No one really goes into an interview speaking about politics, or propaganda, or unionizing.
They don't but humans are extremely good at picking up unspoken language. Not only that, employers and hiring managers will look you up, read your blogs, read your social media posts, and call your ex employers.
Telling people to have a good attitude is easy to say, hard to do when you've been applying for 6+ months with no response and bills to pay.
Unfortunately, the advice that's most likely to help is something everyone already knows. Networking, practice, and luck play a huge role in a environment like this. And cut expenses as much as possible, just in case you need a cash cushion.
