So I hate asking for encouragement... but things have not been going my way recently. I am job hunting and I have been turned down for every job I have had an interview for. That is depressing, however, tomorrow I have an interview meal with the president of a company who said that the company really liked me. I mean they said the interview went really well. This company is a remote office company so I am the only person in my area. The president just happens to be passing through.
Maybe it is just my skepticism. I mean... every other recruiter/HR person said that they really liked what they heard on the phone. Yet... every time I get to the real life interview. It is determined that I am not good enough. So I get all excited and happy, then boom I crash back down. This has happened 3 times in the past month. I get built up really good. I mean... one company flew me out and spent $1000 on me to give me an interview. Then turned me down the other company seemed to like me. I knew my stuff, but I guess I was not a good office fit... maybe it is because I have trouble focusing my eyes... I do not know... that is just how I am... the third company just sort of gave me a test and was done with it. So I am pretty depressed. Especially since I have not received a return call from any recruiters who I have failed an interview for.
So I do not know.. I really want this new job. It would be the perfect job for a loser like me. I would almost never have to leave home. However, I am anxious... it is not every day the president of a company comes to see you... if he does not like me then I am back to square one. I am really starting to hate my current job. I really hope I get this one. The guys on the phone sounded really impressed. However, now I have to add etiquette to this... I do not know... every time I screw up in the live interview. It is just depressing. I get so hopeful and no one wants me. It is just like my life.
So yeah I am venting about trivial nonsense... I know most people would kill to be in my position in this economy. If you want to kill me let me know I have no problem arranging appearing somewhere to let you. However, I could just use something to make me feel like I have this job. I mean one company spent $1000 on me just for an interview then turned me down... now I am meeting with the company president. I want to take that as a good sign.. but... I do not know how to take it.
Thanks for reading... I know I am a waste of space. Complaining about not possibly getting a job when I have plenty of other recruiters trying to get me interviews.. thanks...
