At the moment, I have no feedback from the job I did not get. But not expecting any.
Put it this way, at the age of 56, this is what I am up against. And I'm not saying that all firms or corporations are like this but for the first time in my life, I feel that in job terms, this is going to be a hard slog.
I hope that someone is going to prove my cynicism unfounded because, it's not looking good. lol
Thank god I am an optimistic person and do not need a job to qualify who I am. But at the same time, I wouldn't like to think that I am off the job market forever.
But then again! lol
I'll give it a few months then I will have to seriously consider sending my book off. Actually, I've been seriously considering it for 5 years now. Hey, perhaps this will be the push I need.
Just come in, another email to say that I have not been successful in my last job application. Don't mind this refusal as it was a bit of a long shot. It was quite a long way from home and not really an option. The fact that it says that I was not successful on 'this occasion,' was a bonus.
There's hope for the future. lol
Also, in this day and age, it's good that they reply.
What's next?
Look through job sites again, and most importantly, keep positive because not being successful in procuring a job, doesn't mean I'm not good at what I do. Because I know I am.
I expect there are going to be a lot more of these letters. And there will be times when I will not feel this positive, but I'm expecting that, and it will pass.
Once more into the breach my dear friends, and remember, when one door closes, thirty others will close in your face. Then eventually, a window will open.
