interviews and rejections
May 22nd, 2007
So, I got a phone call just now informing me that I didn’t get the job that I interviewed for last Friday. I had postponed my jury duty to get to the interview and now wondering if I should have just gone to jury duty instead.
This makes it the 5th interview I’ve had so far and now I’m 0 for 5. These rejections are getting to be downright depressing. But, I keep getting calls from various companies that have found my resume on Monster.com.
Anyway, where a door closes a window opens, right? I have another interview this morning and I also have another possible interview for a part-time position as administrator for a site, which would be better suited for me, being a working musician. And the hours seem flexible and I can work from home.
Okay, I’m not getting my hopes up, because rejections are tough.

Sorry about the rejection(s), hang in there… And don’t worry about the Jury Duty, something tells me you will get another chance! hehe That part time site admin job sounds very ideal, good luck with that!!

yeah, i know quite a few people in the business who feel that salary is a bit low. it’s definitely made me lose some faith in the credibility of job recruiters.
i make much more money per hour as a musician, anywhere from $25/hr to $250/hr, so it makes it hard to take a $15/hr gig, whatever it is.
