I have changed jobs a few times in the past. Usually to try something a little different or to get out of an increasingly unstable environment. I always left with a fairly certain feeling I would continue to be gainfully employed. So far I have been able to “move up” with every new job.
Well, those times have changed. I recently left a job for circumstances that seemed so unimportant. Now I sit at home everyday working on side projects and looking for the next fun job. In the past my resume would stand out for any job I applied for. Now it doesn’t seem to shine so bright. Here is a quote from a job I applied for the other day.
“We’ve received a very large number of responses to our positions and are currently working through them. We’ll contact you if we need you to come in for an interview.”
I can’t tell you how frustrating it is to not hear back from jobs you apply for, but it seems they are getting inundated with so many applicants they can’t get back to them all.
This must be a sign of the times. I know there is an employer out there in need of my amazing skill set. If you are reading this please put up the bat signal or give me a call.
