Navigating your Job Search: Staying Resilient through Mindfulness

Could this be you? The excitement of graduation fades… and the uncertainty begins to creep in.

“Will I get a job?”

“Why am I facing so many rejections?”

You’re not alone. The job search can be stressful, discouraging, and emotionally draining especially when the outcomes don’t match your expectations. Many fresh graduates find themselves in this very place.

The good news? You don’t have to stay there. When the going gets tough, the tough get going, and this lunchtime resilience workshop is here to help you do just that.

Through this interactive session, you’ll gain practical strategies and mindset tools to build resilience and take back control of your job search journey.

You will learn to:

1. Recognise…

thinking patterns that get you down
when you need help and where to get it

2. Rewire…
your thoughts – experiencing mindfulness for resilience
to regulate difficult emotions

3. Ready, Go!
Actionable plans to move forward.

This is a post-event workshop for NUS Career Fest 2026.
