So this week has been very interesting in the job search. First the negative... I got 3 rejection letters today. I still feel that while it's nice to know that a job I applied to several months ago is now filled... it doesn't help. Plus, all of the letters said there were more than 200 applicants. So it's hard to not get down on yourself when I'm here in Ohio and there are 199+ applicants applying for the same job that are NOT in Ohio.
On the other side... I applied to a job at a museum about... 3 months ago. I heard back and they filled the position. Then on Thursday I was doing my normal round of searches when I saw the job... was open again! So I reapplied. Not sure if I stand a chance, after all it's not like I had an interview. But I'm trying to stay positive. See my last job at the TV station... well I applied in June... never heard back until I got a call in October. They filled the position and then the person didn't work out so they called me! So ya never know.
It is hard not getting discouraged... ok who am I kidding... I'm discouraged. I guess what's hard is to not let it stop you... I keep trying to tell myself that at some point it will work out... and at this point in my life it's still working.
