I got the 'You're really great, but you suck on a level so profound as to disable us from hiring you" letter for the only place I've interviewed at.
Crap!
But, hey. I guess it just wasn't in the cards to work an establishment with 'Bacon' in it's name. I fell like perhaps that would have distracted me form my career goals, and set me on a path of pork obsession. That couldn't be good for anyone.
Harrumph.
OHHH don't be sad! I had a lovely collection of those letters before I got my first job after I graduated. Don't let the bad man get you down:)
Thanks Laura :) I really thought this one was in the bag!
Ah well. I guess I'll start a binder of 'we don't want you' letters. I do love organizing!
:)
Martha Stewart suggests catagorizing them by date, and also color-coding them by embarassment level. She reccomends using Marigold for "eh, I didn't really want that job anyway", Pink Blush for "I guess I was pretty underqualified for this position", Robin's egg blue for "Wow, maybe I bombed the interview", Lavender for "maybe I should have flashed the recruiter my boob", and Slate Gray for "maybe I SHOULDN'T have flashed the recruiter my boob".
Happy organizing!
