Talk about stress!!!
So I have a Bachelors in Studio Art and a Masters in Graphic Design, but still can’t find a job in the Graphic Design field. I keep looking and sending out my information, but it doesn’t seem to help. So on Friday at the job I have now HR sends out an internal posting for an Advertising Assistant postion. Now this isn’t exactly what I went to school for, but I’ve been with the company for about 2 and a half year now and have already moved myself up once within the company, what could it hurt to try and do it again? Plus I already had a try at this job before, last year when I had to step in for someone while he was on vacation and he does kind of the same job. Anyway, I sent my resume, and the head of HR asked me to tell my boos and she also sent the information on to the Advertising VP. I e-mailed my boss and he said he was a big fan of growth and opportunity, so that was approval to go for it. Then Monday I emailed the Advertising VP just to make sure she had gotten my info. and let her know if she wanted I would like to meet with her to go over my qualifications and what the position entails. Well yesterday I got an e-mail from her asking to see me the next day (today) to discuss the position and such. So I have that meeting today, on top of about 2-3 others. Talk about stress!!!
(I just needed to vent and get it out of my system. Thanks for reading.)
Hey, any thing added to your resume is a plus kiddo! Not to mention the learning experience… it only adds to who you are. I say, go for it because it isnt written in granite that you have to take the position.
Try to toss the stress up in the air, its always there if you wanna hold it for a little while (lol-talk about the blind leading the blind—I better listen to my own advice)
Keep the faith!
