I'm at that point in my life where I need to sit down and have a good long think about what to do next. I spent four years doing a three year course that I actually didn't like, and really has no benefit in the jobs market unless I got a first (which let's be honest now wasn't going to happen anyway!). So now I've to get a masters and specialise in some area and to carve a career out of it. I'm thinking something in Marketing but apparently its not all its cracked up to be- as attractive as Don Draper and co make it look.
But at that I'm not going back to college until next year so I'm stuck looking for a job and that's not what my head needs right now. I HATE rejection, especially for things that I want. I'm sure most people apply for a job and get that rejection letter or phone call and think nothing of it but I take it to heart for some reason. It only adds to my insecurity about work and employment and myself for that matter. I'd love to apply for a job that I want and ACTUALLY get it, and do well at it and climb the ladder you know. Actually have something to show for all my 'hard work'. But then on the flip side when I get those letters/phone calls I see it as their loss because they lost out on a competent worker. So I guess its hit and miss until I land my dream job (which by the way I STILL haven't figured out).
or I could be like this guy and make a quick buck with my 'management skills'
