What the f...? Having spent most of my working life doing administration and receptionist duties I think I have pretty much the right experience for those type of roles. It only happened the last 9 months of my employment were being the estimator and I still kept my hand in with the admin anyway. Well, I'm pretty fed up about this whole work situation. Today I got an email from a place of employment I'd sent my CV to for a Reception/Admin Assistant position. They regret to tell me I'm not up for an interview and that I wasn't skilled enough for that type of role. What?! That's twice now. So do I not have enough skills for these types of jobs? Have I got t go back to Office Junior with crap money? am I looking for the wrong type of job? I must think I'm something special to apply for jobs I'm now not capable of doing. I'm just fed up with applying for so many jobs and hearing hardly any replies. When I do they say that I haven't got the right skills. What experience do I have after being an Admin Assistant from the age of 17 if it isn't administration? Just what am I supposed to do? How long is the unemployment going to last? I'm sick to the back teeth with it. I apply for so many jobs, I'm constantly looking in the papers and on the internet. Not a day goes past that I'm not searching round for a position to apply. It all seems to be in vain. I'm giving up hope of finding a job soon, of getting some money in and having a bit of a life once more. I don't even care about it anymore. I still don't want to do temping yet. I feel like it's giving in too easily but what is there really left for me to do? |
