thu dịu nhẹ hôm ấy. Hai đứa ngồi bên nhau, cảm ơn vì mọi chuyện diễn ra tốt đẹp. Cảm ơn vì sau bao nhiêu thử thách của cuộc đời, anh và mình đã tìm được nhau, hai mảnh ghép không thể nào hoàn hảo hơn.

Những giọt nước mắt lăn xuống. Không phải vì buồn, mà vì hạnh phúc và biết ơn vô cùng.

P/s: Và hôm nay, là một Chủ nhật như thế.

Rà hết kênh này, đến kênh khác, bộ film này đến bộ film khác, từ Tivi đến Netflix, vẫn chưa thấy điều mình cần lúc này.

… Tắt TV

… Tắt điện thoại

Mình nhắm mắt nghĩ về những dòng suy nghĩ bị gián đoạn lúc ban trưa.

Nói thật mình thích làm việc và được bận rộn. Tạo ra điều gì đó ý nghĩa và có năng suất sẽ làm mình vui cả ngày. Nên thường đầu óc mình chỉ xoay quanh công việc, hàng chục câu hỏi và ý tưởng trôi nổi trong đầu.

Có lúc nghĩ lớn lao làm gì cho đời, cho người. Có lúc đơn giản chỉ muốn làm gì đó mà bản thân mình thích là đủ. Cũng có lúc muốn đóng cửa và thu mình về một góc, không bàn thế sự ngoài kia. Chỉ muốn an trú một góc riêng.

Mình bắt tay vào học làm website #humamaria, có đêm thức đến 3-4h sáng nhưng vẫn rất tỉnh và hứng thú mày mò thiết kế từng câu chữ, hình ảnh và giao diện.

Rồi website mò mẫm, sửa đi sửa lại cũng đã xong. Những bài viết đầu tiên ra đời, những video còn vụng về và “non và xanh” ấy được tạo ra.

Mình biết đó là bước chân đầu tiên bước qua nỗi sợ và vượt ra khỏi vùng an toàn trong cái bẫy 9-5 của dân văn phòng, một cô nhân sự làm việc đa quốc gia, đang trên hành trình tạo ra điều gì đó ngoài chốn văn phòng.

Có rất nhiều bức tường vô hình đã và đang ngăn cản chúng ta bước về phía trước.

Rào cản từ bên trong như nỗi sợ thất bại, nỗi sợ bị đánh giá, tiếng nói của đứa trẻ bên trong vẫn còn day dứt vì những tổn thương cũ. Và những rào cản từ bên ngoài như điều kiện chưa đủ, thời điểm chưa phù hợp, hoàn cảnh chưa thuận lợi.

Đây được gọi là là tư duy cố định (fixed mindset). Khi chúng ta tin rằng khả năng của mình bị giới hạn, chúng ta vô thức tạo ra những rào cản để bảo vệ cái “tôi” hiện tại khỏi nguy cơ thất bại. Chính việc né tránh thử thách lại khiến chúng ta mất đi cơ hội phát triển.

Mình nhớ câu nói của Paulo Coelho trong cuốn sách Nhà Giả Kim, cuốn sách mình rất thích và đã đọc một cách ngấu nghiến.

Ông từng nói: “when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” Tạm dịch là: “Khi bạn muốn điều gì, cả vũ trụ sẽ hợp sức giúp bạn đạt được điều đó”.

Khi chúng ta chọn bắt đầu, chúng ta đang gửi một thông điệp mạnh mẽ đến vũ trụ và chính bản thân mình.

Đơn giản, hãy dũng cảm, dám ước và dám hành động, tin tưởng rằng mình xứng đáng với những điều tốt đẹp mà mình khao khát.

***

Đêm đó, sau một mớ bồng bông suy nghĩ. Một tiếng nói bên trong mình vang lên, như tự vấn bản thân một cách thẳng thắn và mạnh mẽ: “Mình có gì để mất, mà chưa dám bắt đầu?”

Câu hỏi quá đơn giản, nhưng thẳng thắn và thực tế vô cùng.

Ở đây, trên mảnh đất xa xôi này, mình đã bắt đầu lại từ con số không tròn trĩnh. Không người thân, không bạn bè, không mối quan hệ thân thiết. Môi trường, thời tiết, ngôn ngữ, văn hoá, thậm chí cả vị giác cũng phải học cách thích nghi,… thì thật ra, mình có gì để sợ mất đây?

