The Job Mismatch Roadblock is an issue that can stop you from getting a job you want. It's a barrier to entry that's often caused by one or both of the following:

A lack of experience in the field or
Someone else has already claimed the role you want to fill.

1. To overcome this roadblock, it's essential to take into account your unique strengths and weaknesses when applying for jobs. For example, if you're a great writer but your writing skills are rusty, it may be wise to focus on finding a job that requires more creative writing than straight copy-writing. You might also consider speaking with other people who know the industry better than yourseld. they may have advice on how best to position yourself for success in this role.

2. Look at each employee's skill set and see if there are any areas where they could potentially be trained up on. If there are, then consider how much time it would take to train them up on those skills before replacing them with someone else who already has them down pat.

3. Talk to people who have been through what you're going through and learn from their experience. They might be able to give you advice on how they overcame a similar situation and how they made peace with it later on down the road when things got tough again after they left their first jobs or jobs in general behind them completely (and maybe even into other careers).
