Failure to secure an internship

[t0rnad0]

All these failed attempts to secure an internship is really giving my confidence a trashing. Of those that I applied for, many do not even call me for an interview

let each interview be a experience to hone your skills. we don't get lucky the first time round you know. (at least for most people)

oh another thing - it may not be that you are not good, but that there's someone more suitable.

hey, thanks for the advice. i know that not everyone gets it. but they were hiring 3 interns for the job i was interested in, so i really had high hopes... i'm just feeling disillusioned now.

or some one more able to rim's the interviewer's ass.

chin up dear, there are more pit-falls in life, and all u need to to roll a sucessful saving throw

hahaha. my interviewers were both female. maybe they were looking for better eye candies, especially since the office is 100% female working environment! i just didn't expect it to be so tough for me to find a job. i guess now i know.

Well... If life is served up on a silver platter, all of us would be getting minister's pay, zero overtime, we'll all look tall, dark, gorgeous and sexy and we'll be having sex all the time!!!!!

Internship means nothing one lah... So dun beat yourself up about it... They'll regret hiring those other lazy students you keep talking about when they all eat snake and laze ard complaining why their lives are so hard...

Then again... maybe becos you weren't setting the right image during interview or leaving a lasting impression... What were you wearing for the interview???

[t0rnad0]

MR TAN!!! are you insinuating that i dress like a slob when i go for interviews? i dress the way all other ppl dress when they go for interviews! shirt, pants and tie. what else can i wear?

but obviously there is something that i am not doing right. hopefully i can find that out soon and improve...

LOL... Mr Chua... Shirt, tie and pants??? It's like saying "How come i dun look any better than Brad Pitt??? He has 2 eyes, a nose, 2 ears and a mouth... So do i!!!!"

[t0rnad0]

alright then, mr fashionista, what should a poor old student wear to an interview? you can't expect us to accessorize with fancy desginer clips and cufflinks etc mah. they are not interviewing candidates for the position of CEO lor. i just want a bloody internship!
