Alexey,

Every interview is practice for the next one. I think you will become more confident at this and in the end you will land a job that's right for you.

From what you say, this really wasn't what you wanted.

Much love,
Larry

Mark,

Good luck to you too. Will you be interviewing for something when you get back to Toronto?

Much love,
Larry

Well Alex,


Looks to me even though they misrepresented the positions. From your post you did get the job offer.

Good job man. Keep on fighting for whats is yours.


Fight the good fight

Mark,

Good luck to you. I hope you will find a good job. I know it.

Thank you for believeing in me. It is important to know that you believe I can do that. It is true that what I want doesn't come easily. I need practice, and yes, I could start to work, but the position was unfit.

Good luck,
Alexey

Hi,

I would like to thank you once again for your support. Also I want to tell you a story of one of the interviews that I had. It was not good. I am shocked.

"Triggers"

The interview was approaching its end when that lady said that I'll need, above all, to make a "test task" at home. I had been seeking a position of marketing researcher, and she said I would make a data analysis and make a presentation in English. All for free! I said "no, give me a probation period and pay money." She also said "no" and when I was turning around to take my clothes, she grabbed a copy of my resume, ripped it and put in the trash can. I did not even leave the room...

It was shock. I didn't realize it at the time, but I recalled what had happened hours later. I am glad that left those people as fast as I could.
It was a hard day.

Guys, I hope that your good advises will apply to me someday. Also I know that it is not bad that didn't get that job. The more important thing is to believe that after failures, I'll still find a suitable and enjoyable work. Wish me good luck.

Alexey

Alexey,

One thing that a survivor often find it difficult to do is stand his ground when he knows he is being used and exploited.

So congratulations! You figured out in a second what was going on and you refused to be exploited. Let her tear up your application and throw it in the trash can. It sounds like the trash can is the place where that job belongs anyway.

Much love,
Larry

Thanks Larry!

Well said - the trash can. I think this way too.

Thanks for understanding.

Alexey

Alexey,

Sorry about that experiance but at least you won't have to work with her in the future. I am proud of you for not letting her push you into doing something you were not comfortable with.

Hi Dale,

Thank you for support. I told my parents about the possibility that I could be coerced into strange job, and they helped me to figure out what to do before the interview.

I hope we'll talk soon. Thanks for email. I'll reply soon, and I am proud for you!

Your friend,
Alexey
