But I would say try to get temp jobs that are more relevant to your real job search. Eg.

In reality, a lot of temp or contract jobs are admin-related. So let us say a fresh grad wants to get into finance or banking. Temp jobs in a stock broking firm or an insurance company is still relevant.
If gt temp job v hard go interview. Last time I got a temp job tk 2 half day per week n gt warned.
I tk part time nw. Unrelated.

To abv poster.. hu isn't sick...I oso stressed.
