Frustrations of Job Search (Perceptions)
Yea.. Due to bad economy situations, I'm shaking my leg at home now while searching for a new job...
Feeling like a hamburger now due to the following (own perception):
"We just wanted a diploma holder but you are holding a degree. Qualifications does not match..."
"Oh. we are not looking for distance learning degrees. We only want local graduates..."
From my job search, I realised that one particular recruitment agency only look for local grads and does not bother to reply to me at all even though I've sent in a million resumes... Thus I've come to the perception that most recruitment agencies do not bother themselves with people like me and focuses only on local grads..
It's not a wonder too since it's easier for them to help local grads get jobs and they can gain more commissions this way.. Therefore, why would anyone (recruitment agencies) wanna help me look for job? Damn realistic...
For now, giving up on recruitment agencies...
Yea yea... I am complaining now... Too bad I wasn't hardworking in the past...
Therefore, in this country, I've developed the perception that it does not matter how good and capable you are (unless you are in top management like CEO, CFO etc..), it's the certificates you hold..
People like me are never given a real chance at a good company or a good position...
No matter where I was, I've always out-performed fellow colleagues and bosses recognize that and I've been greatly valued.. It's not from my own mouth, but it's derived from feedbacks that I got...
However, it's just damn difficult for me to even get a job as an essential personnel... Just because of my lousy educational background...
It's damn de-motivating... I should just get a lousy job and rot my life away and pass my knowledge to my future generation (if any) and hope they have better prospects than me..
Guess that the knowledge and experience I've gained through the years of constantly pursuing knowledge will go down the drain and everything will be in vain...
Or is heaven forcing me to start a business??? Haha....
