2006.08.03 The Job Hunt Begins

Finally, I've started sending my resume.  For this week, one company responded.  I already had the initial interview and the exam.  I was asked to have the final interview tomorrow at 10:00 a.m.  Feeling tired from all the train, jeep, and bus rides, I asked if it was possible to have it in the afternoon.  What a lousy job hunter.





I am not sure if I would like the position I am currently applying for.  It sounds like a really encompassing training for the real estate industry and a great opportunity for me to meet more people, yet I am not sure if I really want it.  For this position, I would be responsible to receive calls even in the middle of the night, wake up so early in the morning, travel on weekends (this part is okay anyway), a regular office schedule of 9 to 7 (10 hours!), deal with the sales people, and work really work just work.





Still, I would go for the interview tomorrow.  I had it re-scheduled to 1:00 in the afternoon.  What a demanding job hunter.





Maybe I am not yet ready for a real work responsibility again.  I do not want to get myself so tired from work.  Yet, I do not want to be forever dependent on somebody else.  Or maybe I am looking for work at the wrong place.





Time to re-assess my job hunt strategy. As employers are very careful in choosing their next employees, I will also take great caution in choosing the company I will consider as my next employer.  Besides, it would give both employee-seekers and job-seekers as me greater efficiency, less time lost, and less headache.





I'm still tired.  I had to go to Manila again tomorrow, while I had just arrived here in Zambales.





What a lousy piece of writing.  Hihihi.





Kampay! Para sa isang matiwasay na buhay!
