First Rejection

So I got the result of my first job interview. "We are unable to offer you this position." Ouch. Well, not really. I had a feeling that they would pass over me cause one of the analysts kept telling me that he's afraid I'll be bored. I guess coming from small companies where I virtually ran the show overqualifies me for administrative assisting. It's a compliment, sure. But what if I want to be bored. I was considering it a break or dare I say, a vacation (at least from my crazy past jobs).

Well since Linda knew the person who had the results of my interview, she gave me the inside scoop. Turns out it was the other analyst that had concerns about me. This man was a banker and his style is very systematic. He wanted an assistant that wouldn't be too independent or creative. He just wanted someone to answer his phones, file his documents and arrange his travel.

Oh well. I'm sure it's all for the best.
