applying yourself

Job applications suck. This is for many reasons. Firstly, because it implies you are in need of (a) a job, or (b) a change, and are therefore dissatisfied with your lot, justifiably or otherwise. Secondly, because every application is different, so the struggle to create the perfect personal statement is recurring and ongoing. And thirdly, because the process is so drawn out. That is:

Hearing about job + Request application pack + Complete application + Submit + Wait to hear + Receive notification of interview + Prepare for interview + Go for interview + Agonise
+ Get rejected again = At least a month.

The exceptions to this lengthly sum, from my experience, are schools (will usually decide on day of interviews who to employ) and Centra (filled out a form, met the manager, agreed when to start.) Unfortunately, I neither want to teach, not get abused for constantly eating during my shift again...

Leave for Brazil in about 27 days, and realistically need to be employed before then.
