Keeping my phone on while I search - 9 months and counting

I use my phone as my only connection. This is my first time dealing with any of this. Employers call and email constantly. Did you qualify for any programmes?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

Keep the number you use for job applications, even if you change plans. Employers will call it.
