The rollercoaster of being unemployed has hit a few curves this week. I have been rejected for a position at a local company that I had been pretty hopeful about. I am well qualified for the role, it offered a good salary, a great location and a really good employer. It just seems that it was not to be and that hit me quite hard.
Then I had an interview with a company I’ve been talking with for a few months. I don’t know if this particular position will pan out but we got on well and my CV is being passed around. And a meeting is planned with another company who are looking for a contract person, to do what I do. That would be a great opportunity, but it still has to be won.
Then, the merest glimmer of hope on the horizon for me personally. A friend is setting up their own business and asked for some help with their website; SEO, content review and all that entails. It will be a free service but one that my brain desperately needs to get itself wrapped around.
So much so that this afternoon whilst reading, editing and researching, my tea went cold. Which tells me more than you can imagine.
