I received an unemployment check. I have a phone interview this evening, a final interview tomorrow am, an initial interview tomorrow pm, and I just learned that I am still in the running for a position for which I initially interviewed a month ago.
Problem is that they are all for jobs that I probably wouldn't want to do even if I actually received an offer.
The good news is that I have a blockbuster scheduled for Monday, which will give me something to which I can look forward over the weekend.
It's been nearly two months now, so I've unfortunately learned not to become overly excited about any positive developments in my search.
I mean, I remain hopeful that I will eventually land my dream job with a dream salary, but my worst fear after 60 days of 24/7 searches, interviews and rejections is that I may need to accept a position just for the paycheck. Is that really how this grueling endeavor might end?
As Jack Nicholson memorably asked: "What if this is as good as it gets?"
