A new week, a new round of rejection coming right up. Please, if you think I’m overqualified, or you wouldn’t want me anyway because of lack of experience…then don’t call me up for an interview. It wastes both of our time and gives me a stupid sense of hope.
So where should I start today? I just hope I won’t vent it out to the people around me.
I went for the most deceiving interview last week. I applied for a position as a “Business Development Associate”, which promises that I will get to do marketing stuff and accounts handling. They want someone with a degree in mass comm/tourism, and looks really legit, so I was really quite happy to secure an interview. The only problem is that the company is classified.
I should have known that there’s no such thing as too good a thing. You see, they encourage fresh graduates to come and join, and they didn’t tell me what company this is. Even when asked, they gave some acronym. When I reached Newton, I was wondering which building to enter, so I had to give the person who contacted me a call.
It was fucking Prudential.
I went in, saw the person in charge…she practically gave me a sales pitch, saying that I can became a Business Development Associate only if my performance is well…my performance as a Financial Consultant. As an associate, I can get to do marketing! It’s like handling my own business! ISN’T IT FUN?
FUCKER. Do I sign up for a managerial position, and then say, Oh, I know I can’t qualify now, but maybe in a few years! What about offering me something else first?
You know what’s the worse thing about being deceived? It’s knowing that if I don’t try to get this job, I might not be able to get another job for a long time. If I’m not overqualified, I lack the experience. If not, I don’t dress up well enough. To be really honest, this is the only job that doesn’t mind fresh graduates. And that bloody fucker even said that, “Oh actually, qualifications doesn’t matter.” Fuck, then why did you put that in your bloody ad??
They called me up on Sunday to make sure that I’m coming down for the second interview today. As if they’re scared I’ll run away. They know I hate them.