Điều mình sợ mất thật ra không phải là những thứ hữu hình như tiền bạc, địa vị, hào nhoáng. Mà là sự tự tin vào bản thân, là niềm tin rằng mình có thể tạo ra ý nghĩa từ bất cứ hoàn cảnh nào.

Và điều đó, không ai có thể lấy đi.

Hai câu hỏi tưởng như giống nhau: “Mình sẽ mất gì” và “Mình có gì để mất?” lại mở ra hai hướng suy nghĩ hoàn toàn khác nhau.

• “Mình sẽ mất gì” tập trung vào những thứ có thể biến mất như tiền bạc, thời gian, danh tiếng, sự thoải mái. Nó dễ níu chân ta lại, khiến ta chọn an toàn thay vì dấn bước.

• “Mình có gì để mất” lại đẩy ta đi sâu hơn, về những thứ thực sự quan trọng tạo nên bản chất như phẩm chất, danh dự, tiếng nói, tiềm năng bị bỏ phí. Ta chẳng có gì quá lớn để sợ mất, ngoài chính cơ hội và tiềm năng của mình. Những kỹ năng, ước mơ, sự sáng tạo trong ta… sẽ mãi ngủ yên nếu không đánh thức chúng bằng hành động.

Thế nên, thay vì để nỗi sợ điều khiển, hãy hỏi đúng. Đáng tiếc nhất không phải là thất bại, mà là không bao giờ bắt đầu.

Mắt mình sáng lên như kiểu tìm được phao cứu sinh.

Mở laptop, mình bắt đầu gõ xuống những suy nghĩ trong đầu.

Những suy nghĩ này cần được viết ra, để nhắc nhở chính mình trong những ngày tới. Và chắc chắn, khi không còn bám víu vào điều gì, cuộc sống tự khắc sẽ mở ra nhiều cách cửa thần kỳ.

Có thể bạn cũng đang ở đâu đó, trong một đêm tương tự, đang tự hỏi liệu mình có đủ dũng cảm để bước tiếp hay không.

Hay bạn đang đứng trước ngã rẽ lớn trong cuộc đời, nghỉ việc để theo đuổi đam mê, chuyển nhà đến một thành phố mới, bắt đầu mối quan hệ nghiêm túc, hay đơn giản là thử một sở thích mới.

Có thể câu hỏi đơn giản này sẽ thay đổi cách bạn nhìn nhận: “mình có gì để mất“.

Có quá trễ để bắt đầu?

Bạn đang cần một chút động lực, một chút niềm vui và tia sáng len lỏi để bắt đầu?

Dù bất kỳ độ tuổi nào trong đời. Hãy cùng xem chiếc video đầu tay (phiên bản tiếng anh + việt)

Và đừng quên hỏi chính mình: “Thành công hay thất bại, cuối cùng bạn có gì để mất?”

P/s: Boston một đêm trở lạnh, bên trong căn phòng một ngọn lửa đang âm ỉ cháy!

• Tháng 8 chỉ tạo ra 22.000 việc làm (thấp hơn nhiều so với dự kiến 75.000).

• Tỷ lệ thất nghiệp tăng lên 4,3%, mức cao nhất kể từ năm 2017 (ngoài giai đoạn Covid).

• Hơn 25% người lao động thất nghiệp đã ở trong tình trạng này trên 6 tháng.

Từ góc nhìn của một người làm trong lĩnh vực nhân sự, cũng như đang tìm kiếm cơ hội tại thị trường Mỹ, mình nhận thấy:

Doanh nghiệp thận trọng hơn bao giờ hết: Thuế quan, lạm phát, bất ổn kinh tế khiến nhiều công ty ưu tiên giữ người giỏi thay vì mở rộng. Tuyển dụng trở nên khắt khe hơn, quy trình dài hơn, và mỗi vị trí đều cạnh tranh gắt gao.

Sự phân hóa ngành nghề rõ rệt: Một số ngành vẫn tăng trưởng (chăm sóc sức khỏe, dịch vụ xã hội), trong khi sản xuất, dầu khí, bán buôn, liên bang lại thu hẹp. Nghĩa là ai biết linh hoạt “chuyển làn” đúng lúc sẽ có thêm cơ hội.

