I understand that but it makes the blog a little bit one-sided. Those 'good news' stories often talk about people finding great jobs within 2-3 weeks. I imagine that during the pandemic many candidates struggled and had been unemployed for over a year. Still, her content hasn't changed much except for mentioning virtual work more often.
I remember multiple "good news" updates when people had been unemployed for a long time before finally finding a job.
