Sometimes having too much free time and nothing to do can drive a person up the wall... i am almost to the extent and the only thing that kept me sane is the company of my books. Gosh. Never before have i feel so exasperated and restless about getting a job. I know that the day will come where i will regret saying that but at this moment, i really wish to have a job where i know that at the end of the month, i can see the figures in my bank account increasing. At this moment... it's going downhill. sheesh. I am trying to stay as optimistic as possible but seriously i have no idea what employers are looking for. Sigh. I thought that by doing well in yr studies mean that you have an edge over the other applicants but it seems like it's not longer the case. To be frank, i do get frustrated at times with the kind of responses i received from employers. I really dun know what's wrong with it and the thought of not knowing why you were not shortlisted throws the whole situation into mental chaos. Well, whatever it is, i must never give up hope. The process of finding a job is certainly a challenge itself. Just imagine the amount of application forms you have to fill and to customize yr cover letters to the company requirements. *yawn* i'm dreading each time i have to type a new cover letter.
And what's with employers looking for people with 3-4 yrs of experiences? what abt those freshies who just graduated? who then will give them the opportunity to gain the experience. Shite i tell ya.. it's like a catch-22 situation. WHATEVER!!!! i guess i am feeling so much better with all the ramblings but no matter what, i still have to continue searching for a job. Till that day comes, I am seating here by my seat like a grumpy old man.
