First off, fist-bump for sticking with it like I am. Finding jobs rn sucks even with the prospect of better minimum wage in the States. So I feel that hardcore.
Second, luckily, I have done both of those things. I'm actually considering a second email but it's only been 7 days and I don't want to sound needy, pushy, or desperate. It's just incredibly frustrating when I know I would be perfect for the job at hand and yet they aren't even considering me despite my credentials. With what I want to do this year, having this job is almost imperative. But if they keep posting job offerings, I'll keep applying! Hopefully that will catch their attention.
I mean it's just that painful wait of having people catch up with where you want to be. I'm tired of my current job, but luckily I *have* a current job, you know? I just want a different better job than the one I currently have now. It's not particularly rewarding anymore, especially when the company really has no openings for moving to better places.
Ah, sorry, that's enough of my job-hunting ranting. ^^; I know a ton of people are going through the same stuff which is totally understandable. At the same time, I wish I had more patience, and didn't sit here jumping from one foot to another in anticipation of hearing back from a job i desperately want to have.
