More Interviews
I have just finished one interview, which was the shortest interview on record, and have two to go. The first interview was somewhat of a bust. I think that the work of the job would be alright, it would be stuff that I definitely be comfortable with.
And then….the uncomfortable stuff.
Family owned business. Nepotism. Need I say more? My direct supervisor has her three year old IN THE OFFICE. Her mother-in-law works there.
Pay. I knew that it would be difficult to get the pay I wanted, but this place was bordering on ridiculous. She kept gushing about how great my resume was, and how much relevant experience I had, and then…”we’re going to offer you next to nothing!”
Hours. It’s more hours than I want, and they work really early in the morning. Everyone that knows me knows that I am NOT a morning person.
She told me that she didn’t have any other interviews scheduled, that mine was the only one so far. And, did she mention, that she really loved my resume?
So the question is, do I deserve to be happy? Is the job market bad enough that I need to take whatever I can get?
My other interviews are for a fourteen hour a week receptionist job with a Pilates studio, and a part time bank teller job. I guess I could stand to be more of an optimist an hope that one of these other jobs will be a better fit.
