Job Disappointment

I got turned down for a short-term role yesterday, one that would have been ideal.

It was with a major media player in a new and emerging area. Though the pay was not very good, it would have enabled me to accrue some invaluable experience in precisely the right area and put a very high-profile organisation on my CV.

It would also have got my CV back on track in the sector having left it for the last year-and-a-half. To say that I am disappointed therefore is an understatement.

What was most frustrating of all is that I had been registered with the recruitment agency for a few months. They knew that I was looking for a role like this but failed to inform me about it. It was only when I called on the off-chance to catch up with them that they told me about it!

In true Asperger style I feel that I want to inform of my displeasure and the sense of unfairness I feel they have extended to me. I know, however, that doing so will not achieve anything and will only instead, alienate them and make them less pre-disposed towards me going forward and likely to tell me about other roles.

Its bite my lip time and move on!
