So a few weeks ago I had an interview for the E club as a recreation attendant. The job sounded fantastic because it was exactly where I wanted to be and I could easily move around.
I thought I did well in the interview. I made eye contact, I made sure I listened and payed attention, I dressed well and I answered all the questions. And in the end where they asked if I wanted to say anything I replied "MCCS brings a great amount of opportunity, as well a great amount of familiarity for me. I have been around Marines my enitre life, and I love to work with them.". I wasnt being ingenuious, I was being sincere, honestly I was. I both really wanted, and really needed this job.
A few days ago I found out that I didnt get the job. I called to make sure after a few weeks with no one contacting me. I was, and still am upset about the whole situation. I really wanted that job.
The hard part to swallow is that from what I heard, when I interviewed, the managing team had already had some people they wanted to fill the position. Which means that my interview was worthless. That really sucks because for weeks I had hope I would get this job. Now I feel stupid for hoping. I wish they would have just told me I didnt even have the slightest chance to get the job.
My new goal is to find a new job. Well actually several new jobs and see what I can get. Im still picky at what I do, however Im not just trying to get a bartending gig. So we'll see.
No more stupid hope for me though... hopefully.
