Please Stop Ghosting Me.
Monday, September 12, 2016Why does looking for a new job feel like I'm dating again? I literally feel like I am on tinder swiping through different jobs. I get excited when I find a job that pays semi-decent. I get extremely excited when I get that email or call saying, "hey we like your resume! You want to come on in for an interview?" Then I get dressed up and practice my confidence. I'm usually not nervous when I go into interviews because I know that I am pretty great at what I want to do and I am generally a well liked person. Anyways, the interview always goes well and I always hear, "you will hear from us soon." I walk away feeling empowered and elated. Days and weeks go by and all I see in my inbox are coupons for H&M, Pizza Hut, and Forever21. I was ghosted by job. This has happened to me, within two months, about f i v e freaking times. I know five times doesn't sound like a lot, but when you are constantly sending out your resume to internships and part-time positions, five times can get to you. I'm trying to not get discouraged. I know that the right job is out there for me, I know that the right internship is waiting for me. My savings account may be dwindling and I find myself eating butter and bread for breakfast and cereal for dinner, but its ok. Something is going to come up.

No worries! If your employment stuff is still worrying you, it will happen soon! But if you managed to find one since posting this entry then, See! I knew it would happen! Just keep your head high and remember to gush all you want. Nothing wrong with enjoying the less stressful part of life. :) Miss you.
