Let the hunt begin

Last night, I sent out my resume to 2 companies. Praying that they'd take notice of my profile and contact me soon. I don't want it to be like other resumes that gets piled up in a tray, dusty and all.



As I came in the office today, I checked my email immediately. Eager to see a reply from either one of my prospects. But my heart sank when I didn't see any new mail. Oh well, may be later. I was optimistic and praying that the email will arrive. I checked my email every 30 minutes.



I'm no longer in the mood to work. Today, most of it was extra curricular activities. A little bit of work here and there.. say 20%. And the 80% was focused to blogging.



A co-worker had an issue of Gadgets Mag in his table and showed me an article on Blogs and Wikis. Now I know the history of blogs (which is slang for Web Logs..thus the name bLogs). I also read about a community of asian bloggers, Rice Bowl Journals. It was very interesting and I decided to join and register. Now, I'm just waiting for the confirmation email that I'm eligible to be part of this community...I'm still waiting.



And finally before I get to end my day at work, I checked my email again.. and there it was..the reply that I was waiting for since the time I sent the email. A good news! I'm invited to go to their office tomorrow and take the exam. Oh yes, this is it!



And I thought that's the end of it but it wasn't. Atfer my Yoga class, I checked my mobile and saw 2 missed calls. I checked the number and its from the other prospect. So I called her number and she told me that she already endorsed my resume to the Int'l Recruitment Manager and that she'll call me with in the week to do a pre-interview. How's that to end my day!

Hm. Waiting is always one of the worst things.
But glad that your day went well with the two replies. Hope the job interviews will go well too :)
