Job sites browsed:     Several

Jobs applied for:        2

Leads:                        2

Mood:                        Good

Enthusiasm:               8/10

Cakes eaten:              None, because I'm in a fairly good place.

When it comes to the jobs market I have to remember, that it's not personal... it's business. 

It's not easy to feel that way sometimes, especially when people with less experience and fewer qualifications than me get the job. 

Before I go on, this is not aimed at anybody I know. This is just a general observation concerning my own job hunting experience.  

I'm going to try and remain optimistic, and hopefully, one day, all the energy I put into job hunting will pay off. But I won't hold my breath.

The trouble is, when I get feedback from jobs, they say it was a good interview, but if it was that good, why didn't I get the job?

I long for the day when someone pulls my interview technique to pieces, then I'll have something concrete to go on. Or is getting a job purely the luck of the draw? Either way, I'm going to try and remain positive. I'm going to draw on that old cliche, ' It's there loss.'

What's next?

1) Dinner, I'm hungry. Exercising my fingers like this is gruelling. lol

2) I think there is a footie match on the television that needs my attention tonight.

3) Apply for two more jobs tomorrow.
