2003-02-27 - 10:08 p.m.� I applied for yet another new job today. This one is another clerk position, but it pays $4.00 more an hour than my current clerk position does. Plus it's at a place where there would be room for advancement. I still hate applying for jobs. I hate trying to sell myself, make myself stand out among the 100s of other applicants with the same skills and experience that I have. When I was unemployed (back when I first started this diary in June 2000) I must have sent out close 150 resumes. I got five interviews, and just the one job offer. And I maybe only heard back from 2 or 3 other places I applied to. Job searching is just so disheartening. The whole situation made me feel like the world was trying to tell me I was a big loser who nobody wanted. Even now that I'm doing it while employed at a job where I know I'm wanted, the rejection (or even just the thought of it) is depressing. Except instead of feeling like a big unwanted loser, I just feel trapped.
