Disappointment
06/02/2009
Well, I got my answer about the job interview last Tuesday. They’re not hiring me. I’m disappointed because I thought I answered everyone’s questions and represented myself well. I’m getting tired of continually sending out resumes and getting rejected. Frankly, I’m not sure how my web presence helps or hinders–thus I’m not listing the company name here. I do know that one of the people had done some Google searching on companies. While he didn’t say that he typed my name into Google, he probably did. He likely knew far more about me than the resume told him. So I’m back to searching for a job–which I’ve been doing while waiting. It has been a lean couple of days though.

Yeah, I use StatCounter on my site and every now and then I’ll see that someone wrote my name into Google and got onto my blog. Always gotta wonder about that person. Was it a colleague? I know that happened before I got back to grad school, but after that, no telling. Until then, keep your head up! I’m struggling to find summer work myself, and I think a lot of people would sympathize with your plight.