Khả năng thích ứng là “chìa khóa vàng”. Đây không còn là lúc chờ may mắn, mà là lúc học thêm kỹ năng mới, nhận vài dự án phụ, hoặc thử việc linh hoạt để mở thêm nhiều cơ hội.

Mối quan hệ là sức mạnh. Không phải cơ hội nào cũng xuất hiện trên các trang tuyển dụng. Nhiều công việc đến từ networking, lời giới thiệu, hay đơn giản là một sự kết nối cafe cũng mang đến cơ hội mới.

Tư duy quyết định hướng đi. Thị trường khó khăn mình đâu kiểm soát được, nhưng cách mình học, mình kết nối và thể hiện bản thân thì hoàn toàn trong tay. Nhất là trong thời đại công nghệ, đứng yên chính là tụt lại.

Với những ai đang tìm việc: thay vì chờ “công việc mơ ước”, hãy sẵn sàng cho các cơ hội freelance, linh hoạt, hoặc học thêm kỹ năng để bắt kịp thị trường.

Có lúc khó khăn thấy mình thật nhỏ bé, nhưng cũng chính lúc này, ta học cách mạnh mẽ hơn, bền bỉ hơn. Và rồi mới thấy được con đường mình đi chưa bao giờ là vô nghĩa.

In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity!

Dạo gần đây cuộc sống của mình thay đổi khá nhiều về cả Thân – Tâm – Trí.

Tối qua, hai vợ chồng ghé vào một nhà hàng ở khu Harvard, Boston. Một nơi khá sầm uất cho cả dân địa phương và du lịch. Dù đông, nhưng mình chưa thấy nhà hàng nào nơi đây ồn ào, vội vã, vượt mặt Châu Á, ít nhất là theo trải nghiệm riêng.

Hôm nay lại khác, hàng dài người xếp hàng chờ bàn, order mang đi. Tầng trên, tầng dưới không khí vô cùng sôi nổi, một biển người đang di chuyển, cười nói, thưởng thức các món ăn kiểu Tây Ban Nha. Cái vibe này gợi mình nhớ khoảng thời gian Solo khám phá Bali - một tuổi trẻ, sôi nổi, tự do và đầy phóng khoáng.

Có điều khác với 2-3 năm trước, tiếng nhạc, sự ồn ào không còn thôi thúc sự nổi loạn, tưng bừng bên trong. Mình có phần bất thoải mái, đầu bắt đầu loạn choạng, hơi thở ngột ngạt. Mình nhận thức chuyện gì đang xảy ra.

Thần số học

Bộ môn giúp soi chiếu hành trình phát triển cá nhân qua chu kỳ 9 năm.

Còn nhớ năm ngoái, năm số 6 vốn là một “đỉnh nhỏ” trong chu kỳ, đó là lúc hàng loạt sự kiện lớn nhỏ xảy ra trong đời mình.

Nào là cầu hôn, kết hôn, thay đổi nơi sống, môi trường, công việc và may mắn có thẻ xanh trong vòng 3 tháng. Nói thêm là trước đó mình nôn nao có người yêu, nôn nao làm hồ sơ du học, định cư các thể loại. Tất cả đều rớt, không một cánh cửa mở ra.

“Người tính không bằng trời tính” quả không sai.

Despite having explored numerous countries and meticulously preparing for this transition, the reality of living here has been dramatically different from what I envisioned. From financial anxieties and career uncertainties to learning countless new laws and adapting to an unfamiliar culture, my mind has been a whirlwind of fears and doubts.

There have been countless moments when I’ve questioned everything:

• Did I make the right choice?

• Who am I becoming in this new place?

• What purpose does my life serve here?”

The overwhelming sensation of displacement hit me with unexpected force.

I tried everything to escape the feeling of missing my family, frantically jumping between projects, desperately searching for answers. But regardless of my efforts, the internal chaos only grew louder, the emptiness deeper.

Share Humamaria’s Substack

Moving to a new country is not just about a change of address; it’s a change of identity.

I have to let go of who I was to make room for who I am becoming.

Moving can make me question who I am, but it’s also an opportunity to rediscover and redefine myself. So instead of focusing on what I’ve lost or comparing what I had before, I started seeing the beauty in this place.

I am glad that you are here and read these words. It means that you want to have a change in your life, or at least you are curious about what’s possible.

If so…

Let’s dive into the story together and explore how to take that first, challenging step toward opening a brand-new door in your life together with me.
