It seems like all this job market has to offer is rejection! I haven't turned in that many applications (probably around five) but I feel like I have turned them in to a multitude of different employers of all different shapes and sizes and none of them want me!!! It is so dis-heartening! I hate hate hate that e-mail that says "thank you for your interest but we are pursuing other candidates." I do not believe they are thankful for my interest! Now, I know they have to write something to delicately tell the hundreds of people who have applied for that single job, that they didn't get it (most likely because as I've been reminded multiple times, its not what you know but who you know) but I feel like that "thank you" is almost patronizing. Would it be so awful to be honest and realistic and say, "hey, we know this sucks and we are sorry, but you weren't selected for this position"?
Wow, that was a LOT of ranting! I apologize for that little tangent haha!
But I am still pressing onward! I have now decided to look into going back to school! So exciting! Except I don't know what to go for. I am thinking something in the medical field like nursing or an ultrasound tech. I think both could be very interesting, and I think I would love either. Im going to look into both more tho. I will keep you informed, and by "you" I mean myself and the vast electronic void that these blogs go into :)
