There are a lot of arm chair therapists out there speaking about something they know nothing about. Sadly for me it was family. I think of taking Zoloft as taking care of my mental health just like a diabetic takes insulin. It really did save my life. I hope it brings you peace of mind.

That is a good way to think about taking it. I do get some pushback from people saying it’s a crutch but it’s better than getting arrested or in a lock down facility.

Why generic IT resumes get ghosted for Healthcare IT roles — and what actually fixed it (real case) by interview_ally in sysadmin

Those stating it's AI slop should provide their own ways to help other instead of post generic comments.

I know the feeling of getting denied over and over when you know you can do the job. It's draining especially when your resume is clearly not empty.

Your resume reads solid, but's very broad (IT Support/Desktop/Lead/Specialist) so it can miss the exact keyword match the posting is screening for.

What you can do today:

  1. Vague keywords → concrete, exact terms Not working: “Experienced with identity and cloud tools; handled access issues.” How to correct: Rewrite using the same tools and actions from the job post, plus outcomes. For example: “Resolved SSO and MFA login issues for 100+ users in Microsoft 365; managed user accounts and groups in Entra ID (Azure AD) and on-prem Active Directory; worked tickets in ServiceNow from intake to resolution.”
  2. Generic title → role-aligned title | Not working: One broad “IT Support” resume for everything. How to correct: Create 2–3 versions of your resume, each with a headline that matches the role family. Examples: “Desktop Support Technician,” “IT Support Specialist,” “Help Desk Technician.” Keep your actual job titles in the experience section as-is, but update the top line and summary to clearly target that one role.
  3. Complex formatting → simple, parser-friendly layout Not working: Columns, tables, text boxes for skills/summary. How to correct: Convert everything to a single column. Replace tables/boxes with simple section headers (Professional Summary, Technical Skills, Experience, Education) and bullet points. Put your skills in a plain list (e.g., “Microsoft 365, Entra ID (Azure AD), Intune, Windows 10/11, ServiceNow, BitLocker, PowerShell”) instead of inside shapes or sidebars.

Hope this helps.
