Erm... Hello!
After what seems like ages, I finally had some time to come back into this page and write something. I have been trying to do it whenever I can but it is never enough time to write a complete piece before I have to go again.
In the last few months, I have started to work in a call centre. So far, it has been quite fun and interesting but so challenging at the same time. While I enjoy a challenge, I am starting to think why am I still here? Why am I still trying to pass probation when I could be doing something I would really enjoy?
The answer is simple. Experience... I have no experience in the area that I want to work (if anyone is reading this and is looking for a new employee, hit me up!). That is making it impossible for me to get a better job, learn and develop my skills, and give me the experience that I need.
I have been sending applications left and right, trying to find a good position for me to start following the career path that I want, but it turns out that I haven't got enough experience for these roles. And surprise- surprise, I am not able to gain any experience for them as I am not being given a chance.
Is it me? Am I not good enough? What do I have to do to get the job I want?
Every time that I apply for a job, I keep on getting the same reply. "Sorry, on this occasion you were not selected." As you can imagine, that is a big hit on my self-confidence and is making me doubt myself constantly.
I am still trying to get the job, while I am still questioning my skills and my degree. Will I even be enough for this? I will keep you updated and tell you all the answers when I find out myself.
So far, it has been a constant slap across my face as I keep on looking and trying to get this so called experience that seems so hard to find. Even for Junior roles, they seem to be looking for people who were already doing this very same job elsewhere. It is so discouraging and stressful, and I end up feeling like I will never get the experience for this role as it requires me to be recently graduated, have experience, sell my soul to the devil, and have a full UK driving license, because apparently that seems to be required as well.
When I start being a bit more lucky and actually get a job in the area that I would like, I will give a more detailed explanation on how I got it and how the hob is going.
Thank you for being so patient with me and waiting for me to post something for months.
