I just want to offer encouragement to those out there who are still struggling through the trials of finding gainful employment. It has taken determination, tenacity, and the refusal to give in to defeat, but in the end it will be worth it. For the last year I have faithfully submitted. countless resumes through a number of employment sights. I, at times, know that I easily submitted at least 100 resumes in a weeks time. I had mabe 20 actual interviews during this time. I admit that in the beginning, whenever I received that dreaded e mail; "We would like to thank you for your interest in our company, BUT...", I would feel devastated. Eventually , I adopted the attitude of, " You don't and probrably won't ever know that you just passed over what would have been the best thing that could have happened for your place of buisness." I am convinced that this was the turning point for me. That air of confidence began to show itself in each of the next interviews. Now , here I am, a gainfully employed, 58 year young lady looking forward to the future!
