Another interview this Friday.
I was lucky enough to find my first real job pretty easily, so my experience with job applications, interviews, cover letters, follow-up, rejection, etc. is pretty limited. So for the past year, looking for a job in Boston has been a pretty daunting task. For me, it's not the economy that scared me. It was the constant selling of myself, playing up my strengths, putting myself out there... I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. It was horrifying.
By now, after submitting countless applications to companies, stores and school districts that may or may not be in my field, it's become a lot less horrifying. I might even say that it's become ... quotidian (new word!).
So for my interview this Friday, I hope I can muster up the enthusiasm that's been slowly deflating since last year so that I can get this job. (It's a part-time tutoring job here in Cambridge.)
Wish me luck!
