But, if you find a great job at a dream company and the salary doesn’t stack up to all the work you’re putting in–is it worth it?
You deserve to be paid fairly for the amount of hours you clock in, so instead of wasting your time applying to jobs that aren’t going to help you pay your bills and save a little–spend your time applying to the jobs that you know are going to pay you what you’re worth.
