    Feeling Planning Thinking

    I just had a really tough job interview for a position that I was excited about. From the start, I sensed that the interviewer wasn't fond of me. She had a very cold demeanor and didn't show much emotion at all. Normally, I feel confident in interviews, but this time it felt like no matter how I answered her questions, she was not convinced my experience was a good match. I provided examples to demonstrate my qualifications, but I couldn't shake the feeling that it wasn't about my skills—it was more personal. I'm left feeling pretty down about it, thinking I probably didn't get the job unless they are in a desperate situation. On the bright side, I have two more interviews lined up for next week, so I'm trying to stay positive.

    Applied to a Job Feeling Planning Thinking

    I’m currently unemployed and actively applying for jobs, with a few interviews lined up for positions that I consider less desirable. I’m at a crossroads, contemplating whether I should accept a mediocre job offer if it comes my way, just to cover my bills. I understand that a gap in employment can reflect poorly on my resume, and many people have advised me that even taking a less desirable job is better than having no job at all while I continue my search for something better. It’s a tough decision, balancing financial needs with my career aspirations.
