So, I got a few couple rejection emails and one rejection phone call. I think the phone call was the worst. I was expecting rejection emails, but to get a phone call, that seemed like such a good sign!
Only to be told that because of my immigration/visa status I was considered a risky hire. Which is a position I can understand and respect. The company doesn’t want to spend or waste the resources on training somebody that may not get their visa renewed in a few months, and then have to go through the whole situation again.
That doesn’t mean that the rejection doesn’t sting.
However.
I have to remind myself that I have only been in Country for a week and four hours. And that I’ve only had applications out for three days. Somewhere out there, there will be a company that will give me a chance, that will see me as a risk worth taking.
I just need to get back up.
Definitely going for a nice long walk a bit later, after the sun gets less intense.
And then, going to make that tandoori chicken for dinner, wrapped in a tortilla with some cucumber, broccoli and other tasty things.
After I do the dishes, hang the laundry, etc.
