So break is now over and things are quickly picking up here at WPI. Personally I'm already bombarded with email assignments and meetings and all of the craziness that surrounds being a student here.
As for my job search? Let's just say I didn't have a chance to stick to my goal. I ended up being far busier than I expected with family things over break and didn't quite get the chance to accomplish everything that I wanted to.
On the other end, I heard back from the company I had a phone interview with and I didn't get the job. Not that it was really a surprise, as I am fairly certain I spent a good portion of the interview giggling... I don't think I'd hire me either after that! Although the position sounded really interesting, the location was once again far enough away that it probably wouldn't work well for me so I guess it all worked out in the end anyways.
As much as it sucks to get the email saying you didn't get it, I am treating the entire experience as a chance to learn from my mistakes and hopefully be a better candidate when a job I am super interested in comes along.
At the moment, everything job related is going to have to take a back seat for a week or two, as my classes come first and I'm pretty sure I'm already behind... and sick. What is it with those two thing?
New Year's Resolution: Don't get behind, don't get sick and get better about sorting and prioritizing my email. And when I say New Year's I mean starting as soon as I feel better!
Hope things are going well for you guys, and that you're having good luck in your searches!
