job hunting - what a fucking nightmare Looking for a new job is like a vicious roller coaster. You have your ups and downs. And even though the ride isn't over, I feel like throwing up RIGHT NOW.
I know what I want - a multi-media content developer position. All I want to do is work with AUDIO, VIDEO, & FLASH. Is that so much to ask for? How many different ways do I have to say this in my resume? You know... in the "Objective" area???!!! Can't you please read? IT SAYS IN MY RESUME!!!! Read it, and then read it again. Why can't I find these jobs? You would think that employers are always looking for someone like that. Why is it that I can't find it?
Maybe it's because I live in Virginia?!?!?! Ah, fucking Virginia. Because if I lived in Atlanta (where I used to live), companies would be all over me. ATL has so many communication hubs and web design firms, it'd be a piece of cake to get a AUDIO, VIDEO, & FLASH job there.
Ugh, I have a head ache. I am working with this one recruiter and he is pissing me off. It's very hard to tell a dumbass recruiter what your skills are, when the asshole doesn't even know what I'm talking about. I told him "I enjoy AUDIO, VIDEO, & FLASH... and yes, I can do HTML & CSS." Grrrrr.
I don't want to be a programmer. And that's all I get offers for. Doesn't anyone work with FLASH anymore? AUDIO? |
