Today was divine consciousness. That has been playing a large role in my life lately, as I have been doing a job search. I've applied for a handful of jobs, and have had 3 interviews. The first job, I was excited about. The second, well, it would have been a paycheque, and the third...well, at the interview I said I would be interested in coming in to volunteer if I didn't get hired. The job was just what I wanted, the the company is one that I believe in, the company culture is amazing. Ohhh I wanted that job. And I got it. It pays a little less than what I was hoping for, but it seems like a small price to pay in light of everything else.
Job searching can be so frustrating and disheartening. Especially when you are trying to break out of a mold. Trying to get someone to give you that chance. to see between the lines on your resume. I was so unhappy with my last job, really feeling that I wasn't contributing to anything, on any level. I didn't want to do that again.
My sister has always said that I have a horseshoe...ah, somewhere in my anatomy. Things, especially jobs, just seem to come to me. While I have been looking for jobs, I do admit that I don't think I sent out more than 20 or so resumes. I only started looking in earnest in January. So 5 months of looking, with only a handful of resumes...that's not bad. I know people who send out hundreds of resumes over weeks, and don't get anywhere.
If I had gotten that job in February (job #1), I wouldn't have had this opportunity.
I have tried to keep in mind that things happen the way they are supposed to, and that is part of divine consciousness.
