disappointed

le sigh.
i thought my interview went well today - the recruitment agent was really enthusiastic, said she was sending 3 girls along to be interviewed on monday by the woman in charge of this place, and thought that i had a really good chance at being the one to get the job.
she said she would forward on my resume and call me as soon as she heard anything from her.
it's 5:45pm, and she hasn't rung me.
so i take it to mean that i didn't get another interview... let alone the job.

so it's back to more job hunting again.
sigh. how do you find the energy to keep going?
i don't know how many rejections i'm gonna be able to cope with. i've never been good with that, but here we are, back to the start again.

But you don't KNOW that nothing came of it.
And even if it didn't work out.. I have faith in you!

Re:

yeah... that's what my dad said; that there's still a chance i could hear from her with good news. he said she could ring tomorrow - i didn't think the agency would be open tomorrow, being a saturday, but he said they definitely would be... so maybe not all hope is lost; but i'm trying not to get my hopes up again.
it sucks to be disappointed - at least if i convince myself if didn't work out, and then maybe get a surprise call tomorrow, it will be much nicer than being all excited again, only to be let down.
but thankyou hon. xoxx.

if you didn't get the job, it probably means you were meant for something better dear. don't worry. you have the talent and charisma to find a job that suits you better. *hugs* i believe in you.

Re:

things have a way of working out for the best, even if it takes a while. i'm really bad with rejection, of all sorts, and i'm dreading getting rejected for graduate jobs (which will probably be very soon!). but, I honestly believe that things will work out ok, and you will find something that is better for you, and that you are best for.
I haven't been on LJ for a few days, so apologies for not replying to any of your posts, I do care! *hugs*

Re:

yes, that's true... the "everything happens for a reason" mantra :)
i wish you best of luck with YOUR graduate jobs - we can sympathise together about them! and you're right... we both need to remember that things will work out okay, in time :)

&that is quite okay... i know you care, and thankyou love. xoxox.

Give it four or five days, darlin, and call back. Calling back shows them you're interested. I called my previous employer every Tuesday for four weeks, before they hired me.

everyone i know who is a recent university grad is having a hard time finding a job. i think it takes awhile--so don't feel like a failure :D I'm sure with patience somethign will come along that will be made for you :)

Re:

i'm glad i'm not the only one - it makes me feel less alone and less like a failure, but rather that this is just a step that everyone has to take.
hopefully something WILL come along soon though; i don't know how long i'll be able to remain positive about it!

Honey, those agencies deal with hundreds of people a day. you need to remind them you exist - that you're on their itinerary - Friday afternoons are ALWAYS busy for them (I remember being told by lots of people in lots of agencies), or the employer may be taking a while to respond - so just call them first thing monday.
*hugs*
chin up, dear heart, something great's coming your way, I know it.
