More than 400 days. That is how long it took me to find work after losing my job in Sweden. In this episode I talk honestly about what unemployment looks like here: the A-kassan system, the compulsory outplacement programme that barely helps if you are qualified, the CV engineering I developed, using AI as an interview coach, and the 50-plus interviews that led to exactly one offer. What the market does to your ego, and what Seneca had to say about it.
Stoic philosophy, life in Sweden, culture, history, and everything worth thinking about. YouTube: youtube.com/@latitude59p Free bilingual transcripts + support: ko-fi.com/latitude59 If this added something to your day, a rating helps more than you'd think. Thanks for listening.
