I have been looking for a new job since March. Every week I send out at least 15 to 20 applications, all related to my skills and uptil now I have not received a single positive response. I have already done more than 200 and astonishingly I am still going strong, still sending out applications, beautifying my CV every now and then and hoping to get a good answer every week. Still haven't given up, haven't got frustrated, haven't lost hope.
I come from from a very closely knit religious extended family who believe in staying together , doing most of the things together and frown upon spending a lot of time with friends, late night outs and stuff like that. But since my childhood, I have been a loner. I am not religious, I do not approve of the rituals being performed on certain days of the year and everyone in the family is expected to stay at home, ignoring any other commitments/planned events. I do not like these things and I want to experience staying alone. I wish to live my life on my own terms.
I want to leave this town, go away and work somewhere else.. Live there with no strings attached.. My brother was trying to move here for his studies.. Now that his passage is clear, I do not have any more concerns..
The only thing I'm concentrating on right now is getting a new job. I have identified a position in Australia within the same company, which is almost perfect for my profile. The work involved is almost exactly the same as what I'm doing now and I also have a decent level of experience in the role here. So I have slightly high expectations from this one... waiting for an answer eagerly this time..
