Weekly Round-up: Job Interviews

May 22, 2011

This week has been a rather busy one; it was my 23rd birthday, my first week back to my teaching placement, and my final interview for a job I probably won’t get but really, really want.

I spent my birthday teaching, so it wasn’t very exciting. I did go out for a nice Indian meal, and eat a lovely homemade chocolate cake but that really is it. I also was given a fair amount of money, but the majority of it paid the travel expenses for my interview, which is pretty depressing if you think about it.

The interview was for a graduate assistant director role at Explore Learning, which is a tuition company for 5-14 year olds. I really don’t know how the day when from the company’s perspective, but I have that horrible sinking feeling of failure so I rather doubt they’ll offer me the job. The sad truth is though, that now I’m pretty stuck. I’d put a lot into preparing for this opportunity because it’s the one thing I really wanted, but now that it probably won’t happen I have no idea where to start next. Back to the drawing board I suppose.
